Just wondering what other people who saw the collision think. I didn't really see the incident at the game, only saw the umpire (Matthew Nicholls?) on the ground. But after watching the replay I reckon someone might be in trouble. Shouldn't be Tucky...he was watching the ball/ruck contest and was clearly pushed into the umpire by McLean. All Tucky can be accused of is cutting it a bit fine by trying to run on that angle between McLean and the umpire. IMHO McLean could be in strife. He's stiff if he is (he was also looking at the ball and I would've thought he's allowed to push/fend Tucky off lightly in that situation), but it was pretty heavy contact and I'm not sure I can see the MRP just letting this one go. Any thoughts?

Tucky, Brock McLean and the umpire

Acker was in the SEN box doing the game and he claims that the AFL made a ruling about deliberately pushing players into the mouldy maggots because Simon Black used to do it to his taggers all the time.
The consenus was that Brocky might be in trouble. Not sure if it rates a fine or spending a lap or two in the pits.

Considering how long the Ump was down for, Brock might get a couple of weeks.
But then again, who knows, he might get flowers.

They might spin it off and say it was because of the taggers, but Brock will have to explain himself.

Not happy Geisch!!!!
If I could watch the game on bigpond without it stoppring every 5 seconds I might be able ot see the incident, but if I do watch the game on Bigpond I might be able to respond in about a week's time.
Joke and joke.
It was interesting to see the umpire flat on his face for what seemed like ages, I thought he was down for the count! Thought players might have started running over the top of him cause he started to blend into the grass and dirt.
