Anderson claims Mortimer hit missile-like

Posted by 1Eyed Eel on September 19, 2009 at 8:22am

The Sam Tagataese hit they rubbed Daniel Mortimer out of the game and which threatens his return for the mammoth Bulldogs clash, was slammed by Eels coach Daniel Anderson yesterday. "I'm pretty upset about that. I've had numerous discussions with the referees about kick pressure this year because I've thought in the Origin series that the kickers were getting collected," Anderson told AAP. "I know Samuel (Tagataese) pretty well from New Zealand but he was a missile. He had his arms beside him, he didn't go for a tackle and he took out a player. "It doesn't matter who it was, whether it was a young bloke or not, he took him out and to have nothing done is disappointing.

That was wrong. To not even result in a penalty was ridiculous... that sort of thing has been penalised all season.

  No. No send offs in the finals. On report or sin-binned, penalty try, anything but don't fuck the game up by making 13 play 12 .

"Did you watch him play in this years final for Souths? He was owned by old man Gagai. Laurel went missing all game although he did pass the ball from dummy half a lot to the other outside backs to work it out of their end. Massive NO."
