I can't recall who it was, but it was a collingwood player who was holding onto warnock in a push and shove, laughing in his face.
Warnock tried to break the hold by whacking away the pies player hand and he simply couldn't do it. He was thumping his fist into his opponents hand/arm trying to make him let go and he was simply getting laughed at......and rightly so IMO, it was pathetic.
Not saying his tapwork wasn't underrated, but he was lacking in other areas. Pittonet for all his limitations is what you want from a big guy. Loves a push and shove, love throwing his weight around, and does so with a smile on his face. TDK is probably somewhere in the middle, leaning towards the warnock side a touch.
You want your big men to be enforcers and to stand up for their teammates, not embarrass them.
