Tough call on Walker. This incidental contact rule can be confusing at times. He made contact with the ball first, his only other option was to pull out. Strictly applied two players going for a mark, who make incidental head contact and knock each other out, should both be liable for suspension.
Walker got let off on the Westhoff one, got done for the stupid flinging of Monfries into the fence. Reckless, dangerous and just plane imbecilic.
sorry, I hadn't realized that it was for the fence slam...iin that case he's lucky to only get 1 game suspension.
