C'mon,genuine 50/50 ball at high speed until last bounce enabled Aish to grab it.
Is he then expected to just let him run away with it instead of bracing to protect himself?
Imagine if he had,there was a goal the difference in last quarter.

Hard to argue with a biomechanist who says Sicily couldn't have done anything to prevent him hitting his head. I'm sure they will find a way...
Sounds like the afl are trying to say that because one arm was pinned (one closest to the ground) that Sicily is at fault.

Can’t wait for the ‘catch and release’ technique that players will be encouraged to commit.

Tough in these split decision moments….fact he turned side on counted against him unfortunatel.
I would say he should have tackled but now even that is fraught with ⚠️ danger
