Patrick Dangerfield 'dangerous tackle' - gone or safe?

[Chadwiko]

I genuinely don't know anymore.

 

[BF Tiger]

Has a history of wilfully hurting opponents.

 

[fusion]

Just let channel 7 run thr tribunal: "it's almost like paddy's trying to hold him up"

 

[ZEV]

Walsh tried to smash his head into the ground in the second quarter when he got tackled

There was no secondary motion by Dangerfield to sling shot his head into the ground.

I reckon Walsh exasperated the action and nearly KOd himself by trying to draw the free kick.

1 week

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

1 week. Arms pinned, head hits the ground.
Lucky Walsh wasn't concussed otherwise it would be 2 at least.
7 weeks out and takes less than 30 seconds for him to get rubbed out for another 1. Hilarious

 

[mick06]

But weird, he didn't exactly drive him forward, walsh made a bit of a meal of it

 

[HairyO]

Needs Johnny Cochrane and the Maynard defence.

in his press conference told us yet that he didn’t see it?

 

[Cringle]

It really shouldn’t get anything but none of us really know anymore

He landed on the ball which cannoned his head forward at a great rate of knots. I dislike this sort of contention so much.

Where Dangerfield is in trouble is that he pinned both arms, and dropped his weight to the ground to accelerate the fall.

Walsh did nothing of the sort. His body landed on the ball. If you know anything about momentum, you'd retract this.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

I'm not a fan of Danger, but I don't think that's a dangerous tackle.

 

[Barrybran]

Danger didn't drive Walsh forward and Walsh didn't play for a free. Walsh's knees stuck in the turf and momentum carried him into the ground. It should be considered a good tackle with an unfortunate consequence but I expect the MRP to give Danger two weeks. Given the focus on head trauma I'm not sure how you avoid that incident short of letting the player go.

 

[Barrybran]

I'm not a fan of Danger, but I don't think that's a dangerous tackle.

The irony is Maynard's tackle last week was much worse yet this will get weeks

 

[windyhill]

Gets off that.

 

[Bald]

I don't actually think he should be suspended for this. He held both arms and I understand that but surely you can do that so long as you're not slinging?

It's no shot on Walsh and I may be completely wrong but to me at the time, it appeared that he exaggerated the contact and almost headbutted the ground.

 

[KnaveyBlue]

exasperated

Opinion discarded.

 

[tiger_tough]

Pinned both arms and drove his head into the ground. Has to be at least a week. Was comical when Jordan Lewis

and Bucks said Dangerfield tried to hold him up, what garbage.

Someone at AFL house is oiling up the wheel as we speak.

“It’s important when you’re in a vulnerable position as a player, you’ve got a responsibility to treat players with care,” the Brownlow medallist said on Wednesday.

“And I think if he had his time again, I’d like to think he’d do something different.”

All I can say is I wouldn't give him anything, but what the AFL do is another matter entirely.
