I reckon Kosi would get 2-3 weeks for this one…

How will the AFL treat their biggest finals draw card?

I reckon its quite simple. High contact, low impact and negligent. What ever points that is.

Will get a week,not much in it,but that's what they want...

Honestly don't think it makes too much difference to the Hawks chances,think they play just as well without him.

Negligent?

Didn't he choose to bump well after the ball was kicked??

Was it not an intentional act?

Not that I care, hope he gets two weeks though, he has a history of soft acts like that....

Thought i was on ignore BM? Anyway thats how i see it. You can go with intentional. I doubt he wanted to delibrately bump him in the head so thats why I said negligent.

What choice did he have should be the first point. Hardly Buddy's fault the bloke is shorter than him.

Pretty sure he didn't need to make any contact at all… But if you choose to come in for a bump, it is your responsibility to not make contact with your opponents head, if you are too clumsy (or tall) to make a legal bump then don't do it.

Will end up a one weeker due to high contact but was low impact. I reckon it's reckless not negligent due to the slight intent, definitely not intentional classification. Luckily he has no priors or carryover points. Go Hawks, kill those Swines!

Makceski heading to hospital for scans to check for fractures... serves him right for being short I guess.

Part of football soft bump that warrants nothing more than a free at best.

Feel more sorry for Silvagni who I think will miss because he punched Rooeys face and will miss out on taking Mc Pharlin's spot. No finals for NOS.
