All this timing of the ball stuff and snap second decision making, when to mark and when to spoil etc, can be put down to it being only his second game of footy for about 10 months.

Happens on occasion.Wow, so much sense...
Was tongue in cheek and a reflection on how we've seen the VFL.Btw Ziebell should’ve been dropped for those comments and asked are you a premiership captain? What right do to you have to pot the younger guys making a name for themselves.
The only way this ship is going to right is if we change the mindset and culture of the players.

Can someone please post the caption of burton flattening Higgins. I’m trying to work out how one gets off and the other us 2 weeksBurton got off because they changed the rules after LT on Reid.

Cops a week.
To be honest I’m over the afl rules changes/interpretations as it is . The way I see it is that Sam was bumped or probably a better term went to sheppered the ball carrier. The damage was caused because Rohan wasn’t aware of his surroundings. If Sam hadn’t gone in there was every chance Rohan would have run the north bloke down and holding the ball .If you're referring to Durdin (probably) getting two weeks, then it's already been explained: the rule has been changed since the Burton hit.
Must challenge. Abhorrently ridiculous that he should go for that
I cannot believe he copped a week and Gaz & Fyfe didn't even get a look in.
What the **** is with the bias towards stars of the game.
Should challenge and get out in front of the media.Must challenge. Abhorrently ridiculous that he should go for that

Say we are challenging knowing that it won’t get overturned, but we believe this farce needs to be brought to attention.
A legitimately executed football act should never be suspended. But in the current AFL bizarro world, sniping is ok, accidents in the course of playing the game are not.
His only legal option was to bump/shephard for his team mate. The commentators who brought up the Burton/Higgins incident are idiots. Burton had the option to tackle/smother and should've been suspended.

Mine too. But it wouldn't have been hard, I confess.I thought he was impressive considering he came in off almost no preparation. His interview after the VFL hit out last week suggested he was blowing out the cobwebs and needed a few games under his belt. So to be thrown in as an emergency, he surpassed my expectations.
Why didn't the club challenge the Durdin verdict oh that's right his dad didn't play for the club .Imagine what Eddie would have said if it was a Collingwood player !!!
But then again, if he was wearing black stripes instead of blue, it would have been play on....
