Ok, we have the AFL saying the umps got it wrong, media commentators "going ballistic" and everyone else singing For the Lions are Jolly Good Fellows but the Swans get to keep the 4 points and (seemingly) escape any further scrutiny.
All I've heard from the Swans camp are some mealy-mouthed comments from their coach that "fortunately" Sinclair "appears" to have avoided any serious injury. Also, the Lions have "accepted" the situation and are happy to "move on".
Why has this grubby little piece of opportunism by the Swans been allowed to die such a meek death?
The way Sinclair was writhing in agony at the time, a casual (or even not so casual) observer could be forgiven for believing that he had suffered a really bad injury: a PCL maybe, a dislocated knee or an ACL.
But no....just an ordinary "garden variety" knee cramp.
Knee Cramp?????.....is there even such a thing?
Then he just trots off as though it was just a .....knee cramp.
At the very least, the Swans should be required to provide a medical report about MR Sinclair's "knee cramp" and why it caused such agonizing consequences for the poor fellow.
Otherwise it's just another case of temporary outrage followed by sweep it under the carpet and "move on"
