Was amazing that he came back on to be honest, looked cooked.

It was funny (not for Richmond or Hopper of course), but was tuned into Triple MMM and they made it sound like they needed to put the tent up at the time of injury, to he could've run a marathon before he was off the field. the change in tone was funny to hear in the space of 2 minutes!

More or less how it went, stopped the game and looked like a stretcher might come out and by the time he was off the field he was basically jogging.

If it was soccer you'd say it was tactical to stem momentum.

RICHMOND'S Nathan Broad has been sent straight to the Tribunal for his sling tackle on Adelaide's Patrick Parnell and is facing at least three weeks on the sidelines.

Port Adelaide's Ryan Burton, meanwhile, has copped a two-week ban for his sling tackle on Collingwood's Jamie Elliott, while North Melbourne co-captain Jy Simpkin has copped a week for a strike on Fremantle's Caleb Serong.

Broad's tackle on Parnell was judged to be careless, high contact and severe impact, meaning he has been sent straight to the Tribunal

Broad in hot water after brutal tackle
Nathan Broad is likely to find himself on the sidelines after this sling tackle on Patrick Parnell during the first quarter
Published 1 day ago
Parnell spent a couple of minutes on the ground before he was helped off the field by club trainers and was subbed out of the game in the first quarter.

The Crows' high performance boss Darren Burgess confirmed post-match that Parnell had suffered a concussion and had been placed into the League's concussion protocols, effectively ruling the 21-year-old out of next round's Showdown.


Burton's tackle on Elliott at the MCG was also ruled careless and high contact, but the lesser high impact grading sees him cop a two-week ban.
