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

Did you even watch the f**king game? Paea stood on Gallen's hand but it was clearly accidental. Paea was looking straight forward and Gallen put his hand on the ground to play the ball. That is never an excuse to call someone a Black merkin.[/QUO

yes i did and the first thing i thought was that gallen had his hand stomped on

and watching the match when all of this came to light there was no definite evidence of what was said or done to paea even after replaying the incident there was nothing definite as to what happened the only thing that was definite was that there was a hand stomping.......yet everybody on here wants gallen sent to siberia

as another poster said if what happened, happened why did paea go to shake gallens hand instead of walking away from him

and no i do not have cronulla glasses on, i will be putting on my maroon and white ones this arvo

It was funny just watching the replay and seeing Gallen backing away like a cat. f**k me he's soft. He's got nothing.

And for the record I wouldn't want him anywhere near our club. Our backrowers are far better.


yep he is real soft.....the very first ball after the incident he ran it up

real soft and catty

and for the record, i would love to see gallen in the maroon and white

Look at all the keyboard hero's going going off without even having ANY evidence to prove Gallen actually said anything.. Old Paea didn't look too upset at the end of the game, shaking Gallens hand and having a few laughs.
And for all you people who are saying Gallen isn't worthy of a NSW selection. I suggest you actually watch a Cronulla game. It is pretty obvious he is single handedly carrying the team by himself.

Gallen is a racist grub, mickey should have ripped the merkin's head off. His relationship with Barrett will prematurely end once the sharks fold. Lol, he so sh*t himself when Mick lashed at him.

Lets look at this with the current conditions in terms of the climate of the club and social responsibility along with all its association.

Firstly my look on Paul Gallen , a very good player who puts his heart on his sleeve, in a better team would excel, only real problem with Gallen is he is very docile , not captain material by any means. His impulse measuring against his intelligence and "controlled aggression" really factors poorly , refeerees have no time talking to this disrespectfull man.
Ricky Stuart thinks because he fires up he should control the whole team,no Ricky no , time to get smarter its not the same as your era. Times are changing biting , Testicle grabbing and grappling are being abolished for the good of the game and its goals of there marketshare.

The Sharks can ill afford another saga in there drama- marred season so they are really trying to stitch this up very quickly , but for the Sharks to say nothing happend or whine that it was actually Mickey Paea's fault is typical of there folk down there.
I cannot stand for the arrogance of Gallen when Mickey had enough class to drop it went over to make peace with Gallen and he rejected him , typical quiessntial shire bloke.Who couldve just cost his team more then 2points.

For the NRL if they dont have a look at this incident its just yet further proof that this is a very curropt organisation , utopia built.
Its a real grey area because the game is ever changing , theres no more "what happend on the field stays on the field"..

Racism in proffesional sport cannot be tolerated , but hey this is the NRL...

IMO how can Gallen remain leader of this team...numerous times to the judiciary, grubby antics in the tackle and now possibly making racist comments.

The guy is a joke and just relies on his size to handle himself...

Why shouldn't the refs go on with it if he made an initial complaint on the field. It is fairly gutless from the NRL IMHO.

Even if he would get off because Paea refused to testify at the judiciary the referees certainly could.

No, skeepe is saying that the referee badgered Paea until he dropped the complaint. Nothing to do with the "NRL" :roll:

the NRL have checked the audio and the referee was too far away and nothing can be heard

they can only charge him if Paea makes a complaint seeing they have no evidence

He made the complaint to the refs initially did he not ??

Like I said he would probably escape because of lack of evidence but there was an initial complaint made.

He went to the referees, HORNBY said Paea wanted to complain, Robinson said, do you want to make an official complaint, then Paea decided no, he wanted to leave it. Skeepe is saying Robinson earbashed him into dropping it :?

gallen is a jerk.
i wonder how his team mates who are dark skinned feel about playing with him or living in such a redneck area?

personally i wouldn't like him at my club, but pretty sure the eagles chased him a few yrs back... :sarcasm:

LOL @ Paul Gallen.

Remember after Round 3 when he was talking jive after the game saying the Dragons weren't that tough and didn't want hit it up.

Didn't hear any of that rubbish last night.

The bloke is a complete joker and his bitterness provides me joy.

I love watching him lose.

I bet they feel pretty good playing along side a player who never backs down and will always have their back.
Half the NRL lives in the shire, so they musn't mind it too much.
