NORTH Melbourne goalsneak Lindsay Thomas is set to come under fierce scrutiny for his off-the-ball bump that floored Magpie Ben Reid.

Thomas appeared to collide with Reid high and the Collingwood defender was taken from the field for medical treatment.

The incident sparked a mini melee in the third quarter of the Etihad Stadium clash, with Reid bleeding from the mouth.

He was immediately taken to the rooms.


While its impact was far less, the collision bared some resemblance to Danial Giansiracusa's heavy collision with Saint Justin Koschitzke in 2006.

But while the Dogs star escaped without penalty, the rules on high contact and bumps have tightened since.

Social media was divided on whether Thomas would be rubbed out, but former Pies ruckman Josh Fraser leapt to the Roo's defence.

"Players block off the ball like Thomas did all the time. Not sure it's the crime people are making out," he tweeted.

The incident came among a stretch of Magpie goals as the undermanned side kicked four goals clear after the halftime break.
