Nathan Schmook:

Andrew Woods now summarising. All evidence points to medium impact, he says.

Michael Tovey QC summarising. He says vision is not definitive re medium/low impact.

He says the MRP would not have graded impact medium without GWS medical report.

Tovey asking jury to consider if the medical report convinces them it is medium impact? He says the vision clearly suggests it was a low impact hit. "Safe and fair" decision is low impact.

Nathan Schmook:

John Hassett now giving directions to the jury of Richard Loveridge, Wayne Henwood and Wayne Schimmelbusch.

For those asking, Edwards' counsel haven't raised the issue of whether contact was to the eye that Sumner injured.

The jury might decide to place more weight on the vision than the medical report, which would help Edwards.

Jury yet to deliberate. we could be here for another 10-15mins before a decision is reached.

I strongly disagree. Has been great this year. His ability to dish out a handball and hit a target in heavy traffic has been a real asset to the team
