Re: Round 12: Carlton vs. Port Adelaide - Post match celebrations

The way they are trained to tackle - pin arms and rotate to side - is to prevent them getting the ball away or giving away a free for in the back... so the side roll is a consequence of the rules.  The smaller players tend to tackle more like this from what I have seen.

I have no dramas Gibbs getting a penalty... as long as everybody else who performs a similar slinging action in a tackle is penalised similarly.  And I mean everybody... even blokes from Sydney and the whorks.
