Re: Round 12: Carlton vs. Port Adelaide - Post match celebrations - Blue Moon - 06-22-2015
Gibbs will probably get suspended, Gray was carted off which was unfortunate and we should not like seeing that, so 1 week is likely with an early plea and good record. However for a longer term team perspective it was a message of physicality that hasn't been shown by Carlton for a long time. For too long we have been punching bags yet on the weekend our tackling was aggressive like it should be. So I think a suspension for Bryce is a cheap price to pay for a strong message. Let's just hope this sort of physicality continues into the future.

A lot of folk were laying into him on twitter after that tweet. One even showed you tube footage of him laying a bad tackle on Murph.
Think he apologised later, probably all the crap he copped had something to do with it

Tough and hard, but fair.

Gibbs suspended for 3 matches, reduced to 2 with an early plea:

Reckon we might appeal this.

Sam McClure tweeted straight back to him telling him it was actually his 711th tackle and that he averages 4 a game throughout his career.
Gibbs career tackling stats are actually very similar to Cassissi's.

3 weeks for laying a tackle, is this netball?

Only the fact that the most aggressive tackle he ever delivered he gets suspended for.... and it will make him think twice next time.

He should just have elbowed him in the jaw like Hodge did. Would have got the same result.
Bullshite decision.
