Collingwood star Beau McCreery has been slammed online over an awkward moment in front of millions at the AFL Grand Final presentation.
for his treatment of a young Auskicker during the final medal presentation at the MCG.
It has become a cherished tradition for the 23 Auskicker of the Year nominations to present the premiership medals to the victorious players at the season finale, but Stewart absolutely botched the exchange after Geelong’s 81-point victory over the Sydney Swans. After a young girl draped the medal around Stewart’s neck, the four-time All-Australian ignored her handshake offer and triumphantly raised his arms in the air.
To make matters worse, the 29-year-old accidentally knocked the young girl’s hat off her head before hustling off the podium.Speaking on Channel 9’s Sports Sunday the following morning, Stewart apologised for his mistake and declared that he’d like to give the Auskicker a gift. “I just want to reach out to the young girl who gave me my premiership medal yesterday,” he said on Sunday morning.More related stories
