Jumping with your knees first isn't reckless though, it's what 90% of people jumping for the ball do... Seriously you can watch any game of RL back and see it happen multiple times in every single one of them. He also hasn't been charged with anything by the MRP, which also suggest that he didn't break any laws. They're not exactly shy of charging our players, either
I don't actually believe murphy was watching the ball or jumped for the ball. He jumped beyond the ball which h missed and landed behind him. He jumped to put the catcher off. Edgell was in position and about to jump by the looks of his stance. If he' have jumped earlier he would have been coming down before catching the ball which came down noticably after Murphy had made contact with Edgell.
Yep, just out to cause a bit of chaos. Nowt wrong with that but that level of contact with the head is always more likely than not to draw a yellow these days
