Ben Creagh - WTF?

[Jasdragon]

he decided to get back in the line.

What line? NSW had the ball.

 

[Godz Illa]

The offensive line. You are offside if you linger in front of the ruck

 

[Jasdragon]

I thought that after the push he was getting back to his defensive position.

Once again defensive position??? NSW had the ball.

He said in the line. I know Creagh is a Dragon favorite and pretty much our best, but with this one I call peoples saints bias, if they think he was trying to get back behind the play of the ball. He did pussy out on incident (and bet he regrets it now), I really wish he didn't, it was the only blight on his game last night, I soooooo wish he stood up to Hodges, that wanker is all talk anyway!

 

[Godz Illa]

Semantics. Back onside, back in the line

 

[God-King Dean]

If it was a player like Gallen, everyone here would be saying how much of a cat he is.

semantics, whats the jews got to do with rugby league.

It's fun to hypothesise. Gallen would never be in this situation. He'd probably have hit Hodges in the kidneys, earning his 5th penalty of the game and a send off, and a simple Thurston penalty for a comfortable 3-0 whitewash

What and been sent off, suspended??:crazy:

Not sure if it's been said or not but my initial thoughts were that once Creagh pushed Hodges, Thaiday and Slater were right behind or inline with Hodges. So Creagh looks up and see three Queenslanders ready to launch into him. Could be the reason he backed away. Just like the reason could have been that he had a brain snap in pushing Hodges and then quickly realised and backed off. I highly doubt he is a 'cat'.

Either way he won't lose any sleep. Was probably the 2nd best on ground last night and will play a lot more Origin.

 

[Godz Illa]

I doubt he regrets it at all, in fact as he trod off to the sin bin he was probably counting his blessings. Trent Waterhouse is looking at a suspension and he didn't throw a punch, if Creagh threw any he would've copped a few weeks rest.

 

[big pat]

the only thing creagh did wrong, was he didn't pick hodges up and piledrive him into the turf,hodges is a weak sh*t and wouldn't take anybody on his own. oh yeah and as far as st george bias goes, too right buddy their is only st george and nothing matters after that.

Did White or Price get suspended for throwing punches??? He wouldnt of been suspended if they went at it toe to toe.

 

[Godz Illa]

Different. Creagh ran in to join it, a la Waterhouse

Well... I knew that Jas. But thanks for confirming it for everyuone else. Last time I checked, there was a 'line' on both sides of the ruck. Looks like you're having an argument for the sake of it.

 

[OhWhenTheSaints]

The only respectable excuse I can come up with is, he didn't want to risk a suspension for Saints.

 

[watatank]

Ben Creagh was awesome last night and he's my favourite player but honestly...

If he doesn't want to fight that's fine but he shouldn't have pushed Hodges in the first place without expecting players coming for him. As it happened I was disappointed that he didn't at the very least stand his ground, even if he didn't want to throw punches.

 

[ggould]

I wouldn't be worried to much!! Anybody who knows the game know what a destructive ball runner he is and a punishing defender he is!! Benny Creagh can play the game no doubt!! And if Ben can play the way he played last night for the Dragons and score two tries like he did that will do me everyday of the week!!! Andrew Johns couldn't fight either!! Not to mention Wayne Bennett wouldn't want him fighting anyway!!!

 

[Jasdragon]

What and been sent off, suspended??:crazy:

It would prob give him time to get over that bad ankle!
