I've get less problems with Danger missing a week, Kruezers head did hit the deck. I wasn't as happy with Hawkins going for a jumper punch because it was rule of the week.

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between Dangerfields perfectly legal tackle and say Jeremy Howe going for a hanger and kneeing someone in the head and concussing him? are we going to start rubbing players out for that type of thing?

The most dangerous act on the weekend was Franklins swinging arm on Hodge. only reason he doesn't get suspeneded is there was no damage to Hodge. Ive asked this question before but what has happened to being suspended for attempting to strike? I reckon the last bloke was Alistair Lynch.

And before that the last bloke who got pinged for attempting was Super Carey!

The wheel has come full circle. The irony is that the dangerous tackle law was introduced because of a sling tackle on Dangerfield :)

Possibly a stupid question but, With Danger now being ineligible for the brownlow do you think it will effect the umpires votes in the coming weeks? Along the lines of 'he can't win it anyway so we'll give them to Duncan' for example.

Sounds far fetched but with these blokes I just don't know.

Nope because Duncan might get suspended as well. Hawk will go again even though two players were throwing jumper punches. Can't believe how stupid our senior players are.
