Interesting how feedback from eye witnesses are very different to newspaper reports

Should we start taking bets as to which player it will be?

I was thinking the same thing..

My money is on Corey Horsborough.. Know nothing of his background or track form for indiscretions.. But I'm sure he's still got some pent-up aggression after that injury last year when he almost burst into tears.. which journo's decribed as "passion"..

The injury he hobbled off with ended his season. Id say that was likely the reason for his over emotional state. He's not the first, nor will he be the last athlete to react that way to a serious injury

I'm sure plenty of tears are shed in the dressing rooms by players who suffer season ending injuries.

We just don't see them.

They are indeed. I remember Benji Marshall in pieces after he did his shoulder for the umpteenth time. Was the stark example I recall.

I don’t think anything worse of people if they do - but found the commentary / journos description of “passion” as just odd. Frustrated. Devastated, gutted maybe.. but passion??

Anyway let’s see if the third eventuates...

The passion was in his reaction to the "intent to injure" nature of the tackle if I remember correctly.

Possibly mate, it’s interpretation of course but I felt the journo schtick about it all just didn’t stick right.

You’ve got a good ‘un though with him. Love to have aggression in my forward pack with guys like him. Reminds me of Keith Galloway - in appearance and demeanour (all gingers are the same aren’t they??).
