    He will get suspended this time - and if he doesn't Cameron should drop him for two weeks for disciplinary reasons. Cameron specifically warned him about going OTT. Dirty player.

    And the commentators tried to make out it wasn't dangerous when Libba's head was slammed into the ground

    Not sure if we watching the same thing but his head was hardly slammed into the ground. Mummy fell on top of him. There was no sling motion. Unlike some of his past dangerous tackles.

    Yes he is a dirty player. And I hate defending those GWS grubs but i really think it was a secondary attempt to spoil. He will likely get a fine. Careless,
    high contact, low impact. What i found extraordinary was what the ump said along the lines of "you have been treading a fine line for past couple of weeks". I would have thought they would have to umpire each game and incident on its merits. Doesn't sound like a lot of impartiality there. Dirty player though.

    They were umpiring a game involving the fairypuppies - impartiality is therefore not required.

    Yep.
    The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.
