He's a stuffwad.

Saying "it wasn't my greatest moment" reeks of cowardice and denial.

It was in fact, a disgraceful act , yet he can't seem to openly admit it.

Basically he's admitted nothing to suggest he isn't feeling justified in his action
Disagree. If Devon told him his mother was a so and so he should not have turned his back on him. Once people sledge personally they are open to any retaliation IMHO!

Ooh poor boy couldn't handle getting sledged

Give me a spell

If Smith did indeed say something insulting to an Italian about his mother then I would suggest Conca probably held back.

Dog act??? Stuff me what planet are you guys on if you think it was a dog act. Bunch of whining Nanna's. Blame's hit on Southby was far worse. Fist to the head and severe concussion as a result! And that's a 70's concussion which was one step away from a fractured skull. Harden up school girls.....

Sounds like you're as much in denial as Reece is ? It was a dog's act no doubt , and if I'm a schoolgirl for thinking that then half of Melbourne will need to order a new school uniform along with me.
As for harden up ? Well if someone did that to my kid playing local footy I'd be straight over the fence for retribution.
My whole point originally was that he should've apologised publicly the next day.
Anyhows , he's got more pressing issues....like getting a kick

What do you think of people that pull jumpers over peoples heads and run away?
Dunno , never thought about it. Wouldn't bother me if it happened to me so long as the bloke didn't start punching me in the head while my jumper was pulled over it.
May not be as dog but for me that is much more cowardice

Umm. No.

I just was getting at; isn't it funny conca was declared Satan. With half of the country demanding prision time and 15 werks off.

Yet not a sparrow fartrd about the guy that pulled the blokes shirt over his head before sprinting off the field of play. Hardly actions to write home to grand ma about

With the AFL there always has to be a saint and a sinner. Its their MO. Have to think of the kids, have to think of the mothers, therefore we have to have a scapegoat in the interests of political correctness. IMO If nobody gets hurt then it should all be left on the field.

I had less issues with Concas aggression that our feeble play in the first half of the year.
I reckon we had a "line in the sand" moment last year which meant some players went a little over the top. Concas reaction was a classic case of making sure he didn't let the twirp get away with his act.
No problem with that despite it being a little extravagant.

Having said that - Yes - Conca should worry about getting a kick
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.
