Cooper Cronk weighs in on the Burgess headbutt

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa that’s pure gold

It was Sam and the NRL should have paid Mitchell not the other way round

Here have a lavender tissue, gonna meet your latest recruit at your local on the weekend? You can help carry him out Choo choo Outa my way here I come choo Choo

Settle petal, wow don’t you get testy for a dwarf! Yep the lad thought they were sharing a giant chicken on the weekend shame on them, nothing really when you look at burger mans rap sheet, quite an achiever he is, baaaaaaa Choo Choo outa my way choo Choo here I come

It would be interesting to see what the Tigers strategy is. It's hard to imagine they have bought players like Farrah, Marshall , Mannah and even Josh Reynolds to the club and have a vision of any of these players doing a lap of honor at any stage. Maybe they are regarding them as good value mentors in the short term who can help the club to a decent number of wins.

Timmy won't be sharing his kibbeh with Benny when he gets there.

Cooper should be more concerned about the crap performance he put in last week.

I don't see Smith or Slater weighing in on topics like this... Go to the back of the room Cooper, blokes in your team have done worse - consistently -.

"JWH has been getting away with the raised forearm for a decade" YES!!! Thank you! WHY is this continually overlooked by the NRL? Is it no less dangerous? There is also FAR more intent. If a ball carrier falls or changes direction at the last second giving a defender a fraction of a second to adjust or pull out of a tackle and the defender strikes a player around the head then that is a reprehensible act and worthy of a suspension despite the fact it was accidentally and not premeditated. However, if the ball carrier runs for 20 metres and raises his forearm to contact a defender in the head or throat then that is OK and play on. The last time a player got penalised for that it was the referee's scapegoat and favourite "bunny" Sam Burgess making contact with Josh Morris when he still played for the Bulldogs and JMoz had to intentionally jump two feet into the air to get his chin in line with Sam's elbow! Talk about complete BS, hypocrisy and double standards! Where is the NRL's concern for player welfare for the defenders in these cases?

Glass houses, Smithers? Or just typical Manly double standards? Manly's wishbone tackle on Jordan McLean has Paul Green fuming and could have resulted in McLean being sidelined f or a MUCH longer period than any incidental head contact that would have resulted in a HIA. https://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nrl-premiership/cowboys-coach-paul-green-filthy-at-wishbone-tackle-on-blues-hopeful-jordan-mclean/news-story/9a7a3b8e2a55bdd0ff1f2d9826c52ca5

Latrell to Souths???? Sorry, won't believe it until announced..

JWH has been getting away with the raised forearm for a decade , Maguire might actually have to blind someone to get suspended. Everyone is up in arms about the softest head butt I have seen on a footy field . Tom and Sam should be knighted for bringing back a bit of passion to the game , than again they don’t play for the roosters suspend them for a decade I say

No I didn’t stevesyd

They dont have to. Sam will probably have $1600 tucked away for a compliment repay for Latrell if you recall R1 unless Latrell has already announced will be at Souths next year.

So when Latrell was fined $1600 for almost breaking Sam's jaw in R1 that was ok apparantly. There's your consistency.

But you and Cronk consider Hargreaves tackle on Ponga was fine? LOL

Cronk is correct, Only Mr Burns can get away with this dribble

Hope Souths replay this before their final match...
