Geelong coach Chris Scott was held back from approaching the Brisbane Lions' huddle by his own players at quarter-time of a fiery clash between the two flag contenders.<\/p>\n
Despite his side holding a 16-point lead at the first change, Scott seemed less than pleased with a few of the Lions stars as he approached the huddle.<\/p>\n
Scott was held back by Geelong veteran Cam Guthrie as he exchanged words with Lions star Joe Daniher as Daniher was held back by teammate Harris Andrews.<\/p>\n
Scott's testy exchange with the Lions came after a fiery opening term which saw Geelong forward Gary Rohan seemingly strike reigning Brownlow Medallist Lachie Neale with a swinging right arm.<\/p>\n

The veteran Geelong coach also exchanged words with his counterpart Chris Fagan after his exchange with Daniher<\/p>\n
Neale immediately fell to the floor before raising three fingers at Rohan, seemingly to suggest that he would receive a three-week suspension for the hit.<\/p>\n
Rohan was not placed on report for the incident, but AFL MRO Michael Christian is sure to examine Rohan's strike after the match. <\/p>\n
The Rohan-Neale incident was one of a number of spotfires in the opening term, which Geelong skipper Joel Selwood also giving away a free kick for a dangerous tackle.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
