I reckon Walker (& the umpire for that matter) got a bit caught up in the moment.
It was at a crucial stage, near goal, the crowd was hyped & excitement levels were high, the Richmond bloke was a bit cheeky trying break tackles and Taylor just wanted to put him on his arse.
Unfortunately he got it a bit wrong and dumped the Richmond bloke the wrong way up.
You just cant do that anymore.

The umpire seemed to be a bit swept up in the moment too. He payed HTB (which it was .... apart from the dangerous dump at the end of it) and then had to try & stop a fight when the Richmond bloke fired up.

Me & my son agreed on the spot that it would go to the tribunal.

After all the controversy, IMO I reckon the right things happened.
Free kick, goal, Walker got games. Because of his record he got 3 instead of 2. Seems about right.

After seeing McKernan dominate against the bays on Sunday, I reckon he or Jenkins could slot straight in and get some crucial game time before finals.


Incorrect. Walker missed the shot on goal.

If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

McKernan is hopeless, Jenkins or Lynch for me


He's not that bad.
But you might be onto something with Lynch. Pretty mobile & will otherwise be doing **** for 2 weeks as Glenelg have a double bye.
Jenkins is going to be great with more games.
Yeah, Naah,..... Bollocks!

I would play both Jenkins and Lynch. If they only play one of them, when Tippet goes into the ruck the forward line will be a little light on
