SA Footy

Very nasty incident in the C grade Flaggies v H. Gold game yesterday. Flaggies boy chased the ball over the boundary line. H. Gold’s best player (IMO) and very well known in the SFL, went after him and gave him a massive shuff into the concrete. The pusher got a red card and therefore a report, but the victim has severe lacerations to the head with deep ashaplt intrusions plus a broken knee cap in three places. I sincerely trust the tribunal will deal with the offender appropriately. 6 - 8 should be minimum, but if he has a record, it should be retirement!

How many games did he get?

I'm told, 3, which will keep him out of the finals and finish his year. I am also told he has a bit of a record. Either way the penalty appears (IMO) to be lenient for such a callous incident.

It's a wonder why SAAFL won't let Smackham into their competition. That said, it's probably good for Smackham that they weren't let in. I doubt they would last two seasons before they were kicked out of the league Salisbury West style. IMO SFL could have taken a much harder line with the club from doctors road.

Interesting that you don’t even mention what happened on the Field. Just attack the people who call out thuggery

Talking to Hackham supporters at the C grade prelim last Sunday and the club has definitely applied to join the SAAFL next year. They like what they see with Marion & OSB / Lons. However whether they will be accepted or not is a big query! Apparently the recent C grade indiscretion (which this thread was started on) is a very big stumbling block for them. Would be ironic that a callous thug cost them the opportunity to improve.

Mail is Smackham need to lose the capital S before they can join the AdFL. Could they do a year without a suspension? Unlikely IMO
