Questions have been raised over why St Kilda star Rowan Marshall was allowed to remain out on the field in his side’s win over West Coast, after copping a late brutal knee to the back of the head.
The Saints big man was left sprawled on the Optus Stadium turf for a few moments before making his way to the next ruck contest.But it was there that the confusion began as both the St Kilda trainer and doctor had made their way to that side of the field and umpires stopped play. “We stop the game for a blood rule. And they’re assessing now whether there’s head trauma and he’s still out there.“I think the doctor is having a conversation with the umpire.”
Marshall was seen giving the medical staff the thumbs up and waving them away, before club officials were seen reviewing the incident on the bench.Simmo not worried about Harley tackle | 08:23Marshall wasn’t the only Saint to cop a blow to the head, with Darcy Wilson slung to the ground in aSt Kilda assistant coach Corey Enright, who fronted the post-match press conference due to Ross Lyon’s illness, said both players were fine.
