Re: AFL Rd 15 2024 Post-Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong Reply #75 – June 23, 2024, 10:41:49 am Danger drilled Walsh's head into the turf, that is not being disputed. Go back and look at a couple of the other times Walsh was tackled and you will see what I am referring to. Quote Selected
Re: AFL Rd 15 2024 Post-Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong Reply #76 – June 23, 2024, 10:59:07 am Danger field had both arms and actually was holding Walsh's left wrist. He dropped his own body weight which left Walsh defenceless. You would have to be a flat earther to believe Walsh slammed his head on purpose. Quote Selected 2 Likes

Go back and look at a couple of the other times Walsh was tackled and you will see what I am referring to.The same forces apply whether it’s a tackle or a heavy landing after a marking attempt. Your head is basically the end of a pendulum and stopping the motion of the pendulum causes the head to accelerate.Saying that a player is deliberately face slamming is a bit like saying that players can bend their fingers back to give the impression of a touched ball.

Re: AFL Rd 15 2024 Post-Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong Reply #79 – June 23, 2024, 12:28:49 pm Walsh winces at the approaching surface, and his neck muscles are taught like he's trying to keep his head off the deck.But that's not a fact BT or the other media Dangerflog apologists want discussed, because it fails to fit their agenda to get Dangerflog off the charges.If someone like Fogarty tackled Dangerflog like that, the same crew would have put him to the media sword!

It's been highlighted on the tv as well.That being said, that Walsh incident was not one of them. Not even close. Quote Selected

As if a player is going to smack his own head into the ground with a full paced tackle. Deliberate attempt at concussion.....haha. Seriously! Quote Selected 4 Likes

Banished? Don't think so. He was a very important cog late last year. We can tell what Carlton think of him. They put him straight in last time after such a long break. Add he and Cerra in, for Fantasia and Durdin, and that tops us off. We should play Martin a game or two in the twos first though this time. That'll be some forward line. Motlop may not come in with the way Owies is going. Quote Selected

Agree Prof...he goes ok first up from a spell usually but I cant see why we would try and fix a team that doesnt need fixing.He isnt an automatic anymore given the form of E Hollands and Owies and I think he should settle for being a injury replacement and backup player until needed or he plays a few ressies games and dominates to force his way in.Be Cerra and Cottrell back in when fully fit for Carroll and Durdin if I was making the selections.
