The most amazing thing that's come out of this whole incident is that Bartel, who was if you believe some media reports serverely concussed & in hospital for days played & played well just 8 days after the incident. A credit to His courage no doubt, but if his injuries were as serious as the news reports suggested why did Geelong play him against Essendon? Another concussion could've led to more servere long term repercussions.

The main point I think the Dees fans have tried to make here is that Beamer was stiff in that the surface caused the damage to Bartel & any contact made was minimal at best. Wrong place at the wrong time for Brent but he'll kick on.

yeh but Brent just had to be used as an example to the rest of the players that you cant do this. unfortuantly he didnt do what they are promoting against. i reckon if he didnt have that hard look on his face at the time he would have gotten off :p
