Scott Thompson on Callum Sinclair

Was there anything in this, they have rubbed out players this season for less?
Swinging arm, probably a little late, to the head. Think Sinclair only got a blood nose not broken.
Careless, high, medical report for the impact?

Is this because the Roos play Richmond this weekend and you are nervous?

Ha, nah just popped up on my newsfeed and had a look here to read about it but couldn’t find anything. I didn’t see the game, just a short clip so asking the question if there was anything in it. I guess not, all good, play on.

How it was not looked at when it was the lead story in the AFL's own match review preview item on Monday.

How this was not cited but Witherden got a fine is baffling.

I think Thompson was just dead tired, Callum juggled the mark and when Thommo realised he didn't grab it he tried to spoil but he couldn't get off the ground. Nose is pretty sensitive, a glancing blow can make it piss blood. I've seen a lot of batshit stupid stuff from Thommo over the years and I wont make any excuses for those but I don't honestly think there was much in this one, it just didn't look good because of the blood which can come from negligible contact.

I am just surprised the MRP made a sensible decision.
 
Caddy got a week for something pretty similar. Thompson's a known thug who's done things like this many times before. Typical inconsistent MRP. I saw the footage and it looked pretty obvious to me that it was deliberate.
