Shannon Hurn

Didn't see the bump he gave Stewart. Was it that bad?? How many weeks is he likely to be out?

[Justin Bieber]

yep. reminds me a little of lloyd's one on sewell. stewart ended up with a broken nose and concussion from what i read. should get more than kosi as he didn't really hurt malceski.

i would say anywhere from 3 - 8 weeks out. depends really on how the match review panel see it. and he was in my sc team :'(

[Fletch74]

Thanks HP. He's in my SC team as well... Didn't realise it was that bad. Ouch!!

[reesbr]

damn. trade him????

[Kewell]

Does he have any points carried over?? I can't remember the last time he was at the tribunal. If that's the case and he has no points carried over and can make an early plea I'd imagine anywhere from 2-4 weeks.

[Justin Bieber]

damn. trade him????

i am if he is out for anymore than 4 weeks. if he is out for 3 weeks, got goose there to cover him.

Think he has a clean slate Kewell but not sure. never seen him reported before though.

[reesbr]

yeah same. no more than 4 weeks

[gerco]

According to his player profile on this site, he has never been reported, so he will have some brownie points when it comes the severity of the suspension.

Hurn goes for the ball, as does Stewart in the opposite direction. Stewart lowers body. Hurn has split second decision to go for ball or bump. Hurn has to tuck elbow in and brace himself for bump. Stewart gets hit a bit high and cops a broken nose.

I am expecting him to be suspended for 2-3 weeks, which I think is bullshower. What else was Hurn supposed to do in that situation? I mean he has to protect himself from the impact of his opponent who went in low for the ball. When I first saw Hurn go for the bump, I thought that it was a bloody good bump, but unfortunate that he collected Stewart a bit high.

As for trading Hurn. Why would you if you have decent backup bench options. Hurn is an absolute gun!

[Justin Bieber]

rethought my trade. might keep him instead if it is just for a month. save a trade.

the bump was fair i agree. just a little high but the thing that will hurt him the most is the injuries stewart received. tribunal looks at the medical reports and also changes the sentences according to them.

I agree, no need to trade if you have Goose or Silvagni on the bench

3 games if he fights it, 2 games if he pleads guility. Pretty sure he'll take the 2

[ossie85]

Yeah, he'll take the two. No chance of appeal
