But this doesn't discount the seriousness of what a broken neck could or would be for his career and for his life as well.

So that is what...

That is what I'm hearing this morning.

Melbourne will release something formally in the next few hours around his condition.

And we all just hope that he's okay.

And as far as confirmation around the exact prognosis, I don't know.

We don't know.

So it'd be wrong to hypothesize other than to say they are fearing a break in the neck.

Okay.

Billy Frampton was tied up in this with the tackle.

Is there a prospect that he's going to get suspended?

There's a high prospect that Billy Frampton gets three weeks for this.

Careless conduct, severe impact and high contact equals three weeks.

Rough conduct.

Did Billy Frampton exercise his duty of care to my check?

I don't think if Billy Frampton gets three weeks, it's the AFL saying that this is categorically a three-week ban and if the tribunal...

believes otherwise, then they are wrong.

I think this is the sort of thing that they could put up, like they've done in the past with an incident involving Braden Maynard and Angus Brayshaw a few years ago.

And then the tribunal will give more clarity on this sort of incident.

I think I agree with you, Gerard.
