J Brown trying to separate the Cotchin hit from the concussion because Shiel played for 10 minutes.

**** me

Brownie, where did he get concussed. In the medical?
All of Browns concussions have left him with no knowledge of concussion

I don't even believe the Shiel concussion was delayed. Looked concussed immediately. I'd say GWS tried to let him play out the game and when it looked dicey they pulled the pin.

Hate the fact that players get suspended for attack on the ball but by precedent and letter of the law, Cotchin should miss if the Tiger's get up. I don't think it will happen and would be disappointed if it did but if there was any integrity in the game he would go.

The lack of intense pressure in most of the finals this year is bizarre.

We saw plenty of better pressure games in the H&A.
I think the pressure has been high...it's just that one team has been able to get on top and dominate the other to the point where the games basically over at half time...which then leads to less pressure in the game.

The pressure in the Tigers vs Geelong game was off the charts.

Cotchin will be fine, collision going for the ball, much like Hodge when he smashed a Carlton players face....

I would be more worried about the Tigers performance thus far, GWS far more cleaner end to end.....

Cotchin can't even afford a fine. Which is lucky because he won't get one

If the Tigers win he'll be walking out against a higher ranked team at his home ground, wearing his home jumper and tossing a two headed coin.
He'll still kick against the wind.
