Whilst it was back in May, sitting in the stand at Skilled, I couldn't believe how we let the game slip with less than 10 to go. With a bit of luck, the try at the end would have been scored, but was not to be.

If our defence moves up tonight and pushes Prince back inside, we will win. If we don't, we will be in trouble.

The Titans don't need this game as bad as we do, they are not at home and we are on a hot streak.

I am more confident about this week than the past two weeks.

Souths by 14.

What's the story with the Zillman biting allegation...
Simpson didn't make an official complaint at the time, but a couple of minutes later (once there was a break in the play) he showed the ref & touch judge where the bite marks were on his arm. The video doesn't look good for Zillman, but it wasn't anything too cannibalistic.

The intent was there. He should be suspended for the same amount of time that Brad Morrin was suspended for.

Great. Just when things start to look up for the Titans this happens, and Presto injured too apparently?

Ah well at least we got the Sharks next week at Skilled.

Character building win for the Titans. Beating in form bunnies team at their home turf when the bunnies needed the win to make the finals.

just saw the bite .. definately had a little munch .. funny thing is that right after it zillman drops the f-bomb knowing immediately he was in trouble ...

the lack of denial at the reporting was telling too ...

of course the villain in this will be Jamie Soward

We couldn't keep the pressure on them while on attack in the 2nd half which proved to be our downfall in the end.

Damn Fatty is unbearable in commentary. Reminds me why they punted him in the first place.

Well he kinda did...In the tackle he pointed to his arm and said to the touch judge "He bit me" and then when he was running back into the defensive line he yelled it out again. It was clear as anything through the TV as it happened live and I wondered why the commentators didnt say anything. They obviously had no idea until there was a stoppage in play.

:lol:

Zillman looks like he gave Simpson's arm a little french kiss. Vossy said it... looked like a wobbegong suck.
If you're really denying there was a bite, then your name really does typify what you are.

He went out of his way to turn and bite. You could see the reaction from Simpson right away. 6-8 weeks if the NRL are consistent.

The slow motion replay makes it look more bad than what it was, but it's no Morrin bite. He will have some time on the side line but it won't be 6-8 weeks.

Take your Titans glasses off. I know we are all bias sometimes, but boy oh boy. The bite lasted longer in slow motion than Morrin's did in the same situation. Just admit it, horrible bite from Zillman.

It has to be a 6-8 week suspension. It doesn't matter how bad the bite was, the intent was there and if the NRL are consistent, he'll get the same amount of time that Morrin received.
