It was tragic. Channel Nine hung him out to dry. Fev should have sued whoever was producing the television show that night. I know that might not make any sense to you though.
One of the worst has to be Steven Baker on Steve Johnson, targeting Johnsons already injured hand and breaking it resulting in one of the largest suspensions ever and rightfully earned
@@kirboturbo6932 did you just compare the GOAT to the guy that played Oswald Cobblepot in Batman Returns? Sorry mate, I didn't realise you were a special needs person.
@@marcuslightbody6933 He went to punch him in the chest and Brayshaw ducked and copped it in the chin instead. Go back and look at the video a split second before Gaff hit him. If Brayshaw had stood up straight he would have got it in the chest.
What a coincidence Hall got 7 weeks for that hit on Staker. Hall injured his wrist in that game and doctors said he would be sidelined for 7 weeks. Hall, a registered boxer, and repeat offender on the field was always given preferential treatment by the tribunal.
I thought he should have been given a whole season off... Miles off the ball, brain fade, king hit, could have dealt permanent damage, never learnt his lesson
Im no Cows fan nor a fan of Roo for that matter (Cant stand the droning knobrider) but that hit was legit in it's day and wasn't in the slightest "unsavoury" Carn the pear
A Little surprised that between the lot of them that no one could remember that it was Michael Rischitelli getting the treatment pressure point treatment from Judd.
How's Lloyd going on about how shocking it was seeing Hall do what he did in 2008 (it was horrific) while the following year he cleans up Brad Sewell which would then be his last game. Dog act.
The difference is that bump on Sewell was the only thing close to a cheap shot Lloyd ever gave out in his career. And he did it because he was desperate for Essendon to win.
@@TheChemistGaming technically no, a coward punch is one you don't see coming, often from behind, the Hall punch was in front, in view, and wouldn't have been as bad as it was if he hadn't been a trained boxer
@@michealriseley6261 A coward punch or sucker punch is a punch made without warning while the target is distracted and/or not expecting it. Infornt/behind is irrelevant. Hall surprised his opponent with a spinning left hook while he was watching the ball, coward punch KO and honestly surprised they let him play ever again. Yeah it'd be less bad if it wasn't from a train boxer but that totally irrelevant. Hall is a trained boxer.
Yep. I remembered watching this live on tv. Milburn clapped to the crowd and I thought, not a good look. He brought the game into disrepute and got suspended for a few weeks from memory.
Please do one that is the opposite of this, showing the more honourable acts, I remember David Hille from Essendon one year checked and stayed with an opposition player to make sure he was alright. A few good ones this year, Dane Rampe checking on Kamdyn McIntosh, Essendon players getting around Josh Bruce.
@chrisc3797 Wasn’t necessarily honourable but a good sportsmanship moment. Michael Hurley’s last game. He’d been out so long due to a severe hip infection which lead to hip replacement surgery. But had worked his ass off and managed to get back for 1 last game against Richmond at the end of 2022. Despite the bombers being completely beaten and unable to send him off with a win. They did manage to get him a shot at goal in the last 2 minutes where he’d kick his last AFL goal. And once all the Bombers boys had finished getting around him and celebrating. The Richmond players also went over and congratulated him, seeing the Richmond lads go and get around him like that was just a great moment.
Since it was modern era, you'd have thought that Stratton would have copped weeks for nudging, let alone touching Razor Ray after those pinches, but didn't get anything for contact with an umpire.
Oddly enough, cement head Craig Kelly went thru a pinching phase in the 90’s, the only full forward he didn’t pinch was Tony Lockett. No one messed with Lockett!
I remember my pop telling me a story, he didn’t remember the player but he said it was a Collingwood v essendon game in the 70’s the players were lining up and just before the bounce one of the bombers king hit a pies player and he was out cold, not a great story but makes me laugh how different the game was back then
Riewoldt didn’t deserve it with such an injury, but I saw him a few years later do exactly the same thing against a young GWS player at Manuka. He can’t cry foul by being so hypocritical.
I love Hodge as a Hawthorn supporter, but we can't finger point and defend him for this type of thing when he did probably the most dangerous thing he could possibly do to Wingard in that situation. He was lucky Chad walked away from that one.
Cant remember what granny but maybe 2014 luke hodge with broken ribs being tested out before the first bounce. As tough a player as there has ever been.
West Coast coached by M. Malthouse = cocaine, amphetamines, steroids, police protection, etc., etc Also, Brad Scott had every right to flatten B. Johnson
Chris Judd made sure Fevola had loads to drink. There is plenty of footage at nine showing Judd encouraging Fevola to keep drinking. Judd should have had his contract ripped up getting a known alcoholic. Judd and the liquor licence holder should have been fined many thousands of dollars for breaching the liquor licensing act. Which was pointed out by lawyers at the time. Being the AFL nothing was really done. Fevola was set up by Judd.
Remember him on TV next to that little girl with cancer and he starts sprouting his conspiracy theory that deodorants cause lymphoma LMFAO what a lunatic and how inappropriate
@@redtiger4352 ah righto. lloyd was fine as he said but it’s still not a great look. riewoldt seemed to be attempting to leave the ground, as he hurt the shoulder in the game and wasn’t a pre-existing injury. pretty dog to target the injuries if it’s clearly in pain though
@@robdouglas698 no he came back to ground when they body checked him. So now players cant body check each other? Body checking is within rules. Pinching or punching thats different
The was Matthews elbow on Barry Cable in the 1971 state game. Cable was in the process of bending down to pick up the ball. The slo mo showed Matthews eyes focused on Cable and his elbow pointing right at the cheek area. Cable propped to avoid contact and Matthews made sure the elbow hit the head. He had taken two steps past the ball when contact was made. How the "experts" judged Matthews was the player of the century is totally beyond me. That honour should of gone to Haydn Bunton Senior who won three Brownlow medals with Fitzroy and three Sandover medals when he captain-coached W.A. team Subiaco.
they couldn't even highlight Chris Lewis incident without harping on about his brilliant career for fear of being called 'racist'. you can literally bite people these days as long as you're bl.. k.
Probably because the reason Lewis was always mad is it is on the record that he was racially abused each week. Players literally went out to do it. More than likely the panel mention how good he is not to admit how horrific the abuse was that he copped. Viney himself admitted to abusing him. You are truly clueless
