Ben Flower send off

[Wizardman]

Check out his chargedown on Youtube. Has to be seen to be believed. He'd get six weeks for that here. He charged down the kicker with his elbow fully cocked.

Isn't Ben Flower that dirty f*cker who knocked another player out with a punch and then attacked him on the ground?

 

[East Coast Tiger]

I get the impression he's not the sharpest needle in the Cronulla gym.

Exactly the same merkin. Lanch Hohia was his victim last time.

You didnt think to post the link with the thread ?

Ironically I watched it yesterday after seeing Lance Hohaia on Linkedin...Real Estate Agent in Grand Rapids Michigan now..lol

 

[Big Salad]

He'd get six weeks for that here.

And yet still wouldn't be sent off here.

 

[Paullyboy]

Hey hey lance is making friends with the American pie cast, good on him.

Back on topic though, flower is just like FPN or Packer - belongs in jail, why wait, just put them in now so someone doesn't get killed.

seen worse

Lance Hohaia actually got in some strife earlier this year suggesting after his head knock St Helens didn't give him enough time to recover from the injury and did not support him. St Helens strenuously rebuked the claim and threaten legal action from the comments.

And yet still wouldn't be sent off here.

He'd also take it to the judiciary and get it downgraded and miss no games

Yup... it's Paul Gallen like behaviour except Flower actually knocked the bloke out.

[Last Week]

I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt that he raised his arms to protect his face from the ball potentially hitting his face.

Send off, 2 weeks.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Most shocking part of the video was the guy on the bench getting a head job.

'Elbow' wasn't that bad...he's a filthy f**ker but he's more so just carelessly kinda half gone to charge down then half braced to avoid impact. Or braced to give the other guy more impact, I guess.

10 weeks if it was Charlie Gubb, none if it was Cam Smith on the eve of finals.

 

[East Coast Tiger]

Nothing wrong with it. His arm was clearly away from his body.


If it was NRL it would be grade 7 being a naughty boy charge with loading for a similar offence from the MRC with 15 weeks for a guilty plea and a millenium if he fights it and loses. Then not guilty at the judiciary.

 

[taipan]

Flower by name ,f*ckwit by persona.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Yeah not that bad looking at it. Week or two at worst for mine.

 

[myrrh ken]

The old pommy elbow. The best one I've seen is this one. 1:10 in


The best bit is the commentary. No outrage at all.

 

[roughyedspud]

shall we ask terry lamb how to throw a elbow?
