gotta say i disagree with you. That was pure cowardice. If he had a problem he should have initiated a fight. Hitting him with a underhand elbow in play was really bad. He basically admitted he was a soft lad there. Afraid to remonstrate with a young morely, hardest player? More like softest player. Next!

I once spoke to Dave Furner and Craig Smith and they both said the same.

Im sure Brett Hodgson would also back that up

I have just watched it and admit my memory must have been blurred by the mists of time.
But I am sticking with what I said about it being cowardly.

Who?

Quite a few who I would call have been mentioned but for me I was always inspired by Shaun Edwards attitude in the 90 challenge cup final! To play with a broken cheekbone and fractured eye socket takes some heart!
Funnily after a late shot from a wire player!!!

i remember him removing bradley clyde's head

Maybe tallis and Tez conner should get it on again to raise money for the flood victims in Brisbane !

There's one other player who was rock solid mark broadhurst from hull kr , if memory serves me right there's a video on you tube where he hits a player once and cleans him out

If you have just watched it did you also see the cowardly stamp on the back of Morleys leg, a couple of tackles previously.

Good to see Kelvin Skerett got a mension... the guys a nutcase www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUMgwZLFUgw

hopefully will be putting lima into the topic of conversation soon

Bill Ashurst must get a mention

Quite a few 'hard men' on the 1962 Lions tour !!!!!!!!!!

1983. Rovers v Queensland.

Another with a bit of a reputation Timmy Street.

Give over

My grandad took me to watch widnes v wigan when i was a youngster.... i remember Emosi Koloto absolutely cleaning Kelvin Skerett right out... took them about 10 mins to scrape him up off the floor.

so Emosi Koloto.

but not in a ruck, otherwise you could use the example of cassidy and morley

Hard, not psychotic!

has to be Prescott after the broken arm, still taking drives in with it.

Timmy Street did have a reputation as a hard man, i know it was in the lower leagues and not Super League but he did none the less.

My mate at 17 leathered him when he was in the Widnes academy, Dave Whittle and Tony Coterill were/are harder

Everyone get beat at some time Pieman, i agree about Dave Whittle and Tony Cotterill being hard.

But he was 17 and Timmy was in his prime...to be fair he was nails

well it wasnt really a ruck.....there had been some previous from a game at central park .. koloto went late into the tackle on skerret, who wasnt very happy.... they squared up and Koloto just gave him a big swinging right hand and it was all over.

cassidy threw an elbow into Morleys head like a coward as he ran straight at him.

so absolutely nothing like the example whatsoever.

Also stemming from previous from when Morley had crocked McCormack illegally.
