Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

it was a pure 2 guys at the ball moment
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

Just saw it - was fair enough too. Couldnt see which Hawthorn player it was, but he should have definitely received the free for high contact. The umpire was right there - instead pinged for holding the ball. Disgraceful.

It was McGlynn and the umpire was Scott McClaren who should be dropped for his performance. Was pretty poor.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

This is a totally different situation to Franklin's. Lloyd was clearly going for the ball - you can see his arms out to get it. Sewell spun and his head caught the point of Lloyd's shoulder. Totally incidental from an accidental collision.

Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

I loved how he came off mouthing to the Bombers bench . . . and then surprise, surprise . . . comes back on and doesn't do shit.

Makes his old man look like a rocket scientist!

I would dearly love you to say that to his face, instead of typing it on a message board. Would make for great viewing to see your nose plastered across your face.
Remember, compared to him, you're a petulant human being.

Whatever you are on, I want some. 10x worse than Franklin.

I agree that Lloyd did open his arms to try to lay the tackle. Having said that he should probably get two, one with early plea
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

Just watched the vid on the other page. Looked more like a collison then a bump. Lloyd wasn't even looking at Sewell when he hit him. Certainly not inetnional, and should get off imo.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

i've uploaded the clip to youtube.. its still encoding but heres the link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmkwseLx5Aw

[youtube]gmkwseLx5Aw[/youtube]

regarding the quality.. this is my first youtube upload, but it says This video is still being processed. Video quality may improve once processing is complete.

so we'll see if it improves..

Just replayed it about 20 times, he might be a bit stiff if he gets rubbed out for that.

Ironic much? :)

You're not only too soft for football, you're too soft for an internet forum.

Harden TFU!

Agree. I think the difference is that Franklin lined Cousins up - his intention was to go the man not the ball.

Lloyd on the other hand did not line Sewell up with the intention of going for the man not the ball. I think that Essendon will have a fair arguement that it was just a collision and Sewell keeping his eyes purely on the ball left himself open.

Lets not overeact because he got knocked out. Lloyd did not go for the hip and shoulder and hence is not responsible in the same way Franklin is.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

Did Sewell even have possession?
If he didn't then tackling wasn't an option or else it's a free kick for holding the man.
If he did have possession then it was only about a nano second before Lloyd collided with him.
The ball does shoot out and makes it appear that Sewell may have had clean possession of it but that could have just been because of the force of the contact.
IMO you can see Lloyd bend/stoop ever so slightly to either avoid high contact or to generate more power for when he collected him.
Will be interesting to see the outcome.
 
I really wanted someone to just lay out Lloyd. Diving, dirty & a ****.

****, I hate Essendon. First week of finals should sort them out, they are useless.

he must go, i dont want another week about BUDDY.
if he gets less then 2, the Tribunal will be even more of a joke then it already is.
Zac dawson got 2 weeks for a bump with no head or neck contact and jeff gleson said what he did was allowed.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

Pure accident. anyone who says otherwise is deluded by their own prejudices.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

Ridiculous question.

I'm happy to "look you in the eye" and say I think he should get off.

What the MRP and tribunal decide is anyone's guess.

Ridiculous to think that that was accidental. What the tribunal will decide is that he is gone......... for about 4-5 weeks,

having possesion has nothing to do with the new law. if you make a bumb to an oppenent and make contact to the head or neck you are quilty of rough conduct
