We don't want Nick Maxwell's who only pick on kids.

Haven't seen the footage, was it a punch to the stomach?

VERY disappointing.

From the footage on the channel 10 news, I wonder if Freo 'dobbed' him in. Certainly didn't look like network footage. If so, I hope we return the favour when the time comes around.

Looked to me like the kind of 'pushing off' that goes on in midfield contests 50 times a game. If Stevens gets a week for that, I've got to wonder if the likes of Josh Carr will ever get to play again!

Looked like a push to me...I've seen the GD do this to the GA in netball many times...where oh where is our game heading when you can't do this at a stoppage? Free kick at best...

The footage I saw showed Stevo giving him a short sharp punch to the ribs......and it was way off the ball and behind play.

Mark Harvey, you are a dead set knob. Perhaps you should have reacted to this "ploy" and got one of your own knob end p0layers to do the same. You Sir, are an absolute goose...

Stevens should model himself on Judd, in more ways than one.

Very disappointing from a so-called (experienced) leader.

You dont know what happened before the incident.

These things happen.

VB didn't Juddy punch Campbell Brown in the Crown Jewels only for Brown to lie to the tribunal about where he actually hit him and he got off?

After seeing the 'footage' on Ch 10 News here, looked more like an open hand push off to me.

I must admit, after reading some of the earlier comments in this thread, I was expecting much worse.

With the footage being quite blurry and imho inconclusive as to whether it was a punch, I reckon we may challenge.

Has Steve Benson's tick of approval.

I swear, if I didn't love this footy club as much as I do I wouldn't watch another minute of AFL. If that warrants a week suspension then AD and his lapdog have done more damage to this game than we all think

How the direction on our code can be left in the hands of some irrelevant, incompetent privilidged few is baffling!

Hopefully Stevo will still be match fit by the time round 3 comes around.
Very disappointing as the first few rounds are crucial for us.

Wow.. A free kick, yeah ok.. but a report??

That is soft, and I am tryin to be unbiased. Looked like an open hand, and a frustrated jabby push with the palm. Either way should not be reportable. I won't be surprised if he gets off this, although maybe the club won't want to risk losing him for round 3
