Following the Freo sling tackle that knocked out Port Adelaide’s Robbie Gray, Crow forward Josh Jenkins says the AFL should consider bringing in a red card system.
“When you see a Harris Andrews or Robbie Gray get their game ended… it affected Port big-time yesterday,” Jenkins said on Monday.
“They already had an injury to a key player and irrespective or not whether you consider the player that is injured be one of the best or worst players, you’re still down.
“I looked at the stats last night, Port only used about 50 rotations… so it has a big impact.
“So it is something worth talking about. I think it should be discussed.
“You could link it up with, you can’t come back until that person that is injured comes back.
“There is a lot to work through I guess, but I’m not opposed to it.”
