Jack Crisp faces a nervous wait to see if his record games streak will continue but there\u2019s hope he may avoid suspension for a tackle that left a North Melbourne opponent concussed.<\/p>\n

Collingwood defender Billy Frampton is also sweating over the findings of the match review officer for a dangerous tackle that has him in danger of missing the Pies\u2019 blockbuster against the resurgent Carlton next week.<\/p>\n

Crisp is under the scrutiny after a tackle that left Kangaroos newcomer Tom Blamires concussed in the Pies\u2019 four-point win on Friday night. If suspended, it would snap his record games streak at 279 \u2013 35 more matches than the previous record held by the late Melbourne great Jimmy Stynes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

In another notable case this season, North small forward Paul Curtis was banned for three games for a tackle that left West Coast\u2019s Hamish Davis with concussion.<\/p>\n

Crisp\u2019s case is different to Curtis\u2019s in that he does not pin Blamires\u2019s arms, thereby allowing his opponent to brace for a fall. Blamires, though, did not take this protective action.<\/p>\n

For Crisp to be suspended, the MRO would need to find Blamires was slung to the ground with excessive force or was in a vulnerable position with an arm pinned and unable to protect himself.<\/p>\n

Pies coach Craig McRae said he had not seen the incident but recognised there could be a case for his player to answer given Blamires\u2019 injury.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf he\u2019s tackled him and he\u2019s been concussed, obviously there\u2019s something to answer for,\u201d McRae said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut that\u2019ll be disappointing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought Jack had a great game. Critical moments.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019ll be a big loss, and he hasn\u2019t missed a game for so long \u2013 he\u2019ll be shattered.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s a record that\u2019s his for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Frampton is under the microscope over a tackle on North\u2019s Matt Whitlock late in the final quarter that was ruled dangerous by the umpire.<\/p>\n

Frampton appeared to roll Whitlock to the side but did not let go. Whitlock played out the closing minutes of the game though a medical report from North may determine if Frampton is suspended or escapes with a fine should he be cited.<\/p>\n
