I got banned from a certain site for calling this grub out for what he is. The Admin obviously on the piss, didn't like it when he challenged me and didn't like my response in return. LOL
I would always want to play a side at full strength then there are no excuses. I keep saying I like my footy fair. I saw a couple of replays of the push that stopped the try. It was deffenently a try gone begging and they were robbed. I'm assuming this is what he blew up about. We all know Manly struggle a bit without Tommy T. Knights seem to have lost their mojo a bit and hasn't Ponga played 2 shockers since being signed for skillions. 🏉
My first thought is two weeks is harsh. With all the emotion and his thoughts on the call maybe he should be given some latitude.
But then I thought about it some more and in today's PC world he was probably very lucky the nrl only consider ableism 2-3 weeks. I suspect they would place another form of discrimination, as a bigger crime.
I mean, look, im only assuming here, but if he had been racist instead of ableist he probably would have got more than 2 weeks. Brings about some questions, does the NRL, and perhaps the world in general (subconsciously) place some lives above others? Is the nrl saying ableism isn't as bad as racism?
This is all assuming the nrl would suspend a player for longer than 2 weeks if he was racist. I'm thinking they most certainly would.
For what it's worth, perhaps unsurprisingly in 2020 like just about everyone on the planet I think racism is abhorrent. But then I think back to my first thought (as above) and I start to question myself too.
Final point, if all lives matter equally should AFB have got (much) longer than 2 weeks? Or is that over thinking it?
"We lost our guy from last year and replaced him with the Knights guy ?
I tend to agree , if Lomax first requested a release mid last year and that was the road we were going to go down , I like you have no problem with it . But to wait until…"
"Yes but why do we need them now.
As soon as the decision to release Lomax was agreed to that had to be the #1 decision back then.
I mean we left the door open for DB to go also and we still don't have an answer at 6 this is how this club moves at…"
"Cleary is superior to every half in the comp just saying.
What is funny is how all our fans were on there knees praising the coach for style of play and yet now we are back to the bash athon and aren't 1 built to play that way 2 are getting…"
"You know why the ruck was slow because of our lack of physicality in the middle of the park.If we ran harder like they were there getting the accendency and the officials can see that.This is the issue when your built for finesse and you play sides…"

Adam Fanua Blake has been nearly their best player each week, a massive blow for Manly and will really hurt their go forward
I noticed that too. Korisau did not miss and yet no charge?? The MRC is pathetic.
Yeah can hear the excuses now
With or without their best we are a much better side than them. Fuck em
The bloke is a gun footballer but a human shitstain.
I laughed at he it's not part of Manlys culture. He's been sacked from tow other clubs for being a lowlife. But of course Manly took him.

What site lol?
That's awesome. Turbo and AFB down. That will make Manlys chances slim.
