[QUOTE="pagliaccio_euforico, post: 1085542, member: 73648"] just got around to watching the red as I was racking up some billable hours at the time so I missed it . . . 1. he's running an obstruction line but I don't think that means you can hit him in the head (I should edit this to say that the fact that it happens behind the ball before he gets a chance to obstruct specifically means that you can't make contact with him) 2. I think it's pretty clear we've put the onus on the defensive player to be responsible for their body's movements. He found himself too close to an offensive player at high speed and braced himself with a shoulder. Unfortunately he hit the other guy in the head which is a red cad. I feel him for him but that's how things go. [/QUOTE]
