sharko said:The Titans player on the replays and in his statement after the match did grab the testicles of the Souths player (that is defined as "bag snatching"), the Titans player admits grabbing at the front of the shorts of the Souths player, no reason for him to do that other than to encourage a physical response for the Souths player.
smeghead said:And Scott Prince still can't tackle in todays game.
smeghead said:I thought so.
Kudos on not taking the bait though.
Lowe will get suspended. But I find it funny that one of the games premier cheap shot and niggle merchants in Prince starts getting involved.
BS...sooperdooper said:it wasnt a king hit yet it wasnt a one on one approach...
delaney was getting back in the defensive line with his priority to defend... then he turned and there was lowe, before he could react he was on his back!
its about a 6 to 8 weeks i think. After looking at the film many times over i cant find it clear that delaney grabbed him intentionally, there are many times in a game of league and other contact sports when this happens.
now before i get called bias due to my sig etc... im being as level headed as possible.
NGR said:BS...

madunit said:18 weeks. Mind you, I think Williams's was worse, but only slightly. I was at the game when Williams hit O'Neill, and to be fair O'Neill slammed Williams' head into the turf. Using the whole, "He touched my nuts" excuse is very very lame. Surely you have to accept and realise that in a tough physical contact sport such as rugby league that you may end up getting your jatz crackers groped a few times in your career. I saw the incident with Lowe, and honestly, there's absolutely nothing in it.
He'll get minimum 15 weeks.
Souths won't sack him, purely because his attitude is too similar to that of Rusty.
deegan said:Brett Delaney on the incident said, "I just had him by the shorts and I was hanging on, that is footy," he told The Gold Coast Bulletin.
"I was making a tackle, I wasn't going to let go. I didn't go in there trying to hang onto his balls or nothing, I just thought my hand was on his shorts.
"And the next thing I know I was waking up. You can't just go ahead and belt someone."
If there was any "bag snatching" it was not intentional, it was accidental interpreted as intentional by Lowe.
It is best summed up by our co-captain Scott Prince.
"Frog (Delaney) wouldn't have meant anything by it ... it would have been an accident," said Prince.
"We get hit around that area all the time. Obviously he (Lowe) took offence to it and he retaliated.
"At the end of the day you can't do that in today's game."
Bazal said:I can live with 4...good to see Delaney has no case to answer either, looks like old Jaiman was a little confused
bazal said:10 weeks minimum...absolute disgraceful act...and given JT is a close mate of Delaney, I hope he never sees first grade at Souths again
As you can see I was 100% correct.ink said:LOL...the back down begins.....little steps at first will soon become mighty leaps...you dont sound so sure of yourself now.
