I dont accept protecting the head has damaged the game, changed it, but nothing like going from 20 to 22 & interchange.

It's inevitable that will be class actions against the AFL in regards to concussion and brain damage. It's not a matter of if but when, that will be the breaking point.I dont accept protecting the head has damaged the game, changed it, but nothing like going from 20 to 22 & interchange.

And neither Champ or I said it had damaged the game, but it sure has changed it. The Umps and MRo are having difficulty interpreting the ever changing rules/interpretations/ focus of the week and as a result blokes are getting rubbed out for accidents resulting football actions. It could be argued that some of the rules have actually encouraged players to put themselves at greater risk of a head knock to win a free kick.I dont accept protecting the head has damaged the game, changed it, but nothing like going from 20 to 22 & interchange.

Are you sure you quoted the correct post there buddy? You have none of it straight.So let me get this straight. The rules have both prevented guys from putting head over ball and also encouraged guys to put their head over ball.
Well I guess you have it all covered.
Umpires can’t umpire well due to congestion and speed of game. People forget they don’t have a 3D birds eye view of the field like you do in your armchair.
The afl are linier thinkers. Problem? Change a rule to fix it bit dont think through teh resulting consequences of the change. Several melbourne players now lead with their head to gain protection from the umps - one day they will pay a horrible price.So let me get this straight.

Hearing set for November ....from 6PR , radio broken only station available .
What a joke. 15 months later.

It's only two months from now. And he was always going to get at least a year, if he's going to know the outcome by November I think that's a pretty positive outcome at this point. Also means it won't be a distraction while the season is on.What a joke. 15 months later.
Justice delayed is justice denied.It's only two months from now. And he was always going to get at least a year, if he's going to know the outcome by November I think that's a pretty positive outcome at this point. Also means it won't be a distraction while the season is on.
So it’s after the grand final, ruling out any distractions to a premiership run, and before we have to lodge lists for the 2021 season?
From the club’s point of view the timing is about as good as we could have hoped for.
november huh just before lists are finalised.
by the sounds of things i reckon itll be 18- 24 months
My wild guess: I reckon he gets 2 years which will be back dated so he misses just 2021.By the sounds of what?
The hearing being in November, makes you think he will get 19 - 24 months? Am I missing something?
Some reckon he will get 4 which would be the end of his career.If Willie gets say 2 years thats from the original day yeah?
so backdated to around the Ess final?
So a 2 year ban he cpuld be ready to play in 2022?

My guess is 18 months. Missing all this year and half of next season.
would be ok with that tbh
Some reckon he will get 4 which would be the end of his career.
Hopefully for his sake he gets just 2.
