Can you imagine the outcry if Dangerfield got suspended for that tackle if Kreuzer wasn't concussed?
You can't do away with outcomes. They are linked to the force of the impact

Rubbish. You're suggesting concussion symptoms in every person would be the same if each person was subjected to the same contact?

How else do you grade impact other than the medical reports like they currently do?

He probably didn't poll a vote the last two weeks and Dusty most likely 2 x BOG's.
It is conceivable that Danger can lose the Brownlow on merit, not contrived AFL...

No they’re not, some peoples bodies are different to others. Danger could have laid that exact same tackle on another Carlton player and they could have got straight up. Its relative to the person, just because the outcomes are different for different people doesn’t make it dangerous. If you’ve played any football before you know when you tackle you want to pin the arms so the player cant release the ball. We are now moving towards having to teach young players not to tackle like that incase they hurt the other player.

Positivity from a Cat's supporter going into a game is indeed refreshing!

Well the tin foil hats in the bin, I was absolutely convinced that the AFL would have rung Geelong & told them that they were giving him 2 down to 1 to silence the plebs, tell them to appeal & he'd get off. Astounded.
