Terry Hill just as bad?

[MightySharks]

This is last time i will say it, I saw what happened I new it was bad straight away and I refuse to believe that no one could see a bloke jumping 5 feet in the air with his elbow raised, if you believe that everyone missed such an act well thats cool but I know what I witnessed.

And I can't believe I had to defend myself for yelling at Hoppa especially after it was shown on the big screen, I had every right to give it to that bum ang given the same situation I would do it again.

Terry Hill, a long-time teammate of Hopoate's at Manly and the Tigers, last night defended his friend, saying on 2GB: "It was a shoulder charge went wrong. To the do-gooders, let me tell you something: John Hopoate would not intend it to end up the way it did. He cops it left, right and centre ... but do you think he said to me, 'I'm going to c**k an elbow and get him'. ... He didn't have a brain explosion, that's not true."

Terry "over the"Hill is a fool, plain and simple. If I ever saw him on the street Id spit on the scumbag

I got 10 bucks that says if you did it, Terry Hill would knock your f**king block off... takes a tough man to talk about spitting on Hill from an internet forum :roll:

Go to a manly game and spit on him you tough man

From the first view on TV, it looked to be a legit "big hit" and Tezza Hill can be excused for thinking the same way without having the luxury of the replay. The backslapping for Hoppa was deserved initially until the replay(s) painted the true picture showing the illegal contact which was sickening to say the least.

Enjoy working for Manly council Hoppa... :roll:

 

[dreary]

How anyone could have ever thought it was a great hit is still beyond me ... even if it was a sholder charge with no cocked elbow he still launched himself LATE!! (The ball was passed well before Hoppa had even jumped.) and an offside, blindside attack. Before anyone else says he wasn't offside watch the replay he was clearly inside the 10 when the ball was played.


Well done to the rest of the Manly team to a great start to the season and a great win but anyone sticking up for Hoppa is only marginally better than he is.

 

[Broncodroid]

How anyone could have ever thought it was a great hit is still beyond me...

Well Warren Smith and Laurie Daley were of the same opinion until we saw the first replay...again, this was all forgotten once the replay painted the true picture.

 

[dreary]

I was watching on Fox and followed Hoppa everyone else followed the ball (Which was passed) the hit was LATE I will say it again LATE it should have been pulled up for that in the first place. Peachy dropped the ball because he was watching as Hopper's elbow was emplanted into Galloways ear.

CHARGED RL PLAYER REMAINS IN TOUR SQUAD

An Australian rugby league player charged with the assault of two men outside an eastern suburbs hotel on Saturday will keep his place in the Kangaroo touring squad which leaves for Britain today.

Terry Hill, 22, a Manly first grade centre, was charged with two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm at Paddington police station yesterday

The Australian Rugby League (ARL) executive chairman, Mr Ken Arthurson, admitted last night that he sought legal advice before deciding to allow Hill to leave on the Kangaroo tour of Britain and France.

The ARL decided that Hill would be allowed to join the squad to tour Great Britain and France, but not before lengthy discussions took place.

"I thought long and hard about whether to pull Terry out of the tour," Mr Arthurson said.

"I spoke with a lot of people, spoke to the (ARL) board, and have taken legal advice on the matter.

"I don't suppose it would look too good if we did pull him out of the tour, and subsequently he was cleared when the hearing came up in late December.

"We must treat Terry as any other Australian citizen, in that he is entitled to be innocent until proven otherwise.

"I did speak to Terry Hill today and he vigorously denied it.

"He was greatly upset and disturbed about the matter.

"So the entire squad is on their toes."

The charges against Hill relate to the alleged assault of an ABC radio producer, Mr Tony Twiss, and his friend near the Woollahra Hotel about 10 pm on Saturday.

The ARL chief executive, Mr John Quayle, said yesterday that Hill had denied the allegation to the League and police, and had made it quite clear he would vigorously defend the charges.

