Dirtiest act on the footy field?

Was that the one where he broke Stephen Barratt's leg?

There was also the one that ended Twiggy Caldwell's career the year before.

I suspect it might have been the right hook that busted Peter Maynard's eardrum. The ump was right there and Cornes was pointing madly at the collapsing Maynard to get the ump's attention.

I think it was the week before in the 1982 second-semi, Greg Turbill planted an elbow flush into Marty Leslie's face and broke his cheekbone. Right in front of the umpire, but he suffered momentary blindness at that moment too. Legend has it Leslie only realised his cheekbone was broken when he tried to put his mouthguard back in and it wouldn't fit.
 
Dog act.

Says plenty about the character of a bloke who king hits a player 10 goals up in the last quarter of a GF. Gutless.

If I was computer literate I'd put Schuberts King hit on Gowans 15 seconds earlier on here. The reason James only got 3 games! Says plenty about the character of a bloke who king hits a player nowhere near the ball in the last quarter of a GF, splitting his mouth open, when their teams 10 goals down. It was just lucky "Soders" caught Schuberts cowardly act on a camera that can capture actions behind the play.
If Schubert didn't cop what he dished out he would have got off scott free.
There would have been no Gowans punch if it weren't for Schuberts actions. Would you cop someone cowardly hitting you behind play ?:mad::mad:
 
Scott Salisbury kinghitting Richard Champion right in front of me during the Escort/FAI Cup Final in 1990(?), opening him up and producing more claret than Wolf Blass' bib.

But as karma would have it, the little shit went on to be a moneybags architect didn't he.

Love the reaction Salisbury gets from the Port faithful. If he'd been in prison bars, he'd be hailed as living the creed.

If he'd been in the prisonbars he might've been lucky enough to have, say, half as many premiership medals as Paul Northeast.
