ach hope not, I thought the bulldog player pushed him through and on the slow mo it looked like a legit connection nothing head high from Morris was mostly laid on his player for tipping him over.

MRP are just waiting to see if Slobbo has anything to say about it first...

what is this now, woman's day?  We care about blokes hair cuts?

Yep sorry...so just to throw it out there......

I'll be interested to see if the new look MRP has a look at Morris' involvement in the incident in the final qtr that resulted in the Bulldog player being stretchered off.

I remarked at the time to Jackstar who was sitting behind me that I thought he was in massive strife because he didn't have eyes for the ball.

At the time I didn't realise that the Bulldog player copped from his teammate first but he did cop Morris' shoulder. Have since watched the replay and acknowledge the impact the other Bulldog player had in the collision but I am still curious to see whether they look at it none the less

I made a similar comment about Morris maybe being in trouble since you never know what the MRP is going to do. Similar to Viney though since Morris had to chance to avoid him and just braced himself.

Can we get back to the pressing issue of his hair pls.

I don't want to get precious on this, but i just don't think it was a captains haircut.  Or maybe just too much flyaway and needed some product

Yep.

Needs to shave it off.

In fact if I was coach I'd tell every player to shave their head or they wouldn't get a game. Serious!

That's a little extreme, no? It's not like we are running a cult

The incident involving Morris was looked at but he's in the clear  :thumbsup.



Other incidents assessed:
Contact between Richmond’s Steven Morris and the Western Bulldogs’ Josh Prudden from the fourth quarter of Saturday’s NAB Challenge match at the Whitten Oval was assessed. The panel said that Prudden was running towards a loose ball in the middle of the ground with his team mate Koby Stevens coming from the side and Morris coming from the opposite direction. Prudden had attempted to take possession of the ball when he made head contact with his team mate Stevens as they met the ball. The Bulldogs’ player was then bumped almost simultaneously by Morris. It was the view of the panel that any high contact by player Morris on player Prudden was caused by circumstances outside the control of the Richmond player, which he could not have reasonably foreseen, after initial contact between the two Bulldogs’ players. No further action was taken.

Thought they'd look at it, they had too.

Good to see common sense prevail

Reckon Morris owes Koby Stevens a beer  ;D

 :clapping Let's hope the common sense shown in this scenario is indicative of the way the new MRP will work and not just the first of many contradictions

hope so..

Daniel Harford comes across as a very measured individual, talked a lot of sense in the past when it comes to these incidents, hopefully his common sense approach catches on at the MRP

It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”
