- If you had any clue whatsoever, you would realise that the Tigers NEVER get referrees favours. We are constantly ripped off. If you would like me to outline some instances from this season, let me know. There is a long list.
Thats right Inbreed Tiger the whole world is against your Tigers. The ref never gives them a fair go. :roll: The typical whinge I am used to hearing from you.
As I said before, HE (Williams) deserves a major suspension to be handed down as it was a cheap shot.
O'Neill's high, stiff, swinging arm deserves 5 weeks IMO. The ref should have stepped in and placed O'Neill on report and given a penilty to the Storm. If the ref had not shown the Tigers BIAS, then Williams would have gone about his game and not taken to another thug as he did.
Mark Rudd said:Tallis had hold of ross's jumper.... Im sure ben didnt think Gordie wanted a kiss, at least he saw it coming.
Slaters Tackle?....well the word here is "Tackle"
Neither of them were king hit from behind without knowing by a cheap slug!
Ross was trying to leave the ruck and Tallis grabbed then threw a dozen before Ross realized. boy, it sure looked like he knew it was coming eh. With his back AND head turned looking at the ref.
Slater was lifted past horizontal. No penalty.
Slater's two tacklers BOTH dropped forearms into his head. Pure undulterated CHEAP SHOTS. No penalty. Yeah. I'm REAL sure Slater saw THAT coming when he ran up. So it's ok eh?
Both instances the innocent was hit by 'a cheap slug' as you call it. Same thing. Yet not a big deal by the Australian Captian.
In fact, something FAR worse in the Origin and nothing said. Could've smashed Billy's face to bits.
And as far as the grapple tackle, perhaps Storm invented it. Yet after all the fuss, guess who used it quite a lot? The Blues coached by whinning Gus.
Danny will pay. While others get away with murder.
Yeah. It's all very fair aint it.

Hate?
I have enjoyed several Tigers games this year laddie.
The 2 weeks, where 106 point were scored V the BIG ZERO to the Tigers were outstanding.
At least I dont go slagging off at people calling them F%$k witts, etc
Did Tallis, or the boys who made the tackle on Slater, knock either of those two players? Did they knock out either of those two players so badly they needed oxygen and a trip to the hospital?
What you don't realise is that what Williams done was not only illegal but very stupid.

If you need two weeks to gather evidence about something that took 20 seconds, then geez? I don't cop that "being dazed" should be an excuse anyway, it's a bad precedent/lopphole that everyone will then use.
Do the crime, serve the time Danny.

I heard that it was the prosecutor who needed the 2 weeks to get more information not Williams' defence team.
Williams team was ready to go. As a result because the prosecution wasn't ready Williams has to serve 2 weeks anyway. This upset the Williams defence team. I think they thought he should be allowed to play until the case is heard.
Whilst I believe Williams is as guilty as hell isnt it "innocent until proven guilty"?

I don't agree - his defence picked up on Gibbs' ridiculous comments and ran with it - how could the league have expected such a stupid defence. Personally, I think they should have thrown it out (along with him), but they have decided to try and take it seriously

I think they should have got on with it and thrown it out too.
Its the League's prosecutor who should be prepared for all sorts of defences though.
They are the one's issuing the charges.
I heard on Sunday morning that Williams said he couldnt remember what happened. Surely they could work out what his defence was going to be.
Rid the game of Danny Williams
