Im amazed and dissapointed Lynch was not reported for unduly rough play when he threw jason cloke arse over tit on the boundary line, if Lynch is not reported trial by video the game is a joke, Lynch knew exactly what he was doing and i shuddered when cloke seem to land on his neck, this could of been a very serious incident, young jason cloke could of been seriously hurt, if this incident escapes attention from the AFL it will be a further mockery on the game and the people who run it.
This was a very sad incident ,once upon a time i had great respect for Lynch and his ability to overcome that dibilitating illness he suffered, but after that cry baby exhibition he put on all day in last years grand final which eventually suckered a match winning goal and the intent to dangerously hurt cloke last night was to myself the actions of a very sad person.

I hope our club has a good look at the above incident because 'an inch here or an inch there' when cloke landed on his head could have rendered him a very serious lifetime injury.

Give it away Alistair Lynch your a joke!!!

I totally agree with you, joffa, I was disgusted with Lynch but I knew that no one would do anything about it cos the entire Lions team seems to be able to get away with bloody murder as far as the umps are concerned.
Bucks's penalty for holding the ball, for instance, would not have happened to Michael Voss. The AFL need to look into the way decisions are made in these games because the Lions have enough advantages at the outset. As for Clokey, he's such a courageous player, always willing to go for the ball no matter what, but there was no excuse for the way Lynch grabbed him and threw him around. I bet if the shoe were on the other foot, Lynch would be throwing a hissy fit about how he was tackled and would have scored a free and a lollipop from the umpires. That's it, I've had my vent!!!

That was so stupid by Lynch. He could have snapped Clokes neck.
But if LLyod can get off by punching someone i think the same will happen to Lynch.

DISGRACEFUL!! It shook Clokey up for a min too. Who wouldn't of been... No-one would of been expecting that.. If they can call lloyd up for the punch, then I don't see any reason why this would not be cited as this was 100% worse and could of been serious..I'll be very disappointed if the AFL does nothing about this, which they probably won't.....of course...

Fcking Lynch- dirrty P.O.S- Man i was fuming- it was a disgraceful- like Joffa sed- Jason could have been seriously injured, no way in hell could he have been able to prepare himself for the tackle and fall!!!! Lynch layed the tackle with intent to hurt Jason and should be penalised!!!

"U BETTER WATCH OUT- U BETTER GO HIDE- U BETTER RUN A MILE- IM TELLING U WHY- HANNAHS COMING AFTER U - HURTING CLOKEY WASNT THE RIGHT THING TO DO"

He MUST get at least 3 weeks.

It was deliberate. It was dangerous. It was intended to cause injury. And it was completely illegal.

That's what SHOULD happen.

But as for what WILL happen ... Question

Totally agree.

This was not the WWE we were watching and that was not a soft canvas that Clokey landed on.

Only a slightly more acute angle and Clokey was looking at para or quadriplegia !!

3 weeks is nothing. He should miss the season or be out of the game for life because hes a joke anyway. 3 weeks is not enough. 11 weeks if not the season. DISCRACEFULL!

Im will contact eddie during the week and ask or plead that the club make some sort of protest or complaint and i realise that i might be over stepping the line but for godsake this could of been a very sad incident this is no sour grapes thing because we got beat, its to do with principles and the well being of a fine young person and footballer jason cloke.
jason cloke plays the ball hard week after week and is a fair player and he must be protected by these acts of thuggery.

..... imagine if... one A Rocca put together the same action but on one Ackermanis.

I would then picture a 50 m penalty being given and on Tuesday night, Anthony (or anyone else who did it) being suspended for 4 weeks.

Can anyone else here say that they couldn't see that happening... or is that just our 'luck'?
