Bet on AFL report - Barry Hall out for 7 Weeks
Category: AFL Online
I can barely remember a more anticipated trip to the AFL tribunal than that of Barry Hall last night following his shocking and seemingly unprovoked “king hit” on Brent Staker on the weekend. Bet on AFL brings you the following on the incident.
Hall has copped a 7 week ban on the chin saying that he was “prepared to cop whatever came my way” as he left the hearing last night. He has also again offered an apology to Brent Staker for the punch which he says was unacceptable and has vowed to return to the game a better man after his suspension is completed. www.centrebet.com.au offered odds on this outcome along with the match and you can register with them now to score a bet refund on your 1st bet!
Brent Staker has now been cleared for a possible broken jaw from the incident and there is a chance that he will play in the Eagles Sunday match against Port at Subiaco.
The Eagles were left a man down after the incident while Hall was reported and was able to continue on with play. The AFL as a whole has never considered a send off rule similar to that in Rugby League and other games, but there is a call now for this to be seriously considered in instances where serious incidents occur such as this.
Wether the Swans be able to hold their own without Hall for 7 matches remains to be seen.
