Cameron Smith the untouchable!

So, even after, he is recorded very clearly challenging the integrity of the referree, he escapes with no penalty, meanwhile others who have done the same, get binned or sent.  No consequence from the NRL Review Committee.  Says it all.

                    • Not that I'm aware of but we arent talking about Sterling and Price. What about Francis of Assisi did he cheat? What about Ghandi and Mother Teresa? How about the bloke down the street? Nobody is exempt from the temptation to cheat to win but like Ive said its not winning if your cheating.

                    • Every player has been offside at one point or another. By your definition all players are cheats.

                      Ghandi and Mother Teresa have SFA to do with the game of rugby league. For heaven's sake give it a goddamn rest.

                    • Give what a rest? 

            • Even cheating?

              • It appear so, given his responses thus far, anything is OK as long as you win.

                • Yep that's the nature of the beast at the elite level of sport.

                  Sports people will do almost anything to win because no one cares if you played fair and finished second.

                  Insert but he was a nice guy though.

                  • Then its clearly not winning is it? What about at Casino's where the dice are loaded is that winning? Clearly in yours and Brett's estimation it is? 

  • I don’t think he the best player that’s laced on a pair of boots. This is all got to do with what’s happening in the game today. All that’s involved in running of the game have no real connection of the sport & history of Rugby League. When Super League was brought in, the very core of what this game was about, was thrown out the window to please Optus & Fox at the time. They have done almost everything to please the CEO’s of these companies this includes ch9. And in the process, the rules have changed so much that certain teams thrive on it, others struggle. And just when you buy players to suit that style, these fools change the rules again & the clubs that just adjusted their rosters, loose another season because the roster not not up to the changes. 

    Smith was a dummy half that ran the team by directing the attack, was he good as Steve Edge? As good as Benny Elias? No he wasn’t because they did everything Smith did & more. Edge a little slower but that was the game back then. How can to say he the best when you have players little Laurie Daley, Brett Kenny, Peter Sterling, Terry Lamb, Thurston & many others that don’t get a mention. This game has a lot of question marks all over it. 

    I don’t think it’s all Smith doing, I hate him for his tactics that ain’t in the spirit of the game, but that’s the Storm for you. They have done it right from the start when they tore Cayless peck muscle off the bone, back then you could see they were bending legs arms you name it. That’s why I hate the Storm & Smith, because the NRL took so long to catch on. Bellamy is the culprit, he a boarder line cheat & he knows it. But most premiers of the last couple of years have all got question marks over their wins. So what do you do? Buy players that suit the style to the current rules & when they change, you build your roster again. 

    You all have a good off season!

      • Pops, just because someone disagrees with your viewpoint about Cameron grubby Smith does mean they 'hate' him. It just means theyre telling the truth.

        • No, it doesn't they are telling the truth, it just means they are giving their opinion, like the person who gave the original point.
