Tapscott hit on Savage

[Sylvia Saint]

Can somebody YouTube this? Happened about midway through the 3rd term.

The kid didn't have the best of games but the hit was an absolute beauty and isn't it refreshing to see someone in red and blue with a bit of mongrel.

 

[whatwhatsaywhat]

it also injured savage, and as such i'd be willing to wager he's cited for it.

Perfect bump.

 

[DonMare]

Great bump.
No high contact and took the wind out of Savage. Great to see.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Great bump. Pretty sure though I saw him pull out of a contested ball in the 4th though out on the Hawthorn flank - Hodge was involved.

only highlight of the game. wish we had ten Tapscotts.

 

[Syrus]

I stood up and applauded it, much to the discuss of the Hawthorn supporters around me.

 

[melbournemartin]

Did we also applaud him when he took us from having the ball inside 50 to an easy Hawthorn goal?

I'm all for aggression but not stupidity.

You can make an omlet without breaking a few eggs. Did some good hard stuff that created goals.

Nothing in it , Sav has injured a shoulder , thats all.....

 

[Captain Jack]

Delicious bump, I want to see it again.

Mans game, not every injury is the result of misconduct.

Well maybe in Demetriou, Anderson and Tinny's reign

Tapscott had a shocker today. Laying one good bump does not make for a valuable contribution. Giving away that free in the middle of the ground, when in all likelihood we would have got a free for in the back in the marking contest about 30m out from our goals, and then giving away a 50m penalty to rub it in, basically iced the game.

 

[Topkent]

stefan martin gave away the 50 although from what the commentators were sayin all he did was throw the ball back to the ump cuz he didnt no what was happening, the ump simply looked away and then paid 50 because martin' just threw the ball back at me'..
anyway, good bump.. also apparently wasnt involved in a great contest out on the wing with lewis because he's the brave one?

Will be interesting to see what happens, because after Tapscott dropped Osborne, you could hear the umpire say "well if he punched you he will get reported but you cant just dump someone". Might've been a fair reason for him dropping the player.

Exactly. Osbourne is a mongrel and jabbed Tappy in the jaw just prior, classic case of the umpire not seeing the instigation but penalising the retaliation.

 

[Roughies Boys]

Nah I think the Lewis run through Petterd was all class.

Lol you got the win and now you want to claim the false bravado acts.

Let us dees supporters have something!!!

 

[Crock]

Not saying we wouldn't have won anyway, but the Tapscott/Osborne incident changed the course of the game!

Think you guys have got some really good kids coming through.
Hope you can keep them all together

I would not be too hard on him, hopefully some of his tougness can rub off on some of your other players. Pretty bruise free footy other than Tapps. That sort of player always gives a few frees away, we used to have Richie Vandenberg. He set the mood of our club and led from the front with toughness in his last few years. Set that "unsociable" example for some of the younger guys to live up to. you have some good players coming through in the next few years I think. Hope you can hold them for your sake.

that hurts more than anything else, i tend to agree sadly... too many guys who dont love the heat of the battle and our captain is the main leader of that, hell throw in davey and theres half our leadership group of softies

I dont think we're soft at all. Youth might not be helping, but other than Davey who is a legitimate quality outside mid, I cant think of any senior blokes who are soft for us. Just the kids.
