AFL: West Coast forward Jack Darling could be in hot water following a concussion on Collingwood's Jack Bytel.
West Coast veteran Jack Darling has been cleared of a hefty sanction by the AFL for his collision with Collingwood recruit Jack Bytel yesterday afternoon.
“It was the view of the MRO that the contact was predominantly caused by circumstances outside the control of Darling,” read the statement. The former Saint, who was playing his first game for new club Collingwood on Sunday, came on for injured teammate Jeremy Howe at quarter time after injuring his hamstring.
Four players this season have been handed a ban of three weeks or more by the MRO – with Jimmy Webster and Sam Powell-Pepper sanction din the pre-season, before Jack Higgins and Callum Brown were given three weeks each in the home-and-away fixture.
