Lynchy could have used him as a knee bag. But as undisciplined as our players get touted as, we did the right thing.
There's a time and place. That's 2 times in 3 years they have left us 1 short in a game.
It was time for some diffo.
The captain or Pickett shouldve made him get carried off today.
I lost count how many times Stewart stood unmarked. It got me soooo angry..

Not one Richmond player remonstrated with Stewart....Weak as *smile*!
we showed more passion when Cripps pushed Prestia in the chest.

And then for the rest of the game we let him play loose across the backline racking up cheap kicks.
Excalty shouldve been 10 onto him.
He shouldn't been watching over his shoulder all night but he was left alone.
Noone went near him.
Edwards got me angry, twice he had the chance to tackle him bit he ballerina around him and missed him.
Edwards let the club down today.
Nakas should be ashamed. Nakas had given away free kicks away all year and the time to grab That Dog and sling him into the fence he did Jack shitt.

But then we would get worse MRO punishment. If we could do it.legally then yep all for it.

I thought that guy would be Lynch.

He stands under high balls.
Hanbball to him and then smash him in a tackle.
Not sure you watched the game. That was the easiest game that Dog will play.
He sat back, noone went near him and he marked everything that came to him.
It was a gutless effort from 21 players that saw a 3 time premiership team mate get taken out by that dog.
Pickett shouldve went to him and every time he got he wouldve been smashed.

Edwards played like a Geelong player today. The only time he side step was to get out of the way. He had been hopless this year.
He went to The Dog but Atkins got in-between. Push Atkins out the way and go and man up the Dog that took the most intercepts.
Hoe about when Clarke let The Dog run virtually to the 50 from a kick in.
It was not a day real Richmond people be happy.
I'm furious. 2 players have been kod and we have sat down and done Jack shhit.

Red card.
Salty not a fan of the red card. Says it is too much of a penalty to the team if an umpire gets it wrong.

Obviously it is okay if his player knocks out the opposition's best midfielder and Salty benefits.

Bravo Salty. Quite the statesman.

Nice work Stewart.

Just went from an admired, respected player to an absolute dog in 4 seconds.

He'll never play against us again.

I think it was one of those ones that is so out of the ordinary that no-one really knew how to react.

There's obviously a lot of emotion in it right now, but I think it was really just a split second of Stewart losing focus and making a horrible mistake with horrible consequences.

I think the players non reaction was almost understanding that there's almost no malice in that, it's just a complete blank from the player involved.
So you can have a little bit of malice and knock a players head off?

I think there was no remonstration because the play was past before the hit.

If the other player can’t stand up without help it’s a pretty straight forward decision that’s difficult to get wrong.

Like this evening for example.

Yep, Richmond fans won’t forget this one. He’ll be booed until he hangs up the boots.

Chris Scott giving a 5 minute character defence of Tom Stewart in his presser.
Not deliberate he says??:mad:
:mad::mad::mad:
Absolute prick. Hiding the bs. If Stewart's a 'fair' player, why do this off the ball??? If it was an accident,OK. It wasn't!!
