Pathetic, does that make you feel a bigger man now!

Obviously. So big that I apparently can't distinguish a jokey, throw-away insult from something a little more meaningful any more. Which obviously helps when trying to avoid the more pressing issues.

no we wouldn't have.

Really? Don't believe you.

I have yet to see a 12 page thread criticising an FC player for giving an opposition player a bit of what for in a tackle. There is a 20 odd page one somewhere about what our south sea islanders should be doing to gob shiites who play for the opposition though

Do you mean stuck one on having been attacked around the head whilst prone on the floor or do you mean stuck on one as in a cowardly unprovoked attack?

If it is the former I [iwould[/i defend the player as he has every right to defend himself. If it is the latter then no, I wouldnt and I think a large majority would condemn him for it as well as it is unacceptable.

I mean stuck one on him in any way, shape or form. Most would be slapping him on the back for it although they'll deny they would

ok I'll re fraise it.

I wouldn't have.

i wouldnt. I applaud tough play be it by us, KR or any side and I know because of the nature of the game there is a fine line at times but i dont agree with willingly crossing that line and despite your protestations I still like to beleive the majority wouldnt either.

No we wouldn't.

Not the cheap shots Cockayne and Newton tried.

I'm all for tough hard rugby league but they wen't beyond that.

We all know what Cockayne is like. Even the most biased Dobbins struggle to argue his case.

Anyone also notice Murrell's elbow tackle on Horney right at the end?

Clearly attacked his head with his elbow the penultimate tackle from the end of the match.

Murrell stood and smirked at Horney at the ptb too, he knew exactly what he had done and got away with.

It's rephrase

You may not be the world's best speller, however you are indeed a righteous man

Must be all that VB you're drinking down under

Haven't seen too many complaining about Fitz charging over and barging newton over after said incident. Only staffs fc seems to have taken offence at it

I love your "holier than thou" attitude though, very refreshing at easter time

As some will see it as retribution for a blatant piece of foul play by a "hard man" on a full back with his back turned. Just a thought?.

Don't confuse my attitude. It is called decency. Try it. You may find yourself re-born, as you yourself pointed out it is Easter Time.

Aye...Pipkin didnt mention that did he.....cheap shot or what.

The one that doesnt get mentioned much is Vella 5th man in v Lauaki in the 2nd half. Ive mentioned it before but that appeared to be a serious attack to the head that could have broken Lauaki's neck.

Nothing came of the O'Meley thing last week so whats the relevance........Murrell should be done for a total cheap shot on Horne with his elbow at the end.

You have a team of cheap shot merchants who cant take it when teams retaliate....Derby at yours last season...Cordoba sticks one on Fozzard and your pack cant be found..Newton hiding again,Hornes testimonial...Newton wipes out Lynne then goes hiding as Washbrook and co go hunting him.....Derby at yours..Webster runs away from Fitz then Fitz and Berrigan go after Newton and he runs away again......

I noticed that at the time........just shows how "hard" rovers pack was with cheap shots...if they had played rugby they would have beaten us.....dont think a lot of this will be forgotton when we play them at KC...Hope there is some good biff.

Congratulations on 13 pages of hilarity! You would think most of you had not seen a game of RL before. What's up not as tough as you thought you were?

This thread is embarrassing!

embarrising? you would know after seeing your teams tactics on good friday

Struggling to defend your team's tactics are we?

Not about how tough people are though is it, it is a family game, the gesture was on television for all to see, great PR for your club eh

mind you it just about sums it all up at your place.

You know, you remind me of the posters on the royston vasey forum who are up in arms over lauaki's treatment of poor clint and the badly done to ben.

They're talking out of their asses too

Got to agree. Hame will get the pish ripped out of him at training this week over this load of bollox

Got to disagree with that. All Hame did wrong was react to illegal blows to his head first by Cockaynes elbow then a good working over by Newton (who Hame had knocked over on initial contact) which resulted in a cut above the eye. After both events all Hame could be accused of is looking after himself on the back of illegal play.

Amazing comments Galea about how the ref let us get away with constantly niggling and fouling!!

I hope he was speaking tongue in cheek!
