Did they have any plan to protect him because that was insane!

I reckon there were a few hairy moments.

Swans look scary good.

They didn't have time, imagine if he missed the kick he'd have still been swamped.

Amazing. Imagine if Naughton ever got there. Thered be about 5 false starts.

Re: AFL Game Day R2 2022

i really thought that was so dangerous

There was certainly 0 control which is not something anyone wants.
Pandemic also a little crazy. But, they got some video.

They just needed to get a ring of security around him with the players initially and then the security or police but it was too quick!

Haha. It was not something you see everyday that's for sure.
Very unique to AFL.

I loved it, but at the same time it was dicey AF and poorly thought through from a security perspective.

Chris Scott looked livid and I don’t blame him. Really it was quite farcical how it could go on for 30 mins ?
How buddy got out of that is beyond me.
Before buddy lined up, there should’ve been 6 of the biggest security guards at the ground within 5 metres of him, so that they could form a barrier around him before all the sheep stormed the ground.

Play on?

Re: AFL Game Day R2 2022

Clearly it was planned that the crowd be allowed on without being controlled.
I did not see a single player push or be pushed aggressively.
Buddy rode every pat on the head and had no fear or aggression in his eyes at anytime.

Such a party pooper Chef. Surely you have red and white macaroons today! xD

Orchestrated 50 metres if smothered it's the only way.

Zac Touhey had a fair clash with a fan all innocent but apparently a fair whack.
He lost his keys and phone and Zac followed him to give them back!
He thought he was going to deck him.
