Darling's going to be fine, if you multiply his height by weight then divide by 3 you get a largeness quotient of 6048.3 (recurring), where as Davis has a largeness quotient of a whopping 6304. Now I'm assuming that Darling, like any good AFL player, would have factored that calculation into his mark attempt but I think where he went wrong was in miscalculating the drag coefficient created by Phil Davis' hair which caused an unexpected lag in his leap. Basically Darling would have expected his elbow to come into contact with Davis' upper arm. Darling should get off, all he has to do is explain that he forgot to carry the 1 which meant that he worked out Davis' hair drag coefficient was 0.42. I mean us plebs sitting in our couches at home all know that it's 0.73 but on the field in the heat of the moment it's an easy mistake to make. I think that as long as Darling shows Michael Christian his working out and where he went wrong he'll be fine.
And was all that computed in 0.8 of a second?
