Once it became apparent he was in a bad way attitudes on field changed..
Not quite ..after McKinnon was carried from the field .Then Smith protested to the ref saying
1/ There have been worse tackles than that
2/ the reason he got hurt was because HE tucked his head under before the tackle
3/ So your saying if he didn’t tuck his head then there’s no penalty..
That’s crossing the line
The guy has been carried off the field so it’s something serious ...Smith saw McKinnon tuck his head under himself so with a bit of IQ combined with any kind of concern for your fellow league player he would know there’s no coming back from that ..And he’s gasping for air (likely never seen before) so it’s more evidence this is likely a serious neck injury and possible paralysis.

And then when McKinnon calls him out on the 60 minutes programme which was justified Smith defends himself for the sake of his image and again showing zero regard for a player that had the worst possible result from a tackle.Maybe worse than death..

This footage is defence of smith ..But all I need to see is smith after McKinnon has been carried from the field still arguing with the ref trying to pin the blame on McKinnon because of his voluntary head tuck.. knowing from the evidence 1/his neck couldn’t survive that 2/ he was carried from the field 3/ he's gasping for air ...ok so surely now it’s time to shut up....but no Smith ploughs on ....Sure that was a voluntary head tuck and without it there’s likely no injury but those words can only come from a nasty piece of work with no regard for any other person regardless their circumstance in what any other captain would ID as a most sensitive moment .. that’s a really murky place to go where only dregs of the earth captains would go to attempt to get a penalty.... imo no other captain would have gone there ..That's a line you just don’t cross .....But not for Smith

So you don’t know humble either or the consequences of not being humble ..If you lose It’s not the team and the individual players who are going to Laugh at u



I have no idea what what your meaning is. But that's OK. I'm a long term member of the Panthers, been a member for well over 15 years (even though I no longer live in the area) I've seen the good, the bad and everything in between

If you see that as a lack of humality that's fine.

For many of you The Penrith Panthers continue to live rent free within your head (simgular and collective)

I don’t know about us, but you are currently top poster on our site, have they banned you from the Panthers site?

That’s all just opinion and that’s fine.
I viewed that incident differently.

All good mate ...Your take on the tackle looking ok at first compared with others of that time was fair I hadn’t considered that...the Poor bastard.. I saw his mother talking in one of those YouTube clips...not good..at least now players look out for that situation and pull out

Anyway I think Smith did drop his act ..In private with Mckinnon.His Wife would have insisted. I’m thinking hes Poss / hopefully learnt something from that meeting..Not guaranteed tho..No news out of that meeting was permitted naturally

Its a pain to have the showcase game on late on a Sunday, isn't it?
It is. Build up has been very flat. Will be a slog fest in the wet with one of the Storm forwards falling over the line from a short range forward pass from Cam Smith. The usual.
