Remember when J Reynolds threw the kicking tee at A Reynolds when he was being carried off the field.

That's all you need to know about his character.

Dead shit should be the one facing 6-8, Bird's tackle was stupid but he didn't go around deliberately trying to hurt people.


Agree re Reynolds. Bird was suspended 3 times last year for dangerous lifting tackles, he might not be trying to hurt people but its only a matter of time before he does.

Just saw the replay of Reynolds' trip.

Even though he hardly connected, so much intent (& stupidity), got off extremely lightly.

I think it's a stretch to say it was 'all Hayne'

Certainly was the difference, but let's not forget the tremendous defensive effort it took from the whole team. I felt exhausted watching them in Game I.

I thought Hodkinson was okay. Obviously doesn't have much talent, but he was solid & just did his job. Reynolds..... we won in spite of him.

Hodkinson had been planning that dummy since 2001

you just know he'll do it again, he's nothing but a grub with no talent

sadly, that's what got him into origin was his mongrel attitude

I'm amazed that people on here are saying that Reynolds should have received a lengthy ban... His ATTEMPTED trip didn't appear to even connect with the opposition player. If someone charges out of the line and does a big swinging arm at a players neck/head and has an air swing, should that player receive a long ban compared to a player that actually hits a guy high with less intent but it actually breaks the players jaw?

Maybe because he's done it before? Tripping is grubby shit. It's like a gateway drug to swinging arms.

Tripping in soccer is an instant send off because of the potential to injure.

We don't seem to care about it much anymore.

Once upon a time we treated it the same as soccer though.

I remember when Brett Morris was laying in agony on the ground and he dove into him as hard as he could with his full body weight.

That incident summed up dog Hodges completely. B. Moz down busted, even put up his arm to show him and the piece of shit hit him anyway.

He definitely connected IMO. You can see the impact "ripple" Sims' leg muscles. (Or I'm seeing things, has happened before).

Stop making excuses for this Neanderthal...his 'brain snaps' aren't one-offs. He's a thug & has shown it for how long? But still some think he has something - talent, yes, passion, yes...idea, no, smarts, no - in spite of what some people think that is. The guy is DUMB.

Had to laugh watching Matty Johns Big Weekend.

Had footage of Reynolds tripping a cyclist, a golfing fan, motor cyclist...even Julia Gillard.
