i use fanfooty for stats now but i don't like the player profiles not showing career games and stats which i cant find and trying to find news stories is putrid. I will just use the port youtube channel for the videos too.
His mate Jordan Lewis just said on radio that "there's no issue with that tackle".
‘Stunned’ backlash to AFL’s black eye
Melbourne legend Garry Lyon has smacked down the decision to fine Shaun Burgoyne for a dangerous tackle on the weekend rather than suspend him.www.news.com.au
Concussion expert Alan Pearce, who has conducted research at the request of the AFL, was also concerned Burgoyne got off lightly.
“Those are the kinds of impact tackles that lead towards long-term brain damage,” Pearce told the Herald Sun. “Dangerfield wasn’t concussed but they are the sort of heavy impacts we are so concerned about.
“This is an obvious example of rough play that can lead to long-term brain damage.”
Western Bulldogs champion Brad Johnson said only fining Burgoyne sends a “terrible message to the footy community”.
Former Richmond and Western Bulldogs star Nathan Brown believes Burgoyne benefited from the “good bloke” factor, suggesting another player without his esteemed reputation in the game would have been suspended.
“If (GWS star) Toby Greene had done the same thing the other night it would have been one or two weeks automatically,” Brown said on the Sunday Footy Show.
“Maybe there was a bit of a ‘good bloke’ factor about it.”

I'm going to enjoy the Hawks slide down the ladder, but Clarkson is the one coach you'd give a pass to trying to eek out that one last flag with your aged premiership players. It'll be more what they do at the trade / draft table this year that'll see whether they try to just hang around the mark or make the hard choices now it's clear they aren't going to luck their way to a final flag with their remaining premiership players.

Funnily enough hearing Adam Cooney questioning S. Burgers credentials for a future HoF nom was refreshing "Plenty of team success only one time AA, I'm not sure" .. surprised he made it back to his car alive.
