I hate it when your watching a perfectly good game of rugby and S&E keeping talking about a bit of foul play, forward pass or bad PTB that was missed.

| Quote: Panda92 "I think that it can't be decided from the TV footage whether Graham did ora did not bite Slater.
On one side
[* Graham has his head at the side of Slater[/*
[* Slater has a wound to the ear.[/*
[* Slater tells the officials that he was bitten.[/*[/list
However, on the other side
[* Graham would have been wearing a gumshield.[/*
[* The wound, pictured on page 4 of this thread, looks nothing like a bitemark and only the middle of the ear is affected, not the outside. Graham would need to be half-vampire to leave that sort of mark.[/*
[* Graham was seen a couple of weeks ago near the ear of King, but he was just riling King up (to great effect).[/*[/list
Look this this image that appeared on another forum (I didn't make it) [/Centre]
Arrow 1. The referee is right next to this but did not report any sort of bite.
Arrow 3. Melbourne's #4 is pushing Graham's head into Slater.
So, overall, it's difficult to say. Whilst it looks suspicious, there is a lot of evidence to suggest otherwise. I'll leave it to the NRL judiciary to make the decision before I consider slagging him off.
If he is guilty then he deserves all this derision and a lengthy ban.
If he is found innocent then I expect that all of you will be queueing up to apologise.'"
I know you didnt make this and took it from somewhere else but people have way too much time on their hands! It does look as if he bit him and its Slaters word against Jammers unfortunately. Graham did right by rushing in to help his team mate after seeing another Melbourne player come into the scuffle but after he poleaxes Slater to the floor he should have done with it and left him on his sorry backside.
The Aussie media of course was all over it, imagine if Tolman had done it, would there be the mass furore? It writes its own headline in their media. Some papers had this sat next to Tyson on Holyfield! Morons!
In an independent National Rugby League judiciary id expect Jammer to be flogged and sent back on a ship to where he belongs, that or given probably 8 games and not get paid for quite some time. It wasnt half as bad as Brad Morrins chomp on Tahu and that copped 8 games.
Very poor from an outstanding player who now has a reputation that he could have done without. I cant imagine what Canterbury are saying about this off the record and behind closed doors.

To say that the coverage is so big because Graham is English is ridiculous. Had anyone done it would have been the same coverage. He has bitten someone in clear view on one of the biggest games in the sport which was being screened to nearly 4 million people in Aus alone. The media coverage of the NRL grandfinal is blanket in NSW and QLD, and would have had a decent share in Melbourne due to the Storms participation.
I'd call this bite even worse then Morrins, he has gone in quite hard near the face. How anyone can claim that he hasn't intentionally tried to bite Slater are insanely deluded.

| It's worse than Morrin's. He bit Tahu's arm and it was a spur of the moment thing because Tahu's arm was in front of him and he reacted to the tackle. Graham went looking for Slater when he wasn't involved and appeared to attack his ear in a sustained fashion. Morrin copped a pasting in the media as well and his suspension basically ended his first grade career, given that he was a fringe first grader as it was. An eight week (what Morrin got) ban won't ruin Graham's career. A 12 week ban probably won't either. But that's about what he'll get because a. it was worse, and b. the judiciary is harsher now than ever.

What are you talking about?
You can clearly see him biting his ear! Both stood up and on the floor.
Just because Slater's injury doesn't look as bad as Hollyfields doesn't mean the intent wasn't there.

| That is not the mark of someone who has just had his ear intentionally bit by a 17 stone bloke, I was expecting it to be hanging off after reading this thread.

You're right he probably did it in the pre game chess tournament.

"Any suspension of greater than two weeks would rule him out of England's two end-of-season Tests against Wales and France, neither of which could be counted towards his NRL ban"
Don't really understand the logic here, if he's unavailable through suspension the games should count, if they don't count towards a suspension he should be free to play. Can't have it both ways surely?

| He is a soft scouse get. An 18 stone bloke doesn't need to bite a weed to get his message across. Coward. A typical response that you would expect from a fat ginger kid who is being bullied.

| Now I've seen the photos of Slater's ear, I'm not sure what the big deal is.
It certainly isn't a bite as far as I can see.
Looks more like a cut from a punch or at worst a bang from a tooth when heads clash.

Maybe he's got rubber teeth?

| Quote: craigizzard "CSI
I'm from Hull originally, now in the South, so CSI Hertfordshire if you please.
I have no former team allegiances here so if he actually did do it I couldn't give a stuff. However from looking at the incident and the injury sustained I see no correlation that suggests that was caused from Graham biting him.
Where is the brusing for one thing? When you bite you create crushing forces, if you've ever seen anyone being bitten hard enough to cause a puncture wound you'll see brusing afterwards. that isn't present in that photo, in fact it looks like a clean cut. Show me teeth that can create such a neat little cut with no other damage around the ear..you're all in cloud cuckoo land!
This just shows how inept not only the press are but how easily people are ready to condemn someone before studying the facts, it goes against the innocent until proven guilty system that we have so long stood by.
