Message: [QUOTE="Midean, post: 3632067, member: 10185"] Disagree, i think he handled it perfectly, with class and with obvious anger and distaste at the tactic without succumbing to the journalist bait. Everyone who saw the opening 8 minutes knows exactly what was happening with three late hits in three touches of the ball and there is enough outside press on the lead up to the game and the tactics to shut Walsh down that anyone with half a brain knows this was a hit-job that went spectacularly wrong. The thing is, there is a lot of people ( most i would think ) who believe the game was ruined in the 8th minute because of that tactic and Vlandys and his cronies will not like that at all. The games biggest superstar gets wiped out on the games biggest stage, with the eyes of a million kids and footy mums watching thuggery at its worst and basically shining a terrible light on the game as well as taking the excitement out of the whole affair. After sleeping on it, i wouldn't be surprised to see the NRL make an example of Sua li'i, he is off to union anyway and they absolutely have to try and squash this tactic of injuring star playmakers to impact the game. (thanks Penrith). Billy made it perfectly clear he was angry about what happened and he handled it like a boss (just my opinion). [/QUOTE]
