Re: AFL Round 14, 2018
Cameron is a particular piece of scum with form. Isn't he the one that took out JJ one year?
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

Yeah, apparently fairly.
Healy is already saying it was reckless. It wasn't, it was intentional contact with an elbow and just too perfect a connection for it not to have been what he wanted to do. Lined him up from a mile away.
Commentators on Fox are saying 4 weeks, that's not enough. Should be much more than that.

Re: AFL Round 14, 2018
Looked just like Tony Lockett on Peter Caven at the SCG - Plugger got 8 weeks - seems about right for the hit on Harris Andrews too.
Footscray member since 1980.

Apparently will go straight to tribunal, where 3-6 will be the penalty.

Cameron is a dog, but I didn't have a problem with the hit on JJ.

I still don't.

Andrews was spark out before he hit the ground. Should get 8, will get 4.

It's ridiculous how good Charlie Curnow already is and how much better he will become.

Re: AFL Round 14, 2018
Agree with reckless for Cameron. It all happened so quickly with both players turning their bodies he couldn't have meant it, but a flying forearm was the definition of reckless
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

So reckless, high impact, head high and has resulted in a serious injury. Hard to see how he gets less than 4 weeks but this is the AFL and there are rules for some.

Re: AFL Round 14, 2018
Guy with priors takes out a player courageously going back with the flight of the ball with his most dangerous part of his body in an unnatural position that then renders Andrews out for the rest if the game and possibly facing concussion issues is reckless?
Thats a joke guys. It has to be intentional.
I should leave it alone but you're not right

Agree with your description, "that then renders Andrews out" not "deliberately knocking Andrews out"
That's reckless to me. Doesn't mean he shouldn't be suspended. 4-6 weeks IMO
Quote from the MRP thread below - that shows the issue with grading it as intentional, it wasn't a cold blooded king hit behind the play

For context, that was the same grading given to Barry Hall's punch on Brent Staker.
