Surely, his position as head of the AFLPA is untenable.

So Danger insists that players look after their opposition when they know they have them at a disadvantage & have a real chance of causing harm to them?   

Really? 

Its funny how Danger knows exactly what to expect of other players, but none of that seems to apply to his good self!   
So, does this flog remember lining up Nick Vlastuin with a head high elbow when he charges into a pack with no eyes on the ball & KO's the player committed to marking the ball?  And during the opening minutes of a grand final, no less.  Somehow, I don't think Vlaus remembers it either ... 

But it all turned out well - Danger was completely unharmed after the incident (had a pretty sore elbow for a few minutes) & was later cleared by the MRP for being a good bloke, so all's well with Danger ... for those who were worried about the poor dear ...      ::)

Don't remember much if at all any public sympathy for Prestia either after he was taken out off the ball. It was more about how good a bloke deep down Stewart really was.
