MRP / Trib. Selwood eye gouging Knight

[CrowsB4hoes]

deserves it's own thread until it's inevitably ignored by the media, AFL & MRP

is there any decent footage of it?

If true, he should get at least 4 weeks.

 

[Scorpus]

He'll get off. Nothing more certain in the universe. Won't even be looked at

I expect Knight to cop a fine for a headbutt to Selwood's hand............

 

[FR0GGY]

So knight head butted Selwoods finger nails did he?

Do you know what time of the game?

Do you know what time of the game?

It was when Knight remonstrated with Selwood and they gave Selwood a free kick. Joke.

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Has prior

 

[Crowked]

After he got away with dropping an elbow into the back of Sam Mitchells head from behind and on the ground, I think he's pretty much untouchable. Pretty close to the most cowardly thing I've seen a footballer do.

Low impact. Careless.

I didn't see the original incident, but there is no doubt Knight was livid with what had just happened, I had no doubt that he either had something said to him or had something done to him that was pretty average at best. If it was an eye gouge, or an attempt, I hope that it is followed up on and Selwood is suitably punished. It is hard to think of a lower act.

Free kick, Geelong...

 

[dracochapel]

My favourite bit of the game was "Free kick. Adelaide" and Selwood looking confused and having to give the ball back.

One of the few touches Selwood got all night.

One of the few touches Selwood got all night.

He got two touches 1 for each eye

 

[Squiba]

We all know the media wank fest over Dangerflog and Duckwood will try their hardest to cover up the "oh so brave" deep sea diving expidition and the "oh so courageous" eye gouging.

* the AFL media.

 

[Deaneus!]

Watching the replay - which quarter is it? or will it be obvious?

Watching the replay - which quarter is it? or will it be obvious?

Midway through 3rd quarter, Knight retaliates and gives a free away to Selwood for pushing him in the chest while on the ground - that's a rule now as of tonight

This was my thought, that Selwood said something. Having seen the gouge I hope it is looked at.

You don't * around with peoples eyes.

Should get weeks

 

[Punchy Bassett]

No one more deserving of an elbow to the head and a broken jaw than J Selwood

 

[Go the Guts]

Was about 3 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter. Selwood's just a dog.

 

[Murray2503]

Weak campaigner. Has nothing on Hodge. Just a free kick milking piece of filth.

 

[Mike Smyth]

Horrible footballer and human being. He doesn't play within the spirit of the game.

Feel free to send this to them....

Was there also a behind play elbow to the head to Douglas from selwood that Knight reacted heavily to and gave a free kick. What I saw if that looked worse given that footage above could easily be passed as "inconclusive"
