A couple of comments:
1. I read Smih's complaint first last night. I think it was on NRL.com and reported as a "punch". So in this case not the Tele's initiative.
2. I am so glad so many Forum members have pointed to what Smith was doing to Lattimore with his shoulder, arm and elbow. I only saw the one replay but that is what stood out for me.
3. We refer to "Tall Poppies' Syndrome" in Australia, the rubbishing of leading figures. But as in this case some Tall Poppies do not deserve their favourable media image. Yes Cameron Smith is a great enduring footballer but a sneaky, cheating grub at the same time, just like his little buddy Billy.
4. To me it is a complete travesty of justice that one Australian sporting captain named Smith is in disgrace for acquiescing in the breaking of the Laws of the Game while another Australian sporting captain named Smith retains his respectable image while carrying on wih unsporting behaviour week in week out.
5. Onya big Jeremy!!
