Mini's send-off

[Salvatori Grubber]

I'd been saying to my dad that no one ever seems to come up in the line and absolutely smash the opposition in our games. Next thing FPN (who'd been having a fine game) screams in to put on a bell-ringer. And misses. Break ensues, Mini sent off.

Don't know what my point is - probably that we suck.

Was only a send off because the Canberra bogans were screaming for blood and the refs panicked.

Mini does need to revise his tackling technique though. The flying leap at the head is not really working for him.

well we are now getting closer to our team

lets say the match review commetee see mini and give him 2 weeks.Ooooooohhhhh. could be good for mini and his 250 games, and rts as full back. smith can take taka off the wing and put him where maubs plays(maubs needs a rest). bring in henry to the wing.

next thing is to bring on sel at about 20mins in the first half for a bit of structured play. love the way this guy ignores briaths dribble on the field.

i think there is something wrong with moga. a flew or something or maybe he has been worn down by anastas shyt

Who cares! best thing thats happened to us, the blokes shit!

It was reckless and worthy of a send off, Mini jumped and made contact with Dugan's head which is simply unacceptable, whether he intended to do it or not is irrelevant, Mini did not need to jump and he did not need to lift his forearm that high, it's a 3 week suspension minimum for me.

[melon....]

If only he was sent of 60 minutes before that we may have won.

Shouldn't have been sent off but still what terrible attempts at a tackle.

Exactly.

For some reason foxsports stats are saying that RTS scored the last try, wasn't it moga

I was more bewildered that Mini used that spider monkey tackling technique the second time around after being lucky enough to avoid Dugan's head with the first attempt.

I was struggling with a definition of that tackling style of Mini's, up until now.
Thanx.

Leap high above the pack and drop your body and arms down on the player to be tackled, or hope to.

Not a good idea IMO.

I reckon if it gets referred to the judiciary, the panel will have a giggle at the tackle and and send Mini to advance skill tackling course

The one where he juggled the ball then dived over in the corner?
It was Moga.

Not too sure about that...he did seem to make contact with head of the player, with his forearm.
Send off offence, that particular tackle? no, the send off was a joke.
IMO the contact by Mini to said player was not the knock he received that made him 'wobbly' though.

All I have seen of this tackle is the still image posted in this thread. If that is indicative then its a send off.
People are claiming "no malice", who gives a toss, stupidity is enough reason.

I used to be very critical of khunt's positional play because it was shocking, well Minichello has taken it to a new level. His brain is addled and his football ****ed

THe photo is not indicative and is part of a News Ltrd stitch up. A 2D still can be taken out of context and this is designed to inflame.

Pity Shortall doesn't have the authority to sack players as well as send them off.

Is Mini midely retarded? Serious question, is he cause he certainly plays like he has down syndrome.

Chook.
