point being that a punch in the spoiling action to the back of the head would easily have caused more grief than Harry's tickle on sheezel.

Maybe I should have said Larynx rather than Trachea? Dom Sheed was sent to hospital after getting an elbow to the larynx at training and Simpson said he sounded like Darth Vader: West Coast Eagles coach Adam Simpson says Dom Sheed sounded like ‘Darth Vadar’ after throat whack, Perth Now.

Ed Curnow copped an injury from Dusty a few years ago.

Point being is I agree with you 1000% but those you mentioned didn't get cited and its not a conspiracy.

I'm just filthy that in the Gather round (which don't forget is a 23rd game for everyone this season) we cop a rampant Adelaide on their own patch in front of 50,000 screaming croweaters.

Hawthorn or West Coast down at Norwood would have been far more amenable.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

WTF?  :o
2024... Moir of the same to come

It has never been a serious charge. The only guy who was ever reamed over it was Greg Williams who was suspended for 9 weeks by the fill-in when Jack Gaffney was on holidays. Rather than admit the work experience guy messed up, the AFL fought tooth and nail to avoid admitting the error. And then there was Toby who actually did target the umpire which Diesel never did.

Didn't Ed Curnow get pinged for some bul$&@t umpire contact charge a few years ago???

Yep:  Ed Curnow banned over AFL umpire contact but brother Charlie escapes, The Guardian.

I feel like I’m in one of those sci-fi shows where I’ve woken up on another planet Earth in the Multiverse and things aren’t quite the same. Did that really happen only 5 years ago and I have no recollection of it? Did a guy named Jed Lamb really play for Carlton? I might just go for a lie down.

The young Crow should only get a fine, no malicious intent - match suspensions are overkill for that.

Yea Jed Lamb, have seen him at a few Carlton games as a spectator over the past year or so ??
