In saying that I think those photos are more damming.
He doesn't leave the ground but what he does do is bump a player who 'already' has possession rather than trying to tackle. The AFL don't like when players bump instead of tackling.

McKay did nothing wrong, it was a footy collision.
Injuries happen, always have, always will!

If they consider you had an alternative / option, yes.

There will always be an alternative but not one the coach or footy fans will want to see.
Surely we don’t want players pulling out of contests?

Hunter Clark had an alternative also, how far do you take it?

I agree, I'm trying to understand what the AFL want like the rest of us.

That is the thing though, the AFL does not want players to 'crack in hard"
that is why Mackay will be suspended even though they have to make up some bs to punish him.

Have a look at the score when it happened. Up until then the Crows were pathetic, but Mackay turned that game. The Crows coaching staff will never come out and admit it, but behind closed doors they would be praising him for what he did. I bet it gets him votes in their B&F.
