Trent Waterhouse dog shot from behind?? I assume you mean when White won the one on one with Steve Price and Trent Waterhouse got sent off for F-all? Or are you referring to another incident?

Waterhouse did unfairly get accused of being the one to knock out Price, but why do people magically forget that he was still charging in to put a dirty blindside shot on a bloke not even looking?

It's absolutely worse than Danny Williams.

Bird had no chance to do anything to defend himself and was already out cold. He's a merkin, but no one deserves shit like that. One of the most cowardly things anyone could do on the field. Acton should be run out of the game forever.
a little shake dont hurt anyone

Crash tackling someone from behind whilst they go toe to toe with someone is a probably the one of the lowest acts in League history. Just cowardly scum.

Justin Poore, whatever happened to that thug??

Justin Poore retired after stint in Superleague from injuries, it's largely why his formed dropped off after he left St George.

The other thing is Poore has privately said that he picked up Steve Price up on the collar not realizing he was knocked out cold and when he noticed he was convulsing panicked and let go. It was stupid thing he did- but to his credit he rang Price and apologized for the incident.

Jamie Action picked up Bird from the collar and taunted him lying defenceless on the ground and planted him back down on the ground with force.

You are deadset kidding.

Danny Williams punched mark oneill with full force in the head when he wasn't looking. Could've killed him. Got 18 weeks.

This merkin picked bird up and unceremoniously dropped him with a bit extra. Damage was already done. He will get about half the suspension

Which is exactly what Thirdman Thaiday did 5 minutes later on Watmong after the up and under. But QlDers thought that was tough.

I've never liked or respected Greg Bird, but what this player (Jamie Action) did to him is not called for either. Reports are Action is going to face a long time on the sidelines.

Not much in it. But if there was it would only be karma squaring up with Bird.

Lol. Thaiday runs into a scuffle and this site nearly crashes. Waterhouse does it and somehow it's "sweet F-all"?

Precisely - Bird was already knocked out and this piece of shit decided to act tough and potentially injure him further.

Punching someone when they're not looking is disgusting. Roughing someone up who is UNCONSCIOUS is despicable.

You have a very interesting view on what happened during that incident.

Ben Flower with the grubbiest act in Rugby League history

Without a doubt the worst thing I have seen on a football field.

Even worse than a classy knee jerk from Greg Bird on future immortal Shane Marteene:

Scuffle?? Wotmong was about 30m from the ball, as he watched it sail towards the fullback. Third man then smashes him from behind. No scuffle, no warning, totally un protected. Massive dog act, and 10 times worse than Waterhouse running into a fight with a dozen players milling around.

Not only that. Waterhouse just had terrible timing and came in as Price had been knocked out. It made it look like he was responsible when he did what playees from both teams do in every fight. Run in and grab the opposition. Usually just to pull them away from the teamnate.

If Price wasnt knocked out by White. That whole situation looks very different.

Except Price was still throwing them when he was blind sided.

A supreme dog shot
