I think that Geelong player (Bruns?) took legal action against Leigh Matthews for the off the ball head high hit in around 1985. IIRC?

correct burns did charge leathal leigh with assult, it was in a match on June the 15th 1985

West Coast also look like regaining Waters and Chick, these two will add some grunt and toughness to the eagles line up

On the Pies, Fraser is in danger of missing the final two rounds because of a back injury

On the Lions, as reported Charman will miss, which is a huge blow, the lions will also miss Hooper's (suspension) and Scott Harding's (injured) leg speed, while Jason Roe has accepted a one match suspension

REB

If the Roo does make it back for round 22, it will take a big effort from the Pies to get over the crows, the TD holds no fears for Adel
