Its a rhetorical question, chaps, as we all know that they bloody well are.
And now we have Lindsay Thomas paying the price for the organisation's penchant for jumping at shadows.
Fair enough to out players when they pull a Goodesy (i.e. slide deliberately studs up, soccer style, into an opponent) as this sort of activity is invariably going to result in player injuries.
Typically, Paul 'I'm all about Sydney and nothing else, so get stuffed the lot of yas' Roos was at his haughty and nonsensical worst On the Couch last night, claiming that Thomas had to get done because his beloved Goodesy had got done the week before.
Never mind that they weren't the same incident. Thomas was doing nothing more than cutting his body across his opponent to be first to the ball, NOT sliding in legs first and studs up! Incidents like this one have happened at least 128 times per season every season, with no more than the odd injury or two occurring. It was unlucky for Rohan, but it was just one of those freak accidents that can happen at any time for any number of reasons.
But giird the loins and cue for the now obligatory 'we won't tolerate this salacious activity' edict and for Obenfuhrer Geishen to perpetrate another gratuitous rewriting of the game's history, in his own inimitable Seargent Schulz style.
Sheesh. As the Beatles famously said, boys, Let it friggin' Be, just once, FFS!
