Player Watch #19 Tom Lynch - Larynx Injury - TBC

[voorhees]

Give the media a metre of rope and they take a mile. ****ing dogs the lot of them.

As I said, they've been waiting to hang Lynch for 8 years since he walked out on Gold Coast and won 2 flags.

summed it up perfectly...
He is going to be crucified for he is tom lynch..
any more then 3, we should be ropeable.

Hopefully gets 12+ as only something that ridiculous will convince the club to do something about it

Watch the footage, it is a punch. Why are you blind?

Round arm with straight arm isn't a punch.

 

[Nostradumbass]

Round arm with straight arm isn't a punch.

Clothesline?

 

[Lacustrus]

Colonwod flog on SEN doing the late show throwing Lynch and our club over hot coals.

SEN ,your Richmond hating Sports Network.

Why listen to that shit , it’s all ads and flogs

 

[biaseddustyfan]

Clothesline?

Hug

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

Umpires refuse to protect Cut Lunch from illegal tactics...
Am happy for him to take the law into his own hands...may stop the bullsheet...
Don't care as long as we have F+S!

 

[Groupie_]

imagine the protection hed get if lynch chose colonwood

 

[Serenity_Now]

Why couldn’t the AFL just say that the incident doesn’t fit in their little criteria box and they were sending it to the tribunal for deliberation. FMD severe impact? Every incident is severe impact in that case

 

[Stars align]

If everything is outcome based how does the potential to cause injury even get a mention.There is no potential anything as the outcome has been proven with butts playing on unaffected

 

[Freddy Swift]

Intentional - Medium Impact - High Contact is 2 weeks.

Only medium impact cause Butts wasn't injured, nor do I believe he did an HIA for concussion.

The potential to cause injury means MRO can upgrade it to 3+.

Mate you are bringing up an incident from 4 years ago
The AFL’s view towards contact with the head has changed dramatically

Get with the times and come to grips with it now
It will save you a lot of posts

Amazing how Moderators always take the AFL’s view of things.

Need the Carlton lawyer, he would walk away with 3 Brownlow votes

 

[Karp3_dm]

imagine the protection hed get if lynch chose colonwood

“He went through the wrong door, we’ve all done it haven’t we guys?”

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Is there anything we can do to help?

Not turn upto games.
Oh wait

I've been swooped by magpies worse.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

It's been 5 years since we did anything but those 3 flags have had a lasting effect on a lot of oppo fans that I don't think they will ever get over.

Any Purrticular fan base?

 

[Coach_Required]

Any Purrticular fan base?

Any that we embarrassed during the finals.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Think it’s just for a rule that came out a few years ago where any hit to the head must be graded under the potential to cause injury so it automatically gets the maximum grading

Tigers can still try and argue it down but don’t think they will have any luck


Edit
The rule change occurred in 2022 fwiw

How many weeks did Maynard get again?

 

[Oldmanuncle]

I keep seeing the incident reported as severe & high yet can't seem to recall Butts doing an HIA.
The first thing I'd ask for in the tribunal is the results on the HIA.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

That counts out Carltoon

 

[Coach_Required]

That counts out Carltoon

Theirs is just pure jealousy.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Clothesline?

Between clothesline and hanger.lol

As many have wanted to tell me "ItS Not THe OUtCOmE iTS THe ACtiON".

 

[guruisatiger]

Who cares

 

[Coach_Required]

CFL this week have flipped the script on outcome based suspensions to Action based.

Will return to normal next week after they have executed Lynch.
