If the AFL are serious about looking after player welfare and stamping out rough play (so to speak), then missing a month for knocking someone out would be about right in my book.
Chris Scott template.
Coached by Matthews who yes was a great player but that incident with Bruns and subsequent outrage after it, there is no denying that those two ‘acts’ were pumped into the players head that if it wasn’t Stewart it would have been another Cats player.
I don’t care what they say it was Deliberate act.
How Stewart wasn’t made to earn every possession has me scratching my head.
At HT I’m sure the players would have been alerted to it.
But I guess like my coach use to say to me is ‘ play the ball’. I tell you it’s bloody hard too! How the players refrained from retaliating I admire in a sense as you would have been giving away free kicks/50’s to him.
Other hand if Cotch was playing he would have squared up if he had played…
and its not just us. They do it in many games.
Even last week with McGovern and broken ribs.
Every major game, a key player from the opp is 'taken out' accidentally by a geelong player.
This is a test case for the AFL. lets see how serious they are about proecting the head.
I think this is a 6 week suspension. Probably 4 due to a clean record.

It's 4 weeks or 5 weeks or 6 Weeks.
It bends us over our best midfielder is sitting on the bench and that fkknuckle stays on the ground.
I reckon they told Stewart when dangerflop comes back have a month off.
That's the dirtiest incident I've seen in a game since Gaff punched Bradshaw straight in the mouth
Thug.
Stewart on Prestia. Thuggish behaviour.
Dangerfield on Vlastuin. Thuggish behaviour.
Thugs.
There is no place for these players. Maybe in the 1970s but not now.
And the three umpires who did not stop the game to get the the injured player off the ground should hang their heads in shame.

No stretcher but he was fked up. He got the 10 count twice and he still didn't know his mums name.
I couldn't believe noone went to Stewart ti smash him.
Nakas should hand back the keys that was weak from the captain.
Noone went in to fly the flag.
He took 100 intercept marks not one stray knee to his fken head.
Nothing, it was like they felt sorry for the dog.
No way
What?
ODonnell was watching the ball come past him as he turned to face the ball, Turner was standing there, braced and ODonnell went straight into Turners shoulder.
Turner just waited for him to turn.
He knew he was going to take him out.
The Geelong Dog ran past the ball, aiming at Prestias head.
Unbelievable.Read this *smile*. Are they describing the same incident I saw?
Stewart facing suspension for high hit
Geelong star Tom Stewart faces a nervous wait from the Match Review Officer after his high bump knocked out Dion Prestia in the first quarter. The three-time All-Australian bumped Prestia after the Tiger had tapped the ball on with his shoulder making contact to Prestia's head. The three-time premiership hero struggled to get to his feet and was eventually subbed out with a concussion. If it's graded as intentional and high impact it will result in a three-match ban, but if the MRO deems it to be severe impact then Stewart will front the Tribunal. Jeremy Cameron may also face scrutiny after appearing to grab at the eye region of Marlion Pickett during a wrestle.
Game of the year! Cats pip Tigers in all-time epic
Geelong has defeated Richmond by three points in a instant classicwww.afl.com.au
Saying it was a bump, whilst almost suggesting accidental shoulder making contact with Prestia’s head.
No mention of him raising his elbow.
Can’t believe what I’m reading.
O'Donnell is looking at Daffy kicking the ball, when he turns around Turner is standing there and takes him out.
Nothing like the Dog today