"As an Australian citizen, and under our law, Mr Hill is entitled to the presumption of innocence," Mr Quayle said.

"He is innocent until proven otherwise and will be leaving with the Australian team tomorrow."

A police spokeswoman said Hill arrived at Paddington police station with a solicitor early yesterday where he was formally charged.

The spokeswoman said Hill denied he had done anything wrong.

He had declined to be interviewed by detectives.

Outside the station, his solicitor, Mr Colin Love, said Hill would be"vigorously defending these allegations".

"He doesn't believe in trial by media," Mr Love said.

Hill was granted unconditional bail to appear at Waverley Local Court on December 21.

 

[eelsta]

can someone tell me if hill patted hoppa on the back after or before his dismissal
sorry i havnt seen the game, was watching parra :twisted: :twisted:

Hill patted him on the back straight after the tackle before a replay had been shown...........same as the crowd and fans!

if thats the case how can hill be just as bad :roll:

 

[Fluffy]

T-rex that sounds very similar to an incedent invlovling a roosters player recently

 

[CC_Eagle]

Interesting photo....

Watmough along with 14 and a half thousand people at the ground thought it was a legit hit.

How about posting audio clips of Laurie Daley commending Hoppa for a good hit? Should we now burn Laurie at the stake? Or even condemn him to hell ala some posters on here.

I think your the stupid one Quimby, he's talking about the crowd giving him grief for yelling at Hoppa after the replay.
Think b4 you speak, or in this case type. :roll:

yeah good call you goose. This is his original post:

"What bothers me the most about this incident was the Manly players especially Terry Hill high fiving and back slapping Hoppa after his cowardly act, It happened right in front of me and it was clear that Hoppa just lost the plot he came running in from an offside position and you all witnessed the rest! But to see the reaction of Terry Hill and some(not all)of the Manly players laughing and carrying on thinking it was a great shot this was almost as bad as the act itself, especially why poor Keith Galloway was out of it on the ground, I might add a large section of the crowd thought it was great too!

Totaly unacceptable manly especially when you guys played so well."

Now can you please tell me where he says "i was victimised by the manly crowd"??

So perhaps you should read the topic before you post :roll: :roll: :roll:

 

[The Colonel]

As much as I dislike Manly and Terry Hill in real time it resembled a good hit - Sharkies fans calling into 2GB admitted to the fact. Slow it down and the truth was obvious, not even Terry on a good day would be quite that low.....

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

I don't think The Slobberer knew it was a hit with the elbow, even he's not stupid enough to condone that.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

Thank you, Colonel.

These Sharks fans are just sour because we smacked their team.

 

[Mr_Raditch]

Mate were you sitting on the hill? I am talking about the crowds reaction in front and around me. Are you saying I was the only one who noticed how bad the tackle was? And then to make matters worse when they showed it on the screen and I started yelling at Hoppa I had manly fans telling me to shut up and arguing that it wasn't that bad!

Sorry Mate that is a low as it gets!

Quimby,
Here's Mighty Sharks post in which he states he was abused by Manly fans for yelling at Hoppa after the replay.
Read all the posts before you be-little people & have all your facts straight, you & I quote "goose"
:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
Thats one more eye roll than you gave me sucker! check mate!

 

[Mr Saab]

I was watching on Fox and followed Hoppa everyone else followed the ball (Which was passed) the hit was LATE I will say it again LATE it should have been pulled up for that in the first place. Peachy dropped the ball because he was watching as Hopper's elbow was emplanted into Galloways ear.

it was not late, not late at all. Hoppa running at the pace was not able to pull out of what he intended to do. What he intended to do was put on a shoulder charge, but it went all wrong.
Keith was hit about .4 of a second after he passed the ball.
Hoppa will not be suspended for the season for that illegal hit.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

If that was late, dreary, then you have no eyes or brain.

Bag Hoppa or you like, but use your brain and leave Terry out of it.
