Very rare that they would take that stance, so they must've got word very early on that it was very serious. Given it was essentially an in play footballing incident.
FWIW, i rewound it a few times, was he awarded the mark for that because he took it.
Given the North bloke went the bump on him, he is liable for an accidental head clash and the resulting injury?
"If you want to bump, you have to suffer the consequences if a player gets injured"
Lets see if they've softened that stance.
Couldn't understand why the player wasn't cited by the umpire immediately as it's very clear that the North Melbourne player has a duty of care in that contest. Will be a farce if he isn't booked and suspended.
