I appreciate it's a throwaway line, but I reckon it's a bit rich calling him an idiot.
To stay focused on the ball as a raging bull is heading straight at you was bloody fantastic imo.
Let's be grateful the bloke did his job and backed his judgment in, because if he said he thought it was a point or he didn't see it because he was protecting himself. ... we possibly don't win the game!
Wasn’t the contact that done it.
Looks like the way he feel to the ground that stuffed his shoulder
What happens when in his effort to "stay focussed" it results in a player suffering a long term injury?
Yes you've got to applaud his efforts to make sure he's in the best position to judge if it's a goal or not but last week when he actually put himself in the middle of a pack going the spoil?
Needs to develop the nouse to get out of the way.
No sensible person would complain if he'd have got out of the way of Dusty last night and been unable to say if it was a goal or not. It had to go upstairs anyway.

It was a luv tap with an open hand. Didn’t even constitute a strike. With Shocking in charge though it’s almost certain
Shouldn't - especially when Hogan proved to be a champion stager for that free kick (in Q3 perhaps) when he totally manufactured a pulling down on his arms by Bachar.
There was essentially no contact at all.
I'd be using the argument that once a stager always a stager and that he laid it on thick for the Nank one too.
What.... hide behind the goal post.... my point is that he did his job and had he not it's 99% gonna be called a behind if it goes upstairs. Obviously we see it differently.
He collected Whitfield a bit late in the last few minutes too. Was a bit worried as it looked like he bumped him from behind to the head, but may have been to the back. Whitfield carried on so hopefully nothing to see here.
Yeah that one against Bash was ridiculous, there was no contact whatsoever, he dropped the mark very clearly.
Of course they did.... throw Lynch into the mix too.... (surprisingly not much angst coming his way....... yet!)
Nanks and Lynch asked to top up AFL's coffers this week but Green got away with his act on Grimes. Also surprised the MRP didn't nail Dusty for dropping the goal ump such is their need to punish the Tigers
Standard fines for everyday incidents that nobody else really gets cited for yet again.
You know what *smile* me a lot. When some punk forward takes a whack at a defender, defender retaliates, forward falls to ground and its a free. Happened to us against Melbourne, happened again against GWS. I mentioned in the gameday thread that Hogan got Broad with a whack around the face, Broad reacts and its a free in front of goal. How about if these maggots are watching the players off the ball (as they must be to pay the retaliation) then pay the initial one.
Hogan fined for the whack on Broad, but I bet he's pretty happy with the goal that he got from it.
