But Mcguire was already falling according to some.

thats not what is offensive about what he said.

Players cheat, they all do, if they didnt we wouldnt have referees.

Oh I'm well aware of what everyones whinging about (other than the cheating of course).

There's offence then there's the way over the top comments on here and the sky website.

No one is doing themselves any favours.

How does it add up to whinging when fans are angry at an article by a Sky pundit implying Mcguire deserved his injury for pulling carmonts shirt?
Iiirc did'nt you and G1 react with similar disgust when Pie fans and others were posting that Mags got what he deserved?

Where has he implied that?



I reacted to comments worthy of offence.

He states that "Mcguires injury could act as a lesson that it doesn't pay to cheat and that the rugby gods have handed out punishment for unsportsmanlike play"
To me that implies he thinks it's justice handed out for Mags pulling Carmonts shirt what do you think it means?

I have sent my rant to SKY. Lets show this man up for what he is.........An F1 t1t

What angered me was the comments aimed at Mcguire yet he forgets (and doesnt raise) Tomkins act of thugery

There are actually some good and well reasoned responses on the Sky site, not at all the frothing-mouth stuff that I suspected would appear, good and well reasoned responses deserve an answer from the original poster.

That's not what you said.

You said Clarke implied he deserved the injury. He didnt.

Clarkes wrong is that no other player will give it a 2nd thought in the heat of the moment as to whether it pays to cheat or not. They'll just do whatever instinctively.

There's more to the incident than meets the eye anyway.

he clearly did,

by inferring the injury was doled out as some sort of karmic justice he clearly implied it was a deserved punishment rather than a chance accident

I think he did and still do he later goes onto state that Wigan will be spurred on by injustice.
The very fact he implies that the rugby gods have somehow made Maguire pay for his actions and could act as a lesson for other players says to me thinks some sort of justice was handed out.

Yes. Injustice that Mcguire cheated and it ultimately cost Wigan the real chance of a win.



The key word is perhaps.

I think he sees it as "Karma" or justice that Mags got injured to be honest mate and given his previous rants about Leeds especially after the 08 GF it points to that opinion.
I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this one D but i think Clarke means full well what i implied.

He's a grade A idiot.
