The Craig Wing hit and the Anasta hit are 2 totally different incidents, and CANNOT be compared. firstly, the Wing hit may have been considered not in "the spirit of the game", but never did the tackle hit Wing high, hence the main reason why Brown was cleared.

Now onto the Anasta hit, yes- hunt may have not intended to get Anasta high, and yes- it was a shoulder charge, but the fact of the matter is- ANASTA WAS HIT HIGH, and coaches decided at the seasons COACHES meeting to protect players more, therefore and high contact this season will be penalised.

i tihnk Hunt will have a case to answer, although in his favour anasta was falling and it was a shoulder, not an elbow as i first thought.

bottom line- 2 different tackles, and after the match review committee come together and hunt gets charged, this will show that.
