| Quote ="Cronus"Yes that's the one.
And I think you'll find Sironen went down like a sack of spuds, ate grass for a bit, took a very very very very very very long time getting up - with assistance - and then veeeeerrryy slowly left the pitch, arm over physio's shoulder, looking 10 years older.
If that's what you term 'Sironen still getting up', your ocker hard men mustn't be up to much.
Search for "Barrie McDermott v Paul Sironen" on YouTube if you dispute any of the above.'"
Hardly surprising when a fat one eyed pom runs into him elbow first.
Still guess thats the only way the Poms can do it.
Perhaps Jamie Peacock would have more success if he tried it once in a while

| I really don't know why anyone is praising the McDermott elbow on Sironen. It was disgusting, just about as bad as Clint Newton on Ashton Sims, and should have seen him banned for a very long time.

I don't see anyone praising it - it was indeed a disgraceful hit. Remember though, such things weren't that uncommon back in the day, though Barrie always managed to raise the bar a little.
Still, it was pretty dramatic and knocked seven bells out of Sironen and the little devil on my shoulder always smiles when an Aussie gets flattened in test matches, whatever the circumstances.

For me there can be only one answer, ladies and gentlemen, I give you Jarrod McCracken saying hello to Dean Bell.'"
Nice one nick,the McCracken hit on Bell was a belter and the Vinnie Anderson hit on Danny Tickle when Saints played Wigan in 2006(i think) is also one of the best esp when Vinnie stood over him ridiculing the poor lad.

It's been nominated in a thread entitled 'Greatest hit ever'.

That's your choice. I always think it's a little bit sad when supposed hard men have to put in cheap shots on defenceless opponents to show how hard they are. No matter who they're playing for. Sironen comes out of that 'exchange' a lot better than McDermott and laughing at Sironen for not getting up straight away (not that you did, as such, but others have) is stupid. He's lucky to have been able to walk at all after that.

| Speaking of naughty hits, Steve Matai on Billy Slater in the Anzac Test (or whatever it's called this year) is a beauty. (search for 'NRL Big Hit 2010 - Steve Matai Vs Billy Slater').
Very naughty, but again my little devil can only chuckle at a lovely and humble chap like Slater briefly visiting his ancestors.

Type in 'big hit' on the popular video clips website and look for Hull KR v Queensland 1983 if you really want to see a big tough aussie hit the deck.
Whammo!!!!

| Oh I don't doubt that for one second, I think he's one of the greatest full backs ever.
Bit smug though.

I know that one, and what makes it better is that Hull KR won the game! From what I hear Q'land had been dirty barstewards all game until Broadhurst flipped - but it raised KR's game and they went on to win.
Looks almost like a comedy punch but he was ko'd big style.

would def fit into the top 10 punches chart! The hooker had been niggling all game, the ref laughing at it was the best bit!

| No single massive hits as such but I'd like to nominate Trevor Gillmeister as having the best tackle technique, certainly in my memory. No wonder he was nicknamed 'The Axe', he just cut people in half constantly.

He's an aussie for a kick off, so the smugometer is already racing. And Billy Slater is smug, even for an aussie.

It was a superb shot.
Wolves needed to do somthing as the clock was ticking and Moz stood up and nailed HH. Fair play to Hansen though for keeping hold of the ball
