Did anyone see the incident in the third quarter with play on the outer wing and I think it was Gilbert running 10 metres behind Gamble on the other wing. Gamble stopped, turned and coathangered Gilbert, putting him on the ground.
The emergency umpire went out to Gamble about half a minute later and looked at his number, but I haven't seen if he actually reported him.
Interested if anyone else saw it as it was about 80 metres off the ball.
Also, after the half time siren, as the players were walking off the ground, Mooney was walking behind Gilbert and hit him in the back of the head. It wasn't a hard hit, but was harder than some of these tummy taps they're getting suspended for these days (unless you play for Sydney)
On that last point -- I saw Mooney hit Gilbo in the head too, followed immediately by kicking him in the leg. More childish than viscious, but I expected it would be followed up by replays, slo-mo analysis, character analysis, an AFL report etc. Not a peep.
