Imagine if that was Lynch doing it. The media would be demanding that he be rubbed out for 2021, just like poor Ivan will be.Should the actions of Hawkins be questioned here? He was pushed players into packs a number of times during the game. . In fact he has been doing it all season with little scrutiny from the umpires/AFL. Was only a matter of time before someone got hurt.
If it was Lynch they would show it.They keep showing the Soldo incident but don't have the courage to illustrate how Hawkins pushes Balta in the back which means he stumbles into Ivan.
Why is it sometimes the media go through footage with a fine tooth comb to uncover a travesty but when one is right under their nose they ignore it?

Dalhaus actually shoves Ivy from the opposite direction too. It's like they practice this shite down at Geelong.![]()
Innocuous knock?To me it looked like an innocuous knock after the Hawkins shove but shocked at the amount of damage occurred to Ivan. I just hope his powers of recovery are good and he will come back even better than before
The thing is that sort of thing happens in footy all the time and I doubt the shove was done to cause serious injury, just to disrupt the play. It was unfortunate Noah's knee was forced into Ivan's knee at exactly the wrong spot. The end result I agree is a disaster for Ivan and our team. As much as I would like to see Hawkins sanctioned, I doubt it will happenInnocuous knock?
The 105 kg balta was shoved full force who's knee then collided into the side of Soldo's knee which then buckled.
