It definitely wasn't worth 50m.... it should've been a down the field free as he was hit after he had disposed of the ball.

Had another look and you are correct

It's an interesting one because they usually use whether the contact affected the kick as a gauge as to whether it should be downfield, and the contact didn't impact the kick in any real way.

I'd not thought about it in that way before. Don't mind it, but it's also a bit tricky for umpires to judge whether the kick was impacted don't you think?

Watching the replay on this, the umpire blew the whistle as soon as Ed kicked the ball and was polaxed. However, a late hit and pretty sure to the head, should have given Ed a 50 metre penalty down field. At the time, I thought it should have been paid for down field, but now I think it was Ed's free plus the 50m

It definitely wasn't worth 50m.... it should've been a down the field free as he was hit after he had disposed of the ball.

^Please excuse the Kayo play icon overlay/darkness. This shows that Stanley arrived and made contact before the ball left the boot, but the contact was high. So a free kick in place is (to the letter of the law) correct. However the advantage was clearly ours and so the free kick did more harm than good.

So I obviously didn’t see enough for 3 of each but I wanna give one banker to Bailey Smith for throwing a headbutt, which fits the cool and hot guy badboy gimmick perfectly, and another one to Tuohy for no selling it and shaking his hand after the game. What a guy.

Tuohy all class. Yes Bailey Smith was an anchor, no butts about it.
Message to Smith (and Buddy):

"When someone tries to trigger you by insulting you or by doing or saying something that irritates you,
take a deep breath and switch off your ego.

Remember that if you are easily offended, you are easily manipulated.

Righty or wrongly the perception is he plays for free kicks and as a result he won’t get any benefits of the doubt.

Brad Johdson used to drive me nuts doing the same.
Why?

Thanks for posting. I didn't over-analyse it and you're right, correct decision paid if contact occurred during the act of kicking.

Using the disruption to the kick isn't a bad way to add a bit of context, but if the umpire doubts it was late then shouldn't pay the infringement.

The problem with this is that the tackler has free rein to infringe the opponent to stop momentum.
It was a blatant free and the infringer gets the ball back to where his team were, but with time to set up the defence.

We need these to be a minimum of 50 to prevent the PROFESSIONAL free.

To be honest even though I see it in writing I'm not convinced some proxy hasn't hacked your account.
