the game has gone more professional,what a load of rubbish u call a spade a spade cos it is one rugby league will always be the same which is about getting one over on your opponent and if that means via skill or looking after yourself and teammates during the game you do so.

"Leeds is the greatest club in Rugby League"
Alex Murphy 2011: |
|
| Quote: Ron "Reading through the replies, you would think Tamou had knocked the innocent Galloway out, and Garbutt had run in to save the day.
The reality, Galloway throughout the game had been taking things to far on the ground, giving facials and choking players, causing pushing and shoving on a few occasions which escalated into Tamou giving him a little slap on the cheek in the last ten mins.
That's as far as it would have gone until Garbutt runs in and sucker punches, yes it was a sucker punch and breaks Tamou nose.
Anyone who thinks a sucker punch is acceptable epitomises the culture that needs to be stamped out of RL.'"
I was proud of Garbutt, saw his mate get punched, exacted immediate retribution face to face. Not like the biggest coward in Superleague over at your place, you know, the fella that punches little stand offs in the eye when they're layed on the floor holding the ball unable to protect themselves. You know, the fella that took a whole 90 seconds of the new season before he tried taking our young stand off out with an illegal shoulder charge. You know the fella ? |

A prop punches a prop after he tried to punch another prop. Good job the Chairman of the PFU isn't around to hear all this rubbish along with the pansy-& comments from Matt Scott. He'd be weeping into his pint of mild.

Yes well done on finding punches from 6 years ago in the NRL to argue my point that since the automatic sin binning ban a couple of seasons ago, rarely a punch is thrown, coupled with a push and a high tackle in SOO last year thrown in for good measure.
Oh and I am not arguing that players don't still occasionally lose the plot, but sucker punching isn't something that should be condoned and applauded (see this thread)... at least Garbutt came out and has apologised publicly and to Tamou after the game.

Having watched those Garbutt should have hit him harder. It's no surprise he got his retaliation in first.

There you go again with this "sucker punching" nonsense. It might make you feel a little more self righteous to describe it this way, but to everyone else you look like a clueless idiot. Here's a tip, if a large bloke has hold of you - right in front of your face - after you've just slapped one of his mates, you need to f*****g pay attention to him. Garbutt gave him so much warning he could have called the ambulance, booked into hospital and ordered his meal before he was hit.
Maybe he's used to handing out the slaps rather than getting anything back. |

I haven't read the full thread (too lazy) but for mine:
1) When Flower first smacked Hohaia he deserved it, it was the second punch that was way out of order which means these two incidents are not in any way comparable.
2) This is Rugby League... when did it turn into wendyball? It's the aggressive and violent nature of the sport that makes it so inviting for a majority of us. If I wanted to watch a load of skillful blokes playing a team game I'd be at Elland Road every other week (insert own joke here)

I'm going to bookmark this thread and then resurrect the responses next time a Leeds player gets biffed and there's an outbreak of hypocritical faux outrage.

[quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj]
