ffs - that is the toughness of SOO - you WILL get your head stuffed into the ground .... this nancy pancy sh*t they have reduced standard NRL to might now call it a "cheap shot", but its f'n nothing really ..... should be more of it if it starts a brawl :lol:

No offence, but bullsh*t. If it's a facial with the hand, fine whatever...but why should a forearm shot to the face of a prone player be any less of a cat act just because "Oh, Origin is meant to be tougher!" :roll: A cat act is still a cat act...maybe we shiuld tell Inglis to harden up, after all high tackles are part of the "toughness of SOO" :roll:

A fight is great, sure...a cheap shot is not, regardless of the stage

Watmought put a huge legal hit on Crocker. Hayne put a bellringer on Folau.

The toughness of the game hasn't died out just yet.

Watch any game and I mean ANY. The fact youre even trying to debate this is laughable and makes me question if you even watch NRL games.

You just posted a picture of his forearm on Poore's face you braindead clot. I think any opposition you had to the point went out the window at that stage.

Oh, and FYI, it's the responsibility of the maker of a claim to back that claim up. You clearly can't.

Exactly. That is toughness. Attacking the head of a tackled player is just being a cat

hard to land a good shot when the guy is holding your jersey! Poore's shot was good!

I am kinda baffled by all the posts I see along the lines of - I loved seeing Poore belt Crocker

WTF?!?!

watch it again people - Crocker was all over him - Poore was lucky to get in one last glancing blow

don't get me wrong, I was up hoping he'd nail the dirty f'n cat, but watching the replay I was disappointed that crocker go the better of the little blue ... I'm still impressed poore had a crack tho :thumn

spot on...well, i'd cheer for crocker over a scum dragons player any day, regardless of whether he's in the maroon or not.

But as for your description of the event, spot on. Crocker got a couple of good hits in, there was some wild flailing before crocker got held back by a couple of other players, then poore got a slap in.

no offence, but read what a typed - I said normal nrl is now soft as, but origin has stayed at a more tough level .... and yes - inglis is a girl who should harden the f**k up

Poore smashed him. You could see he was just waiting for the opportunity to connect with a good one. Crocker can't fight for sh*t, helicopters and what not. And it must've hurt him, he played like a busted ass from then on.

Crocker won on points? :lol: are you kidding? He landed a semi-decent punch, the first he threw, then missed with the rest. Poore got him beautifully.
