Jason Cloke has no one to blame but himself

No, it's risky. There's a difference.

I mean, we can crash into packs, bump players, drive their heads into the ground etc, but we can't have a leg accidentally touch another leg, or a fist accidentally touch a head in a marking contest.....

Yes, we can, it happens all the time. What we cant have is a swinging arm spoil that makes solid contact with the head and results in a player being knocked out.

Is it so hard to believe that Cloke simply mistimed his jump/spoil?

Is it so hard to understand that people don't agree?

So it's "reckless" to make a mistake whilst going for the ball in a Preliminary Final?

It can be, yes.
