Concussing a prop forward doesn't have the potential to influence the game? Please. Then don't complain when something like what happened to Steve Price happens to one of your players, in the first 15 minutes of a game. You're going to sit there and be okay with it? I don't think so.
You Queenslanders just don't understand Origin. You don't have any passion. It's different from club footy. Emotions spill over, that's what happened to Gallen.
I haven't accused you of bias once despite you holding a position on Tate that I haven't heard anyone else hold, shame on you for going down that path. Like I said I'm fine with fights so long as the dog shots are dealt with by the judiciary and I think the suspensions could be a little more severe. Unfortunately though the 0 weeks for Mcguire set the precedent this year and at the time I said it was a joke.
Probably because punching someone in an Origin game is being compared to punching someone out on the piss by dickheads in the media.
The fight happened because Gallen provoked Myles. Technically Myles provoked him too, even though I don't think he was looking for a fight. But it's a cycle that started with Gallen. It's not equivalent to you randomly pushing some cunt in the Cross before he does something to you. He smashes you in the face. Then you push him. Then he smashes you again. And you're going to stand there and say, well, I shouldn't have provoked him.......
Hold on. I never said that Gallen didn't initiate the fight, you said that Myles didn't provoke him which I disagree with, a push is provocation. Don't put words in my mouth.
I didn't put words in your mouth. I'm showing why your line of thinking and the example you gave was disingenuous. A provocation after a provocation is better and more commonly known as a retaliation.
Retaliation and provocation aren't mutually exclusive. Just because it's justified doesn't mean it's not provocation.
You suggested that I would change my view point if something happened to a NSW player like what happened to Steve Price and have a "whinge". If that's not an implication of bias affecting my views then I don't know what is...
