it is in my opinion that if a player is hurt injured and is in the hands of the trainers they should be left alone. in the match between geelong st kilda jimmy bartel was hurt and in the hands of the trainers making his way of the ground when a cowardly st player tried to hit were he was injured. this is not the first time it had happen. richmond v hawthorne this year, and the most publicised was brisbane v st kilda a few years back. comments please!

The players are supposed to leave an opposition bloke alone if he's actually with the trainers, the trainer does have a right to tell players to move away if the situation warrants it. With the Riewoldt incident against Brisbane I dont recall the trainers being with him at the time.
Which quarter did this happen? I haven't seen the game and want to have a look.

Last quarter. Just to watch the elbow from Stevie J on Baker is worth it. They will both be getting a rest for a couple of weeks I think.

Baker deserved it, hand slapping wanker at best. Play footy and leave the hand holding to milne.

That was absolutely hilarious. It did work though, he made Johnson crack.

The one with Nick a few years back is a bit different to what happened with Bartel but not Johnson. St Nick and Dog stayed on the field but Bartel was trying to leave the field and as such should not have been considered 'fair game'.

Johnson was injured and was going to miss matches so he thought he might as well make it worth his while. But he'll tell the mrp that he cracked.

After seeing the Bartel incident, what a storm in a tea cup this is. Nothing in it and barely worth commenting on.

I've seen it now and agree. Nothing in it.
I got the impression the St Kilda player was concentrating on what was happening up ground when Bartel and the doc/physio crossed his path.

Called it:
In other incidents, Saint Sam Fisher was cleared of making unnecessary contact with an injured Jimmy Bartel as he left the field hyper-extending his elbow.
"From all available vision that was viewed, including vision that was not broadcast during the match telecast, the play downfield then moved at the time that Bartel moves into Fisher’s path to begin leaving the ground," the panel said in a statement.
"Fisher has his eyes on the play down the ground and steps forward and minor contact is made by Fisher to Bartel. The panel said that Fisher’s focus was play at the end of the ground and the contact was not deemed unreasonable in the circumstances."
