When I saw that live I felt he was trying to impede him by tripping or knocking him off balance and accidently got him in the nether regions so for me that's a fine.
I didn't notice either of these during the game. I've seen the replay of the Rich incident but not Eagles. Kicking Bont - should be a lifetime ban!

Hate seeing players behave like that and never really get a square up. The balance has ripped to far in favour of this chippy, cowardly stuff. when you have players get rubbed out for poor outcomes resulting from acts that are legal, a la Crozier, then this stuff should be punished hard.
Just wondering what sort of look for young aspiring footballers and their parents is if you let a punch in the guts get unpunished ?
Not good enough AFL
Commentary around it is totally pathetic as well
The Lynch punch was pathetic, but seeing Collins pacing around the rooms and sitting with his eyes closed was objectively hilarious. Poor guy.
Its a shit feeling when you don't get to square things up. For his own mental health, he should have absolutely unleashed on him. Sometimes people need to have their decisional balance reset, and a punch in the face is a good way to do it.

I would love to see someone try that defence at the tribunal - Sir you see I had to punch him in the face for the sake of my own mental health.
