\u201cCertainly the De Goey hit on Worrell \u2013 only because the comparison to a one-week suspension three weeks ago is so fresh,\u201d Fox Footy\u2019s Jon Ralph reported of the third quarter hit.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe elects to bump \u2013 he doesn\u2019t contest the ball. He makes clear head high contact.\u201d<\/p>\n

While stating the contact appears low impact, Ralph pointed to Cats big man Shannon Neale\u2019s recent ban for a similar hit.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo Jake Lloyd gets hit by Shannon Neale in Round 23 \u2013 it was assessed as medium impact and it was one week,\u201d Ralph said.<\/p>\n
\u201cJake Lloyd gets up pretty quickly, he plays on \u2013 if you\u2019re lining up those two incidents you\u2019re saying how does one become a week and one become a fine?<\/p>\n
\u201cMichael Christian isn\u2019t someone who\u2019s going to say because it\u2019s a final I\u2019m going to let him off.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it\u2019s more likely to be a one week (ban).<\/p>\n
\u201cI believe in my heart of hearts it should be low impact and be a fine. I just line up those two incidents and think they are both so similar.<\/p>\n
\u201cI hope for Jordan\u2019s sake this is only a fine and he\u2019s able to play in a preliminary final \u2013 but we\u2019ll wait.\u201d<\/p>\n
Three-time premiership Tiger Jack Riewoldt believes the intent of De Goey could be enough to separate the incident from a similar fate to Neale.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy opinion is the Shannon Neale one wasn\u2019t in play; it was off the ball, a couple of metres away and clearly he was going to shepherd to bump. I do think De Goey is making some play on the ball, whether it\u2019s to come in and shepherd, he\u2019s close enough here,\u201d Riewoldt argued.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will be the biggest talking point when the MRO findings come out.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is the moment to go down to the ball \u2013 he is still high enough to collect Worrell in the head.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ralph then described Worrell\u2019s bump on Schultz from the fourth term as a \u201cvery similar incident\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe certainly gets him maybe with more of a forearm. He throws his arms back \u2013 he knows he\u2019s made some high contact,\u201d Ralph said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAgain, I think that\u2019s more of a glancing blow. I think it\u2019s more of a low level fine, couple of thousand bucks down to a thousand with a guilty plea.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are really line-ball incidents and what happens in Round 23 has a direct precedent three weeks later even though we don\u2019t feel like those should be suspensions.\u201d<\/p>\n
Riewoldt said the loss of either player would be a massive out for their respective clubs.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s big stakes to play at the MRO this week,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
AFL great Jason Dunstall had described De Goey as \u201cone of the best players on the ground\u201d in the qualifying final win.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat also stood out to me was his pace around the contest \u2013 they made the Adelaide midfield in particular look very slow,\u201d Dunstall praised.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s obviously fit \u2026 Even in tight contests, look at the pace! He can burst away!<\/p>\n
\u201cHe led them a merry dance.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Collingwood star Jordan De Goey will be sweating on the AFL\u2019s Match Review after his bump that made…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":118383,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[560],"tags":[638,64,63,55,639,10133,83786,83780,83785,77655,12149,681,27725,12126,10140,83784,8004,83781,83782,19095,64903,83783,85,18394],"class_list":["post-118382","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-afl","tag-afl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australian-football-league","tag-australianfootballleague","tag-collingwood-magpies","tag-feared-bump-ban","tag-gun-sweating","tag-head-contact","tag-jake-lloyd","tag-jason-dunstall","tag-jon-ralph","tag-jordan-de-goey","tag-josh-worrell","tag-lachie-schultz","tag-line-ball-incidents","tag-michael-christian","tag-nervous-wait","tag-one-match-bans","tag-preliminary-final","tag-qualifying-final","tag-qualifying-final-win","tag-sports","tag-talking-point"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118382","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=118382"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118382\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/118383"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=118382"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=118382"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=118382"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
