Quite. The Johnson ruling narrowed the scope even further so Dawes would actually have to been receiving attention from trainers as I understand it?Originally Posted by Bexl
What is Mumford's carry over points? Surely he didn't sling tackle?
The AFL have said the umpires have not requested vision and neither the Swans nor Collingwood have been contacted by the AFL. Media beat up
so he's ok then???

It's got nothing to do with the umpires anyway. It's not their job to review footage etc after the game, if they haven't made a report during it. The MRP would review / investigate (you'd assume they would at least look into it now).
It would have to be something major for it to be classified "misconduct" - as others have said, surely the 'interferring with an injured player' argument is irrelevant in this case. Given that, hopefully anything that did happen falls back into the 'insufficient force to warrant a report' category.
That pretty much covers it off, the MRP will look at all the footage as they normally do and they will probably look for the incident concerned if the umpires report mentions it.
As others have noted, it can't be interference while being treated as that never happened and for it to be misconduct you would have needed Mumford to pull out a baseball bat and smack him to get anywhere near a charge like that.
Darcy went early as he thought he had scoope but in the end it's nothing more than a bit of muck raking from a channel 7 employee (who is probably a Collingwood supporter).

He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)
