but... you can't just take staker out of the picture. if the umpires were doing their job properly there should've been a free kick. its a known fact that power forwards or forwards in general get a raw deal from the umpires. a lot of the time its because they act to much but on some occasions, if the same thing happened in the midfield the whistle would be in the mouth before you could blink.... or throw a punch for that matter.

the issue here has been and gone. he threw a punch. he got suspended for 7 weeks. end of story.

it wasn't a 'king hit'. it wasn't 'a punch that could kill'. and there was 2 people involved.
