I was getting mighty frustrated with the commentators when SCOS threw up the anti-block device and copped Cripps a beauty. Gold ol' Jonathon Brown was playing it down and even mentioned Cripps had gone the block, but had to soon change his tune when he realised where his paycheque comes from.
The TV broadcast showed nothing of Cripps holding his jaw. Yet David King and co were very quick to talk it up as a broken jaw. David King was saying it was "viscious", and saying Cripps was on the bench "holding his jaw", "in real trouble", meanwhile the TV is showing Cripps leaning forward clearing his nose and still showing no indication of any serious trouble to his jaw.
And now, like all good propaganda, the vast majority, including the tribunal will have the seed sown and believe that SCOS got him with a viscious intentional 70m off the ball elbow which (could have) broke his jaw. SCOS will now end up getting the same penalty he would have got, if he had have broken Cripps jaw. Anything over 4 weeks will be another massive injustice ... which is what I expect.
