Noa, that's rather sad, because I've been to many a game and never heard anything sound as brutal as that. The great part about it was it wasn't a shoulder charge, it was just brutally well executed technique around the waist. Yeh... an around the waist tackle under the ribs did the damage.

How about a change up, we've seen a lot of defenders cleaning blokes up, but what about Ruben Wiki ball in hand cleaning up Iosia Soliola.

Lincoln Withers on Joe Galavao .. Little man on big man ... The hit straightened out Galavaos hair.
Happened in Round 14 2004

I agree. That whole play was just epic.

But alas, was last millennium. We got 90 years to go to decide this years one! The Burgess hit, while very, very good, wont even make the top 20!

Try 990 mate - millenium is 1000 years...

As for the thread topic, Wiki has to be my vote.

Broncos Warriors games are usually good for this stuff...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moKyPMTlpCc - although I stress, this had absolutely nothing on it, IMO against the tackle Villa put on Ash Graham, 2003 at Parra Stadium. He cut him in two with a textbook perfect tackle.

I can't see any of it on youtube, but there was a period where Francis Meli just kept decapitating Brent Tate day in day out.

Thats basically the reason he carries around a surf board on his back to this day.

I reckon the reason he signed with the Warriors was so that he could stop getting smashed by them.

Also after Kidwell hit on Mason, Willie has played more than about 3 good games since.
