Head hits are going to happen, and I don't think a player will deliberately go for another player's head.
People like you frustrate me.

100s of hits a week and only 3 this week, none (from memory) last week and 2
the week before and not many before that that are dangerous and head high. I
am sorry, but I accept we have to lose some players like this for a week or
two to make sure that players don't miss weeks with head injures or worst
yet, Next injuries! As I said in today's
podcast (http://afl.mollyzine.com/2008/06/02/mmm-head-hi...
system-explained), I think teams shouldn't tell their players to
stop bumping, just be more careful, consider getting the ball more and wear
that occasionally if you do it wrong you miss a week. A lot of the hits are
just plain not necessary. I remember a situation in the Cats V Blues game
where the player could have bumped and would have been in trouble, but he
stopped and tackled instead and from memory won the free kick. If anyone
knows when that happened, let me know as I will put the video on the site.
