If he gets three matches then that's his season.
Two game ban and if we get to the GF he may not be selected.

Think about it the other way. If Ashton Sims did that to George Williams we'd want him banned. It was reckless and dangerous.

I want physicality and aggression in our sport but leaving the elbow in was a cheap shot.

Nothing more than an ill timed non malicious tackle made to look worse by SKYs love of the dramatic slow motion shot

I think 2 games is fair!

Assuming O'Loughlin comes back and shows form I see no reason to pick Flower even if he gets a 2 game ban and we reach the GF. He has shown himself to be too much of a liability.

Why are we hanging our own player here when other teams fans and the press are doing it for us?

He was sent off, so surely that should count when he appears before the panel?
I think it was 'reckless' and warrants a 2 match ban but not 3.

You think so?
Special dispensation for the grade and a 4 match ban will be order of the day! :wink:
