Complete dog act and would have thrilled his sniper coach.

Got to be worth two or three weeks one would think.

Wasn't he recently suspended, or recently in front of the MRP for some reason? They love repeat offenders in quick succession.

I thought Roo was dead for a minute and, really, he should miss next week with concussion, though we all know he will insist on playing as the team needs him.

I hope they make an example of Ziebel.

Howl me down if you want but I actually thought there was a sniff of evasive action in what he was doing. He'll go, but it was no Lloyd on Sewell...

No eyes for the ball and blindsided a guy with his head down.

Like I said, he'll go, but on the replay I reckon he was attempting a late hurdle. Only too late. Still he copped him high, effectively knocked him out, was airborne and it looked horrible.

Could have been a tragedy.

He did not follow the coaches orders properly, he forgot to put the shoulder in after :P

I agree with you. He will definitely get weeks for it - but he doesn't play like that normally, ie snipe blokes, and I thought he was trying to hurdle Roo as well - which made it look even worse in the end. Ppl need to remember these guys are making split second decisions at a million miles an hour. Not excusing what happened, but I don't reckon he was trying to knock Roo out.

Personally, I reckon what Leigh Brown did to Roo 80m off the ball in Rd 3 last year before Roo did his hammy, far worse. Was a premeditated block which caught him completely unawares. That sort of thing far worse than the intent of Ziebell. I reckon with an early plea he'll get 2 weeks.

Agreed Thinline. I was as p***** as anyone when it happened live, but thinking about it and seeing the replay at the ground, I actually think that Ziebell realised just a split second too late that he was going to hit Roo high, and jumped to try to and miss him.

But then again, maybe I'm being overly charitable given Rooey's terrific game and our awesome win. :?:

I actually like the kid.

I agree with TL, I think he tried to hurdle.

Goneski though, 3 weeks at least, the most damage he did thought was fire up the No 12 some more.

They tried to play the man around that portion of the match, glad the guys didn't get sucked in.

watching the replay , nick was hurt by the first contact , but it was when he was on the ground and ziebel then fell on him that his eyes glazed over a bit . I think he will be alright as they didn't sub him off in the last quarter.

Absolutely gone...5-6 weeks is fanciful (given the way the MRP works - points adjusted to the team they are applied to), but will definitely have an extended pre-season.
