And i gave you a simple answer. No, not according to James Child.

Im not sure how much simpler it can be for you, James Child does not think that JP verbally abused him. James Child did not think his use of the word bent was a homophobic insult (like everyone else)

You say a simple yes or no will suffice, yet no didnt suffice. You're very strange, like a very boring jester.

You certainly did and the fact you're so up in arms over someone saying the word BENT when to 99.9% of us it means something totally different to what you're insinuating says a lot more about your own character than anyone elses.

Keep going though, it's entertaining to read your faux outrage and there's not much on the tele.

Based in what I've seen Peacock, Clarke and Walsh are good bets SO FAR.
SOL at Wigan will probably be in the top 3 come the end regardless of how many games he plays.

As a Giants fan if I had to put one of my teams players in I would probably go with Joe Wardle. He's troubled a few teams this year in attack and defence.

So now we have a situation in The Avenger's head where Richard Agar was secretly tried and punished by the RFL for using the word bent to James Child included a refs report that nobody reported on, and JP not being punished for using the word bent to James Child included in a refs report that has been publicly reported as including a homophobic insult by another player, but not Peacock's, who hasnt been secretly tried and punished by the RFL.

That sounds a realistic state of affairs.

I've been pretty consistent throughout.
My point is that this year Jamie Peacock is behind a couple of other players on performance.
Also, in my opinion, he has ruled himself out of being worthy of receiving the award (this year) because of his foulmouthed tirade at a match official which was caught on video and seen live on national television. Added to that the unedifying sight of a 36-year-old ex Great Britain captain raining punches on a man half his size and half his age.

For holding that opinion I have since been plagued by the usual suspects from the Leeds mob who just won't hear anything negative said about one of the Rhinos players.

Clark looks likely for YPOY if he carries on as he is. Hardaker would have been up there if not for his moment of idiocy as he has had a storming start to the year.

S'OL has been great as well but you can't win MoS playing half a season in my opinion. Needs to be on the field more

I dont believe you about Agar. It is clearly unsubstantiated nonsense which goes against all available evidence.

James Child didnt think it was meant in that way, it is very rare for the word to be used in that way. That is an incident and problem though up entirely in your head. Thats the reason he hasnt been punished for it.

I've toyed with you enough now, but it has been funny watching you get further and further in to your own rabbit hole of nonsense. I dont care if Peacock called Child a bent cu4t, it wasnt a homophobic or racist or anything like that, Child is a big boy, who cared that much he made no mention of it since. A pretty meaningless insult will be water off his back, he will be ok. Even if you arent.

Like I said, you can't be honest about it

Oh give it a rest, that's even more desperate than your "bent" tirade. The Leigh player was big enough and old enough to be on the pitch throwing sly shots and head butting players so he's big enough and old enough to take a battering for doing so. From what McDermott said last week there was a lot more going on in the build up to that too.



Far from it, once charged I had no argument with Hardaker's ban and Ablett's 2 weeks off. I really don't see why anyone should be banned for reacting to dirty ***** like that though whether they play for Leeds, Saints or Doncaster, guy deserved all he got.

Walsh, Peacock, Clark top 3. Order has scope to change between now and October.

Oddly anough I was listening to Bill Harrigan last night, and he said he'd automatically send off any player who accused him of cheating - he could handle abuse, particularly after a controversial decision, but that was his line in the sand (and why he sent off Tallis in Origin for just that offence). He also reckoned more refs should sinbin players for OTT abuse than they do, as this would stop it.

Have to say I tend to agree with him - if Peacock called Child a 'bent so and so' I'd have no problem with binning him, not for being homophobic (bent and bender really are something from the 70s as far as homophobic slurs go) but for questioning impartiality.

Please Please Please can the Mods lock this thread or at least virtually slap Smokey and Avenger. Again another thread whereby Smokey doesn't agree so he argues constantly until the other poster gets bored.
