Menzie is a legend but can be a liability at times, picks up a couple of bans every season for dangerous tackles, suppose it comes with the territory of such a big hitter, especially with his style of tackling, hardly textbook.
About 20 years ago Brandan Tuuta played for Fev and now has 'legend' status!
His defensive style and aggression in the tackle left him with a reputation that kept coming back to haunt him at each disciplinary hearing.
He once broke Heslop's jaw (Oldham) and the sound of the punch he threw at him was shuddering.
He his regarded with hero status for all his efforts at Fev but I can't ever recall him being carded when he didn't deserve it - and nor would I have defended him.
Yere is of a similar style. Big and aggressive in the tackle that leaves little tolerance for error without it being borderline at least, and so it proved with the tackle on Heppy.
As I said, it's not the fall of Rome is it? A player made a dangerous tackle and has been suspended. C'est la vie.
When has he got a ban before?
think he had a one match earlier in the season, definitely last season.
