Do you even know what a "king hit" is? A deliberate, sudden punch to the head. And you are still saying Dangerfield deliberately punched Vlaustin to the head?

Just to remind readers, this incident involved two players charging at the ball from opposite directions at full speed. It happened in 2020, not 2025, and the official version of events was as follows:

"The incident between Geelong Cats' Patrick Dangerfield and Richmond's Nick Vlastuin from the first quarter of Saturday's game between Richmond and the Geelong Cats was assessed. The ball is loose. Vlastuin and Dangerfield approach the ball from opposing directions. Dangerfield punches the ball and in the process makes high contact to Vlastuin. It was the view of the MRO that Dangerfield's actions were not unreasonable in the circumstances. No further action was taken."

If the roles had been reversed, and Vlaustin made head contact with Dangerfield what would you verdict have been? We all know...
