on the rails wrote:Clinch cited by the SANFL Tribunal. No video of the alleged strike against the Central's player (one of the Gowans) nor was the alleged offence seen by any umpire so the report was made on the basis of Gowan's complaining to the umpire that Clinch hit him!
So referred straight to the Tribunal so I assume Gowan's will have to give evidence that it was Clinch who allegedly hit him? So it will be the word of one player against another being the only evidence.
The irony of a Gowan's running to the umpire and dobbing!
The irony of you posting the above after posting the below previously:" Re: Former Glenelg Forward Justin McConnell King Hit
We wonder why parents want their kids to play other sports when $hit like this happens.
The last game of football I played which was in a country league and my first for the year in the A grade lasted the first minute and half of the game - I was king hit from behind and spent 2 days in hospital with severe concussion. The main reason for the hit I was told later was becuase of my occupation. I extracted my revenge several months later!"
