Please tell me Fai is going to end up like Mckinnon as well

what is that supposed to mean? ill give you the benefit of the doubt here and try read this comment on a somehow positive basis that mckinnon was a good player and not the other way!!!!

I'm hoping you're oblivious to McKinnon's fate, and aren't actually wishing Fai to break his neck...

I'll let him explain, but that's how I read it. Just poorly worded.

Trent Barrett claims the tackle on Trbojevic cost them the game and that Manly would have won if it didn't happen.

McKinnon rode the pine for the entire game on more than one occasion. I'm assuming that is what he is getting at.

One mistake in a post and everyone goes crazy WOW

 

[Unbreakable]

Even saying "Hope he isn't going to end up like McKinnon as well" is pretty insensitive bud.

That legal tackle did help the Broncos Trent.

You cant really complain when your assistant coach Carty taught Mead to smash the attacking players while they are in the air.

I Wasn't being serious. Having said that I have lost all my respect for Mckinnon

It was a mistake, let's move on...

I'm still confused about the interpretation of the Moga No Try decision.

So basically it would have been perfectly fine if Thaiday had have made more of an effort to run towards the posts. However, contact would never have been made if Cherry-Evans had have made a genuine attempt at Boyd instead of grabbing onto Sam and propelling himself to the ground.

The problem is that last night was not a black and white situation and if defenders are smart, they'll do whatever they can to position the block player as an obstruction which is rubbish.

Slightly off topic but does anyone know why J.Wallace is kiling it at the Titans. There's even talk of bring him into Origin!!! Forgot who but I recall someone here would delete their BHQ account if this happened XD XD XD

I believe it was Unbreakable...

(If Wallace starts).

Agreed.

Terrible decision and great to see the bull-shit call out in force at Lang Park for it.

They should be binning players like DCE who do this professional foul play, not taking tries off the opposing teams.

WB summed it up:

"everybody will be doing it in the next two months. It's about (staying on) the inside shoulder line but Sam started on his inside shoulder. He (Cherry-Evans) changed his line. If he just stayed on his line then Sam wouldn't have (collided).

You just can't get tapped like he did there and fall over backwards. It was obviously deliberate. He realised he had made the wrong decision defensively....we have officials in the game who need to make decisions and see that and say it's not acceptable"

I must have missed the bit where he complained about the refs and touchies missing the forward pass which gave his team a try that shouldn't have been ....

Ouch.

Time for Unbreakable to break in a alias account. He can use one of mine if he wants. I'll give him Big Pete
