Rising Fremantle key forward Jye Amiss is being unfairly “manhandled” off the ball and needs umpires to protect him better, says Dockers coach Justin Longmuir. Amiss, 20, kicked two goals in his return from concussion on Sunday, as Fremantle claimed a 15.13 to 6.13 win at the MCG over Richmond.
“AFL footballers are very smart. So we’ll continue that with the AFL. We need to look after him because I am concerned at times that he’s going to get injured.” Longmuir stressed Amiss was fine and unbothered by his treatment “But I feel like as a coach, and as a club, we’ve got to look after him,” he added. Longmuir said Fremantle hadn’t received the “result” they’d wanted from the AFL yet, but would remain “in dialogue” with them and continue to point out examples of Amiss being “manhandled”.
