The effectiveness of Port Adelaide ’s tag on star defender Tom Stewart last Friday night has sparked concern for the five-time All- Australia n, with experts predicting further unwanted attention will come his way.
Speaking on Fox Footy’s First Crack, St Kilda great Leigh Montagna broke down Stewart’s response to the tag after multiple encounters with McEntee. “Just have a look at what he does - he’s twisting, he’s bending him, he’s just delaying him getting to that contest time and time again,” King said.“When they moved him to the wing, there was a concession that ‘you’ve got us, you’ve actually had a win with this tactic’ - he got frustrated, he gave away 50’s.”
“To me, I look at this and I say ‘good luck with this going forward Tom, this is going to happen every week,” - because it has an impact on him personally, and a massive impact on them as a team,” King exclaimed. It is also no secret the former Sturt player is rated highly internally, with senior coach Ken Hinkley and forward coach Chad Cornes regularly defending the selfless role he plays.
