If Mumford takes out Dylan Grimes, how long does Grimes have to stay down for before the umpires and medical staff realise he isn't staging?

Don’t be ridiculous.
Incidents like the gaff one happen once every 1000 games.
It’s a brutal game but not that brutal to imagine we have to bring in a send off rule for some rare moment.
Punishment is severe at the tribunal.
Players like gaff pay the price.
You very rarely see players throw punches these days, even Gaff's hit was more of a forceful push that went wrong when Brayshaw ducked into it.

Fremantle may beg to differ.
They got no justice, all they got was a massive disadvantage for their game.
And why is being rare a good justification for not having a rule?
It wasn't a deliberate king hit, it was only the fact that Brayshaw's jaw was broken that he got so many weeks, would have been 2 or 3 weeks otherwise.
Freo got thrashed in that game, made no difference to the result and Gaff spent a lot of time on the bench after that so may as well have been sent off.

Giving an attention seeking flog like Razor Ray a chance to use red cards, yeah I can't see that ending badly at all.
Should only come in if teams are sending out players to specifically take out others. At the moment that’s not happening so it wouldn’t actually prevent any incidents.
As an aside, all the media that seems to be hoping Mumford does some dog act on Saturday is disgusting.
That’s not fair on anyone involved.

What was farcical was the West Coast having a huge advantage for most of the game against Fremantle because Gaff king hit Brayshaw off the ball.
Imagine king hitting someone off the ball and being rewarded for it by gaining a man advantage for the game! What other sport in the world would allow that?

Its been trialled for 20 years at every other level.Send off rule yes, but only in Grand Finals for starters. Maybe for all matches after it has been trialed. It would be quite simple, if an umpire senses something deserved a send off, he signals to an official upstairs who reviews it.
Yeah real reward for Gaff missing the GF. Be the sits at home at night laughing at how good that accidental high hit on Brayshaw wasWhat was farcical was the West Coast having a huge advantage for most of the game against Fremantle because Gaff king hit Brayshaw off the ball.

Nah your post was just crap. Picked what is an isolated incident out of modern footy which was an accident as the base for a new rule. Gaff missed possibly his only chance at a premiership but you think he must have been happy at what he did because they had a one man advantage. If it's such an advantage to go out and belt someone at the start of a game how comes it hasn't happened in 20 yearsWay to completely and utterly miss the point.
