Damn it. Not good
We ain't playing the tigers this week

What Gallen did in Origin 1 was an act of a coward with no sense of responsibility or leadership. I've been a fan of this guy for a while now, but last night his true colours came out. There are kids out there who will believe it is ok do punch people in their game this weekend.
If Russell Packer gets fined 15k for a little piddle in his pants, then i'd suggest Gallen should be fined 150k and suspended for 10 weeks. Enough is enough. When will the authorities take a stand on this sort of thuggish behavior? It's time someone was made an example of.
Past series? Could be wrong but I thought he just pointed out that Myles had been twisting his knee in tackles?
Don't boxers keep both hands up for both defence and attack? Only saw one pair of hands in the air in that incident.:roll:
So, just to clarify, as you think Gallen's actions were worth a week if someone does the exact same thing this weekend you'll say the same thing?
Exactly. If Gallen got sent off, the biff would be safe as he would have been suitable punished for his indiscretion. But I wonder if the refs, having missed their chance at the time and given the inevitable backlash - will be looking to stamp out any chance of this happening again.
While it may please rusted on NSW supporters, parents of kids playing League, sponsors and millions of casual viewers that a showcase like Origin draws will be potentially turned away by it.
FMD, people complaining because Myles didn't have his hands up! Myles get up, pushes Gallen, they square off, did you want Gallen to actually say 'Yo, Nate, I'm about to punch you in your face' before hitting him? It's a footy fight, you clown!
Also having a big LOL at the Courier Mail, sounds like some of the princesses on here!
it would be a noble gesture imo
I loved it. I loved when Geordie put a few on Ben Ross, I loves Kevin tamati and Greg dowling going at it in the tunnel, I loved Ian Roberts punching ten shades out of Garry jack.
I loved Brett white putting one on Ben Ross, I loved Jamie Goddard putting a million on joey johns.
Did you agree with the ruling Big Pete?
With shrugging it off he was giving a green light to QLD to fire back with no threat of a send off, surprisingly they chose not too.
Bad place for the ref to put himself.
I must admit I was disappointed fat head didn't hit the dirt and that Russell Packer wasn't there to relieve himself on his head.
But I guess you can't have everything and justice isn't always fair
Went to school with a bloke who while playing aussie rules knocked a bloke out cold then got on his knees and spat into the unconscious dudes mouth.
Needless to say he got in heaps of shyte.
I am a Shark's and Gallen fan,but I thought his effort was p*ss weak,and not a good look.That thing went out in 1985.
The ARLC needs to grow some,and lay down the law for the next two SOO.Instigator of punchup sent off,particiapant 10 minutes .Impose heavy fines if necessary.
NSW was all over Qld,Gallen was making good yardage,the punch to the face was crap and unnecessary,especially given all the publcity to street incidents of late.
We are trying to grow the game at grassroots,and this is how you sell it?:crazy::crazy:
