He's already missed out on one Brownlow for that.If he had cracked open Greenwood's skull with his head it would have been called incidental contact.

What do you expect when David Neitz is on the panel. Has an irrational hatred for Freo

Don’t mind it in isolation.
IF they hadn’t let every other ****** off while throwing elbows
Yeah, would have been better if he hadn't of left the ground.
Not saying it isn't biased, just you have less chance if you leave the groundWhat about if you run 3 steps and throw an elbow at a guy behind the play?

Boxers Coxers. AFL is less tolerant of head high impact if the player leaves the ground. Duty of care is with the player without the ball.Fyfe left the ground to try to get above what looked like a fist/arm/elbow coming at his head.
And by jumping up, there was actually less force/impact in the collision than what there would have been if Fyfe had have stuck the elbow into Greenwood's head while solidly positioned on the ground.
Too many people have been brainwashed to think that just because Fyfe jumped up and had an elbow raised it must have been intentional ... that is just the narrative that the MRP pushed but there really is no basis of fact to that. Think about it. Do professional fighters jump up in the air before they punch their opposition to generate more force? No. They have a solid heavy stance or driving movement forward (not upward) which produces more energy at impact.
Jack Daniels usually does the trick for meI'm on the edge....
This 2018 season...please someone the pain
What do you mean ? We can appeal again ?Gee, that was a good argue put forth. Are we going to appeal?
