These 2 videos are bad examples of what you are trying to convey. Especially the Aho one. That was a clean hit.

Sure, where theres smoke theres fire! But also, it could be that Gio is a physical Dman whose play puts him in these positions from time to time.

This isn't Bryan Marchament we're talking about.
