I don’t understand how that was 3 weeks but the Dangerfield tackle was 1 week (then removed).

Just part of the continual production line that spits out “AFL CEO’s”
Different face mask but just the same as his predecessors.

It goes well past Auskick. Kids are not allowed any tackling in U8 & U9 & then stand up tackles only for U10. Plenty of kids have worked out already that as soon as you are tackled you drop to the ground & get a free kick.

Did that change recently? I coached U10 in NFL 2022 and they could tackle
Maybe the AFL needs to allow lifting in the tackle again so the tackler can stop the ball carrier going to ground.
I like this one

Have only just watched the two tackles. We genuinely need an intervention to save the game from Dillon, Kane and Christian.

Only stand up tackling.
NRL on now. Ive seen a spear tackle, and a three on one tackle where the players arms were pinned. The third guy grabbed his head and pushed/guided it into the ground for a blood nose.
Fark off Dillon and your law suit fears.
The NRL dont give a fark.

I’ve said it before, but there just has to be another way the AFL can protect itself from future concussion-related litigation (if that is indeed the issue). Many other sports with arguably and demonstrably greater risks do it.
Who would’ve thought we’d play international rules and decide that Gaelic Football was the better of the two sports.
There is a prime opportunity here for a “super league” style alternative Australian Rules competition.
Elon Musk is a genius. He’s managed to completely screw the usability of twitter. Well played.
What I’m trying to say is that all links to x seem to hang for a ridiculous amount of time
There are a couple of issues
-
I think Bedford’s starting position was a little further back so he arrived with more of a diving lunge, and didn’t have much of a chance to get his lower body in a position to swivel forward
-
he doesn’t have the body mass of a Cripps to help gain control of the tackle.

Yeah I see where your coming from though I think even in a full dive you should be able to tuck your knees in if you get a hold of them high enough. If you get them around the waist right on the edge of your dive i can see how you’d be hard pressed to execute this technique
Charlie Cameron suspension overturned
