Sharks captain Paul Gallen fined $10,000 for racist remarks at Micky Paea

[herbert henry1908]

Gallen getting away with this looks like the NRL is turning a blind eye (deaf ear?) to what happened.

The administration in Barry Ward's day dealt with the issue. And that is all that is expected today. Barry Ward apologised and paid the price. Move on.

Any excuses about official complaints, who the complaint has to come from etc look exactly as they are - poor excuses.

exactly how are the NRL meant to proceed if they have no evidence?

no video evidence

and no evidence from Paea means he cant be charged.

really i dont see what the else the NRL could do.

If there was AV on it i'd be fully suportive of seeking a charge. But we cant just go charging people with no evidence.

Apparently Gallen said. Boy, Nigs, that tackle was Wack!

 

[Danish]

Yet, while you might not admit it, you know you would take Gallen if you got given the chance over any of your princess forwards.

Keep telling yourself that...


One day you might realise that the reason why every single fan on this site says that they would not want him at their club is because, shockingly, they dont want him at their club.

Gallen is the type of 80s dinosaur who would stiff arm his mother if it meant he could win a premiership

 

[Timmah]

bartman, don't let technicalities get in the way of a good argument :lol:

Good on ya El though, nice stir.

 

[El Diablo]

You must be bored... as I said I enjoy sinking the slipper into Timmah, but his logic and reasoning he's given about selling his Origin 2 ticket if Gallen is captain is fine. nothing to do with Ward, apples and oranges.

it's your choice to support his hypocrisy

does not worry me

So, let's get this straight. You would prefer Willie Mason over Paul Gallen?

because Mundine made an official complaint as did Dean Widders

 

[t1tan]

Enjoy talking it up guys. We all know that if Gallen was a free agent tomorrow, you would all be secretly hoping that your team would pick him up.

f**k off deadsh*t,no way.

 

[Miller was a legend]

So, let's get this straight. You would prefer Willie Mason over Paul Gallen?

f**k, thats stretching it!

 

[Timmah]

So, let's get this straight. You would prefer Willie Mason over Paul Gallen?

I'd take Eion Crossan over both.

 

[Craigshark]

I don't believe i asked you Timmah. So please feel free to STFU.

 

[Danish]

So, let's get this straight. You would prefer Willie Mason over Paul Gallen?

I would prefer ANY player in the entire competition over Gallen.


Clear enough for you?

 

[Timmah]

:lol: It's a forum... if you want to ask people and have noone else's input, use the PM function. Otherwise, suck it up.

 

[bartman]

:lol: One sole person's judgement of hyprocrisy, which has taken up however many posts to fail to make a case.

I'm kind of doing the same thing as Timmah... I won't bother watching Origin and cheering for NSW this year if they pick the racist grub (which it seems like they will, because Paea has gone back on his intentions and is being spineless).

I would have thought the fact i quoted him, meant that it was a question directed to him only. Although i don't expect you to be able to grasp that.

Crystal clear Danish. Also makes it very crystal clear that you have no idea about Rugby League at all. But it is your opinion, which you are entitled to.

 

[carcharias]

irony = a bulldogs supporter complaining about rule breakers in RL.

 

[Timmah]

If we excluded rule-breakers from every discussion we'd have no forum you goose, live in 2009, not 2002. Although... :lol:

Jjust because you disagree doesn't mean a case has not been made

we'll see when the time comes what you do

 

[bartman]

Jjust because you disagree doesn't mean a case has not been made

And it doesn't mean the case against Tmmah's logic is more than flimsy.

we'll see when the time comes what you do

I'll do what I said I'd do. I missed Origin for four years living in another country, so it's no big loss on a random Wednesday night. For all the hype it's just a game, and to be honest I've always preferred club footy.

i would say i can't believe Sharks fans are defending him. then i remembered they are Sharks fans.
