If Taranto and him did the same thing and there was a brick wall there instead of Kosi, it would've been the brick walls fault too.
If what happened with Taranto didn't happen, then he doesn't do his knee. You know how i know this? Because he's done the same things 100's of times already in marking contests, rucking contests, midfield stoppage contests.
He was off balance because of the Taranto contact.
So far, that makes myself, Paul, the commentators agreeing with that side
and
You....and maybe LP blaming it on the ruck contest.
Side by side, in a push and shove and that would ONLY happen in a ruck contest?
As an aside, you suggesting the ONLY reason he hurt his knee was because of the lateral flex caused by Kosi, i refer you to a story i've told many a time previous about a former QB Teddy Bridgewater, who hurt his knee to the point where he almost had to get his leg amputated while at training......and without any contact whatsoever. Doctors said it was akin to a car crash......yet no contact.
Sometimes $h!t just happens.
You can play the blame game, but that did not occur because he was used as a ruckman. That occured because he was playing a game of footy and was a complete accident.
Give it a break Kruddler; the foot clash with Taranto was a factor but it was the force applied by Koschitzke that did the damage. Watch how Kennedy’s knee buckles as Koschitzke engages with him before winning the hitout.
Could the injury have happened in another play phase? Of course it could, but it actually happened in a ruck contest and no amount of spin can change that.
