Grocke for striking
Grocke is basically a victim for his hard at it approach - what did he actually do? I know the play stopped for a minute while the other players stood there waiting for the next act of play, and he was being reported. No reaction from the crowd, nothing from the players, why is this bad enough to go to the tribunal for?
Will be very interesting now to view the Magarey Medal votes on this match, to see if there is any credence to the theory that reported players don't get votes. Cicolella and Grocke would almost certainly fill the votes with Chris Knights, I would think.
Reported players are not supposed to get votes. If they do get votes the umpires have gone against their own instructions.
