Agree.

Miles off the ball.
High impact.
Intentional.
Clenched fist.
Other player didn't expect it and had no reason to protect himself.
Huge medical impact (broken jaw).
Weak - kid he punched is only 18/19.

If I were a Richmond supporter, I would be very very happy with this.

[Toy Saint]

Reckon he was sick of being niggled and thrashed out, probably meant to hit him in the chest, unfortunately Brayshaw put his jaw in the way...oh well, reckon he should get 4 weeks.

More than four surely. 6 minimum.

[The Recruit]

There is no way Andrew Gaff will want to play at stkilda next year

I cannot think of 1 reason

Team is devoid of talent
Coaching is terrible
Crowds are terrible
Most games will be Sunday arvo under a roof
FFS his captain would be Geary....forget Gaff

Also forget ANY free agents apart from the desperados wanting to be a saint in 2019.
We need to focus on getting our coaches right and trade back into this draft.

[suss]

What an epic brain snap. Fingers crossed he’s played his last game for the Eagles (before joining us) but I suspect he’ll get three to four weeks only and play finals.

Yes, but a truckload of cash might change his mind.

[Teflon]

We’re like a drunk desperate bloke in a pub just before closing time.

Going for anything that has a pulse, but going home alone.

I just love the imagery your statement makes SainPav

Bring back memories Loris?

[saintbob]

He might miss a couple of early games next year, if Brayshaw’s jaw is broken!!

[1965 Saint]

I was at the game and it was right in front of us. I think he meant to whack Brayshaw in the chest but missed!

Appalling incident. Unforgivable. Do NOT want him at the Saints !!!! I would would rather forego seeing the Saints win a Premiership than sell our soul to Gaff. Memories of Barry Hall to Sydney. The flag the Swans with him is tainted and worthless. Gaff should hang his boots up and retire now. The sight of that young Dockers player after the incident was heartbreaking. The fact that Gaff kept playing and the fights that broke out after the incident must speak to the need for a red card rule.

Settle. I saw it live and he missed unfortunately. Was not a deliberate king hit.

We better give back our own flag then because Cowboy Kneale kicked five.

[Toy Saint]

Kell makes a good point about the need for a red card. Getting the culprit out of the game probably would have prevented the subsequent fights.

Whilst I don't believe it was a deliberate king hit, it was nevertheless extreme brain fade. A bit like driving home just a little bit over .05 and running down a child at a pedestrian crossing. Not deliberate, and the perpetrator is extremely mortified, but guilty by any measure.

Regardless of this incident, I'd love to have him at St Kilda.

What’s the definition of a deliberate king hit? Was certainly deliberate. Broke Brayshaw’s jaw. Deliberate, high impact strike. No amount of after the event hand wringing changes that and he should go big time for it.
Does a bloke have to be knocked out cold for it to be a king hit?

Wasn't a king hit, a king hit is when someone is not looking!!!!!

Geez some get carried away!!!!!

A king hit is when someone is not prepared to receive the hit like you wouldn’t expect to be punched in the jaw on a footy field. It was no less a king hit than Hall vs Staker.

That's your opinion, your can have it!!!!!

I'm not condoning what Gaff did, not at all, however, if you constantly prod and probe someone in a physical manner, then you should be expecting a reaction!!!!! So, when you are looking and expecting a reaction of some sort, that is not a king hit, IMEO!!!!!

Each to their own!!!!!

Gaff over reacted in a very bad way, let's not hang him or nail him to a cross!!!!!

Says much, when you have to drop Barry Hall in the conversation, piss poor really, anything else you'd like to blame him for?????

[saintbob]

The Dees are pretty confident they are getting Gaff. If you were him, and you had the choice between us and Melbourne on similar deals, it would be a no-brainer after this season.

Angus would be happy to see him, I bet!!

[Wayne42]

Gaff is a thug, let Melbourne have him.
