| Quote El Diablo="El Diablo"Utter nonsense. There are plenty of other ways to interpret it. I used to do it on the pitch from time to time. In much the same way as saying "aw, I love you too" in mockery of somebody's aggressive carrying on. The idea that I would blow the kiss, but it would suggest that the other party was gay seems a bit illogical to me.'"
Possibly. One could easily argue I'm the homophobe for interpreting it that way. Good job I'm not a celebrity doing it in front of 200,000 people, of which 198,000 of them probably hate me. |

Whatever your view on the severity of his actions, he deserves a ban for being possibly the most stupid man on earth for seemingly (certainly looked pretty clear to me) following up a blown kiss with another homophobic insult on live TV after his recent ban and grovelling statement.

I'd rather not get that philosophical tonight.
I'd also rather leave determining what was said to those who heard it. |

The one thing that's clear to me after the response to Zak blowing a kiss at the Saints player is the complete and utter over reaction of certain posters who are terrified he will stop them from winning their only silverware in years should he play against them again this season. Naughty Zak how dare you...
Grow up boys it's a big boys game.

He may well not be, I don't know him like you. I just think he needs to think things through a little more, if you don't do anything that people could warp one way or the other you can't get in trouble. Do things like he did tonight and he lays himself open for it. |

Haha. I love this. Several fans comment on it and you single me out.
Hardaker is a great player but he clearly has occasional lapses in concentration. He has made a silly comment tonight that may or may not get get him in bother. I personally think it should. We don't have to agree but nor do we need to be immature and argumentative about it. |

| Quote Saddened!="Saddened!"It's the world we live in. When you are a highly paid professional who is in a position of influence as pro sportsmen are, there isn't any room for any kind of homophobia, racism or sexual deviance. Everyone knows it's not a particularly heinous crime, but it's something he's got to grow up and move past.'"
Help please!
Now I may be a bit slow, but can somebody please explain to me why, as stated above, is a professional sportsman in a position of influence, who is it he is influencing, and what bearing does his salary have on it all? |

You are right we don't. You are wrong, we don't have to argue.

I notice you made a swift backtracking edit there. I genuinely thought he said pr!ck which certainly isn't homophobic.
I'm also 100% positive that a Leigh player called Zak a faggo on live tv when he scored the winning try in our cup game... Zak just laughed it off but oddly there was no witch hunt on rlfans.
Perhaps just maybe your opinion of Zak/the witch hunts on here are clouding your interpretation |
