How can 17 other team mates sit there not at least go up to Stewart and rag doll the dog
What's Nakas problem? He gives away free kicks every week for stupid shiytt, why not grab him and slap him around.
Really embarrassing to watch it again and not 1 team mate goes up to him.
Bring back Andy Goodwin, Greg Stafford and Scotty Turner, Stewart would be collecting his teeth off the fence.

I really think they just didn’t pick up on it - blokes just don’t get picked off like that any more. Prestia reached high and was effectively leaning backwards, ball was tapped away, players in a heated game then follow the ball. A minute later they know something has happened to Dion but if haven’t seen it?? And meanwhile game is going on and we are getting pantsed…
I am sure message at quarter time would have been ‘best thing we can do for Dion is win the game, put all your energy into that..’. Unfortunately it didn’t happen.
The anger on here is palpable- how do you think they are feeling in-house at Tigerland??

Utter bulldust. That was football 1970s style. Now it's the retaliator who gets reported and rubbed out for weeks.

These days it is best to leave it to the *smile* up MRP to address it.

The trouble is the MRP have their own crooked agenda just like downgrading the hit from intentional to careless so saving Stewart a further week off

If our players had decided on retribution, doubt we would have worked ourselves back into the game. Maybe Dimma said at half time, save it for next game.

Zips is right. Our guys should have stood up for Dion at that moment and made stewart earn every seagull cheap possession he got. Instead we let him waltz around taking easy marks at will. Disappointing response from the players.

Bingo.
He cruised around without anyone going near him.
When he stood under the high ball city end goals, i was expecting knees and boots to the head but nothing

Ball was live, yes that's correct no free. I'm sure Tigers would have batted for Prestia if the game was stopped.

We can't do anything with this communist league keeping a Big Brother eye on us and having to fork out cash for their slush funds.

We are a professional football outfit. This isn’t suburban football. We were 5 goals down. We had a football game to win. Going after Stewart would have been a waste of energy and time.
