Tom Stewart is gorn 

 

Stewart in trouble I think, looked bad.

 

Multiple weeks for Stewart 


Is apparent bravery a way to now get away with obvious front on contact?  Happened numerous times against Frittata on Thursday and Tarrant just then got away with one.

Definitely a shift in interpretation...and 'amazingly' the commentators are in synch with it 🤷‍♀️

Has to be four week. Prestia out this week and next week, elbow to the head. Was knocked out on the ground by an elbow after the ball went well by. Didn’t need to do anything. If the AFL is serious you have to rub him out for twice what he cost the guy playing the ball.

Stewart deserves four weeks for that! Horrific 

No way he plays against us in 2 weeks.  I dont dislike him but that was bad.  3-4 surely

That’s exactly what should happen but the sceptic in me says he’ll get one week - just enough time to freshen up before we play them the following week….

Agree. He’s a great, and usually fair, player - but that was everything we’ve been told the AFL wants to get out of the game.

Thought it was a shoulder. Will have a look again, but agree it is multiple weeks, as far worse than the Chandler tackle of a player with the ball, who got 2 as a result of concussion.

You’re right. Just saw it and it was a shoulder braced to hit him flush in the head. It’s really, really bad.

Replay was just on @Redleg.. i didn't see it...but blimey... some would call it an 'average act' as Garry just called it...others would call it something else.

Just saw it. He’ll get 3-4 reduced to 2 I think. No way gets just 1 week for that, it’s actually the perfect example of what the AFL don’t want to see when you elect to bump. 


The fox footy boys going after how poor it looked and there’s nothing Stewart can do but fall on his sword.

Trial by media done. Minimum 3 weeks.

Agreed, should have been a free against Lyons when he was injured the other night.

 

Stewart out vs. us would be HUGE!

And Stewart IN and us still belting them, would be even bigger.

Let's not kid ourselves here, he will be IN against us, it's precisely how the AFL works, pure agenda driven tripe.

He won't be coz he will get 1 week so he can play against us. And who do they play next week ?

My outrage about this has nothing to do with our draw. I’m outraged! We all should be outraged! It’s outrageous!

The agenda actually demands weeks, to show they are serious in wanting to avoid head knocks.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
