Thomas could be set for a suspension after a bump on the Cat midfielder during the Power’s loss on Saturday night.
Selwood played no further part in the match after the hit.
“It was a gutless act,” Robbo told Sunday Sport.
“You either go for the ball or you can go for the unsuspecting opponent. He went for the unsuspecting opponent.
“To me, it’s a cheap shot.
“He’s got a history of thuggish acts.”
Former Tribunal member Daniel Harford said the incident will likely be assessed as careless conduct with high impact to the head, resulting in a two-match ban.
