Wilson, who weighs 102kgs, said he was running at full pace, could not stop himself and needed to turn his body in order to protect his groin.

“I wouldn’t like to do that (only raise his arms) because it does leave your groin open…although it protects you head and ribs.”

“At the pace I was going there was no way I could deviate, move left or right or slow down.”

“All you can think is – I’m going to collide, I’d better protect myself,” Wilson said.

I commend the man, the groin defence would have got him off the hook if I were judge too. Can't be too careful, he probably follows the boxer short theory too.

I read somewhere that he said the collision was like going thru a red light and seeing a truck coming the other way, brace yourself for impact. Bit of a worry coming from someone with such a penchant for fast cars.

Has the tribunal gone soft or was the Wolfman ahead of his time ?

I reckon good luck to the guy. He went down fighting and came through with the goods. What other stories will we hear now for the rest of the year.

Ok so now you can cannon into some one fair and square in the middle of the back, cry self defence and you're right as rain.
You'd love to know what Andrew McLeod is thinking when he sees that. A bump from him that was actually in the act of play cost him a week and maybe even a brownlow last year.

Good to see the tribunal is off to a pearler and the season hasn't even begun.

Fifty cents each way on your two options Dutchey.

So much for protecting the man going for the ball.

Why don't we grab a gorilla from Borneo and put him at full forward.

Oos, a gorilla at full forward? I'm sure McAndtoss & Slappobitch would love the opportunity to don their safari suits and pith helmets.

Sounsd like the name of the Egirls lawyers
