Ta'ai on McManus

[_addict]

It wasn't all that smart, but my defence would be the following:

A guy with a poor record gets one week for kicking a bloke in the head, then gets off completely on appeal. Why does a guy with a clean record (as far as I know) deserve anything at all for a sloppy high arm?

'cos of where he comes from? I guess we shall see.

Because of who he is. We all know if it was pre-Test Kiwi player, he'd get 2-3 weeks.

Ha. Maybe Meth should have included a poll asking how many weeks, or what penalty Ta'ai will get lumbered with.

Mate you MUST be thinking of a totally different tackle going on that comment - what we are talking about has nothing to do with anything high as can be seen by the other comments - the initial hit was a beautiful shot - but what happens afterwards was uncalled for.

More I poorly worded it...sloppy swinging arm to McManus' head.

 

[ozbash]

ok, we all like the big shot as a square up. But that swinging up with thick and I doubt it will go unpunished by the judiciary. 2 weeks for mine and, considering where we are in the season, Ta'ai may not be playing finals football.

Thick Thick Thick

:roll: nothing in it...

Me too! standing up for little lockey

Chris Sandow practically does that shit every week.

If you ask me, McManus had that coming; he was on the ground near Ukuma, and wearing an opposition jersey - case closed. Free Ukuma!

 

[hitman82]

Haha "it's not his go"... Well, it is. But he's still cool. PS I got stuck in snow in Wellington. FML

Kuma is the shizz!

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Standing by my original statement. Looks like he wanted to punch the ball out. Dumb, clumsy, arm definitely hit his head. Will cop a charge of some kind.

 

[hitman82]

Hah, I think he hit his head intentionally. And I don't have a problem with it.
