[dazbroncos]

Seems that plenty want to talk about this for whatever reason...

Do it here and dont crash out the other threads.

[HaroLad]

At the game, must've missed it, is it nothing to be worried about?

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Ch7 can't stop talking about it, Lingy keeps bringing it up.

I thought it was a fair tackle, he just held onto Kruezer to long.

a public execution is in order

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Nothing in it.

When Danger stood up and repeatedly curb stomped his already lifeless corpse I thought he went a touch too far, but a fine at most.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Think he's gone. Didn't have to keep going with the tackle. Not what anyone wants to hear but it's true.

 

[Seeds]

gone. held on to him far too long and not back on for the rest of the game. no way he gets off.

He didnt drive him into the ground he couldnt have done anything much different. Just unfortunate for kreuzer but thats footy.

I think we will win next week even if he was suspended but for him to lose a brownlow over that would be rubbish.

Cocky did the exact same thing in Rd11 to Crows player....

nothing to see then or here and both players concussed.

can be argued he thought he had possession as his head was behind his body...

Is it unfortunate... yes... but not MRP worthy

[Lana]

He'll get off, if it wasn't Dangerfield he'd get a week.

 

[Chocoholic]

Sigh.

So I say he is gone, 2 down to 1. I didn't think there was a lot of head contact but unfortunately for a good 2 seconds his head when 1st then shoulder. Like I don't think Danger knew the ball was gone and went with the momentum but MRP judge on the medical reports.

I thought Kruzer hurt his wrist as that is what he was grabbing at. I am no doctor though.

except danger held on to him far longer after the ball had gone. Cocky was also quite lucky that time.

 

[Hinkley29]

Didn't drive him into the ground. Single tackling motion. If anything I thought he was trying to roll him on the side as he went to ground. He will be fine.

The question needs to be asked, does Kruezer exaggerate injuries?

If the player cant see where the ball is he's supposed to let him go in the middle of the tackle?

Really? Cmon now you'd be the first to argue the players are soft and dont finish tackles.

[romeohwho]

Nothing in it. People are getting a bit precious.

 

[the big lebowski]

Stupid rule

Fortunately for danger Brownlow favs don't go for controversial stupid rules

Never underestimate the afl getting the manufactured result they want

[Mningasimisonda]

Channel 7 is working hard to make it an issue.

I think if he gets anything the club would appeal and win.

 

[Willo_]

My first reaction was that Danger was in trouble

But who bloody knows

 

[Reppie]

Can't believe this is being brought up.
Lol.
Won't even be looked at.

 

[Baudolino]

Lack of second motion should save him. Watching replays again though, it does look less cut and dried than I initially thought when I responded to this in the gameday thread, so it could go either way. He didn't drive Kreuzer into the ground IMO but admittedly there are similarities to the Koby Stevens incident that resulted in suspension earlier this year. Not sure. I don't think either result would be a travesty of justice.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Hope the MRP sees it your way. But there's plenty he could of done different. Plenty. The ball was well gone.

 

[David the Cat]

Something for the Carlton flogs to moan about...apart from that, a non issue.
