I thought so, that wasn't a legitimate attempt to spoil from my view - haven't seen the replay yet. Looked like he just clattered into him and effectively tackled him rather than spoiling with a fist. Not sure why Carlton ended up with the ball?

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Toby McLean
He was great last night, it's disappointing he's injured, because he has improved game after game and you could sense he was really starting to believe he belonged at the level. Hopefully there is some good news and he gets through his rehab OK, as well as maintain his confidence to continue to attack the contest.

Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Toby McLean
I'm as upset as anyone that McLean looks like being out for an extended period, but Buckley's action reportable? Turn it up.

It isn't reportable. But it's unnecessary and vindictive. Causing long term pain and rehabilitation to another player.

I would fully expect a Dogs player to make the opposition earn it, just as McLean was made to earn that mark. Was unfortunate that he landed on his shoulder but IMO Buckley did absolutely nothing wrong at all.

I'm keen to see a replay, agree with your sentiment but at the time I had a strong reaction to it as it appeared to be a shit effort on Buckley's behalf. Could have been just RW&B lenses in my glasses though. I still haven't figured out how Carlton ended up with the ball? Did it go out on the full?

Not reportable, but it should have been fifty imo.

To me near ground level, it looked like he purposely 'dropped a frontal forearm' into McLean using his body weight. Much like a WWE move, but for real.

Not just for the next month. Once a shoulder pops it can pop out again anytime. A real shame for the kid. He will either be in great pain or in lala land from the pain relief right now.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

I couldn't work out how they got the ball either?

Thought the same.
Pretty average, but I guess in the current tribunal climate Toby will get a fine for diving

Whoever took the kick for McLean, kicked it on the full.
More of an In Bruges guy?

Love watching Toby playing and hoping the injury is not as serious as Bevo thinks it is

Thank you. It had me baffled, I must have missed the kick when yelling obscenities furiously at the umpires.
