One of the camera angles showed the opposite of that.Docker_Brat said:The elbow came out after the bump.

There was NO elbow involved. it came up after contact was made and as Carey said it is a natural reaction to follow through bringing the elbow up AFTER contact.
The ball was within 5 metres. This deems it a legal bump and the only thing that made it illegal was the fact that it was high. Stengelin didn't run and launch himself into the kid, he simply followed through with a good, strong bump and unfortunately he hade contact with the head.
Abolutely nothing in this and if he goes then the new tribunal system is an absolute joke along with half the idiots on here who think a bump is a dog act.
On what charge? Striking?SirBloodyIdiot said:2 or 3.
You can not say it is worth 0.
Elbow out, ball a fair whack away.

Wasnt overly malicious. No way was the elbow tucked in....the elbow was halfway up at the point of impact and he got hit in between the elbow and shoulder. Still...it got him flush in the face. Supposedly, the face/head is a no go zone.
Its just about consistency. Gehrig gets a couple for a fairytap...so does Hall....but you can completely clean up someone with a hard hit in the face and get nothing.
deeps said:i fail to see how the elbow was tucked in. you guys got sucked in by wayne carey's commentary. I recorded the game, and i have gone over that particular replay abotu 20 times, and there is no way the elbow is tucked in.
elbow tucked in: elbow right up against my own abdomen/waist area. There is a distinctive gap between the two area's on the replay. The elbow was defintaly sticking out. This is not allowed.
However, for those of you that say it wasn't in play, you are incorrect. The ball was most definately in play, and eckers had just spilt it.
The only thing wrong with the bump, is that the elbow is protruding outward. The timing, the placement etc etc. are all fine.
I'm a port supporter, but this is my totally unbiased view after watching it many times.
UNIT said:Then it was a fair bump....
UNIT said:The elbow was jarred out during the bump....if you cant see that go too www.opsm.com and have yourself sorted out.
