I think it was Jason Chan. To be fair having seen the replays it didn't look all that bad (relatively). He was already in the air when the ball was kicked and there was no contact made with anything other than the shoulder. Yellow card about enough, I expect he'll get a warning from the judiciary. I've certainly seen worse cahllenges not punished. Unfortunate that Brown got injured, but good to hear that he's apparently OK.

according to kev he went to a barbecue in the evenin and found it difficult to chew meat which suggests it was higher than his shoulder. anyway main thing is he's ok and should be ok for Wire !

Sorry, should have been clearer, I was referring to Chan's shoulder (as opposed to elbow, forearm etc). Certainly not suggesting it was a great challenge, and I'm sure the disciplinary mob will look at it from more angles than I've seen it. I just think I've seen worse, nad I've certainly seen later. If I were on the judiciary, I'd be more worried about the height than the timing to be honest.

Like you say, main thing is that the kid's OK. Always worrying to see that length of treatment, but you can't take too many precautions with neck and head injuries.

Was it Chan that caught Mcnally at the start of the game?
