lol
are these people for real? obviously trolling.
what a *smile* rag media site
it wasn't just one arm, he got him high with both arms.
slams him into the turf?
please....
As one eyed as they come but that wasn't a high tackle on Martin at all Willo. That screen grab doesn't tell the story. Was just a good tackle by Robinson. Only stands out because Dusty is so rarely tackled.
If Robinson went high it only very briefly. The thing is, if it's a Richmond player tackling he gets penalised.
Yep, but I think we'd just like the Umps to adjudicate the laws of the game as they apply fairly to us.
It was an atrocious high tackle. While numerous other ones on our players were ignored also.
They appeared to miss quite a lot of frees to both sides and still managed to pay an above-average 44. Maybe they should umpire the game instead of to a quota.
But more one way than the other.
not if you factor in all the high fends our Dusty gets away with. And good on him, but let's stop pretending that doesn't happen.
Greatly overstated. Mostly he just pushes the point of the shoulder.
We're getting Kentucky fried by those *smile* and no amount of random anecdotes makes it better.
He makes high contact to Dusty's face/head, above the shoulders with both hands. He must because he has actually leapt above him then drops down on him with his arms. Could have easily been awarded high. Was there some talk of a martial arts tactic? Just happened to land on him with both knees too; not in a hurry to get off. How unfortunate. How's your ribs, Dusty?
Dusty's foot trouble may also have affected his strength to push off too perhaps.
Should be great for the game to see more variations of this 'tackle' now allowed. Parents at junior footy where there are great size disparities are going to fall in love with this one.
And you say that with no bias? Absolutely clubbed?
You know Balta actually punches the ball? The contact with Daniher is after he hits the ball, is that not incidental contact in a marking contest? He didn't chop the arms he punched the ball.
I guess these blokes need to see their doctors about the point of their shoulders migrating to their upper necks
There's the odd one where his hand strays or slips. How many of those were paid as frees against?
Hartlett should do something about that loose neck skin. Makes him look like a lizard.
yeah that was a good one, I can see why the umpire was reluctant to give a free there given the artistry on display
Good point re Hartlett, maybe that's why he's dropped this week.
Now find all the images of Dusty fending off from "the point of the shoulder". Can't say I recall any.
Plenty of examples here.
