No Oppo Supporters Tom Stewart's targeted KO'ing of Prestia - 4 week ban

[Sterge]

Some of you need to chill out, be better than geelong supporters.

We dont need to wish injuries on anyone or hope someone evens it up.

Just be content in the fact we win when it really matters.

Also the thread is about Stewart and Prestia

 

[beema limapep]

I want at least 6 weeks. No ifs no buts.

Plus payback on the field damn it.

 

[tigersnag]

Such a nice, caring bloke, that Tom. Never looks back.

Definitely not the actions of a man remorseful at what he'd one, more that of a complete coward. Hit and run.

And run run run away he did.

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Careless not intentional - did he not have time to drop his shoulder to minimize point of impact ? He did not vary his body statue to minimize impact - surely intentional ?

Really cant see how its careless and not intentional to be honest

The ball has left the area and there are 5 players in the frame , 4 are looking at the ball and 1 is looking at Prestia and has his shoulder cocked for a hit
at the point of impact the ball is 5 mtrs away in Jack grahams hands.

So whats careless about that ? He is intentionally going the man

 

[Roachy8]

No illegal retributions guys - club and players are bigger and better than that.

I would just make sure Stewart is totally ignored by our players before and after next time we play.
No handshakes, nothing.

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

The elephant in the room is whether the AFL will appeal ala Bachar Houli if the decision is manifestly inadequate.
They’d bloody well want to….

It would have to be Brad Scott that pushes that !!

No Chance that happens

I could live with 5 but 6 would be the right result if the AFL is serious about cutting out head high hits and serious about the concussion issue's

 

[beema limapep]

If he knew he did something wrong (as he claims), why didn't he stop and help Prestia?

He's sorry alright. Sorry he got caught and has to face the music. That's it.

has said pre game "If you get a chance take Prestia out then do so". That is why 1: Nice guy Stewart lined him up from so far away & 2: The excuse that the execution was poor would indicate the intention to line him up and do damage was there but not to knock him out cold. Pre-meditated no doubt, which is one of the things that sickens me about this whole fiasco watching Scott's presser after the game. I have never been so angry after a game with what went on and there was a long list of anti Richmond decisions made that ensured Geelong had a much greater chance of winning, the fix is in. AFL=Corrupt to the core. When does Gill leave again?

Okay, hear me out, like Bachar, Tom Stewart is not a dirty player. He just isn't. What occurred, he's never done that before.
However, in this instance, he intentionally ran past the play to make forceful contact. He made a deliberate decision. He must pay a price.
This is a line in the sand moment for the AFL with their stance on concussion and a statement on the head being sacrosanct.
Now, you ask yourself how the AFL can tick it off (saying the umps call to allow play to continue was correct). Simple, it's about culpable liability. If they admit they did the wrong thing, then does that open the door to being sued down the line?
What's really alarming here is the (justifiable) lack of faith in the AFL on this matter. And as for the lawyer who used to represent us, we were always shithouse at getting our blokes off at the tribunal. Makes sense now.
There should be no bargain/no plea/no deal. For the sake of every player playing moving forward, they have to get this decision right.

It has to be Intentional and upwards of 4 weeks. Well upwards.

 

[beema limapep]

A reminder...

 

[captain blood 17]

I went 5 weeks for the record.

's grand standing about North shouldn't be the ones that benefit from Stewart's actions over Richmond is horse shit. If Scott was so adamant about it then why didn't he take Stewart off the ground and not put him back on for the rest of the game?

Lying prick

He didn’t? Surely he didn’t? They’ll beat North regardless of whether or not they have Tom Stewart, what an arseh*le!

 

[BillHickman]

To paraphrase this thread, nothing short of trial by fire, crucifixion then hung drawn and quartered will suffice.

 

[mellowyellow]

Is the tribunal hearing on tonight ? Crickets over at AFL.com.au

 

[Mr Stokes]

We need Jacob Townsend back

Bring back Daniel Jackson

 

[biaseddustyfan]

Reckon he will get 3 and AFL will appeal for maximum theatre and extra night of tribunal drama

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

There were plenty of opportunities earlier in the game to get him and nothing happened. You sound ridiculous

You sound like you condone the dog act.
Cats board that way>>>>
Enjoy the pats on the back.
