The Slap

[globaleagle]

and what is the NRL (Turdy) doing about it v.... oh yeah that's right it was a bulldag ... so nothing

Agreed. Certainly..at a minimum there should have been a contrary conduct charge.

You have a captain of a nrl team (yay Manly) who is also well spoken and measured in his comments and never in trouble off the field, being slapped openly and brazenly by another player out of frustration.

Not a good look, not what the nrl claim they want to see and yet.....absolutely nothing is done about it. Not even one of their (joke of a) monetary fine.

So.... if you only want to give away a penalty and nothing else....wind up the old arm and slap the crap out of someone.

Most of us could slap todd into next week (I'm choosing you @yokahontas to do it!!!) and I bet he'd want some recompense!

Striking, surely it's not ok?

Throwing a water bottle ala George Burgess was a 2 week charge, yet slapping is not.
'Greenturd, please explain'

 

[Brookie Brawler]

If Klemmer had slapped DCE with equal force in the same part of the face by accident while trying to make a tackle their is a fair chance he would have been charged.

But in this instance its ok because he did it intentionally and aggressively. A completely avoidable assault that had nothing to do with the rules of a contact sport - so we're all good. Move on nothing to see!

I'm up for that - but I'm not paying for the privilege! I reckon enough people would contribute on gofundme to cover my legal bills lol

Klemmer is a cat and pea heart. Agree 40 years ago Randall would have hospitalised the fairy princess.

Careful Global, I would be a bit concerned @yokahontas would escalate things a bit.

I could bring my little sisters along...?

 

[Real Deal]

What would happen if Klemmer had slapped a media darling like JT, GI or Cam Smith? I suspect there would be outrage.

 

[Manlymaniac]

Firstly I have no issue with the Biff, didnt mind a fair 1 on 1 in the game. But they have outlawed it. Imagine standing in front of a judge saying it was only a slap if on the street either is assault

Imagine if Marty slapped JT out for a month

 

[Wombat64]

I know it's already a bloody tough, tough game but what's the game coming to when blokes are slapping each other? A slap? Fucek me dead. What's next handbags at 50 paces? Not a fan of the slap. The biff.... big fan.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

This has Greenslimes fingerprints all over it, you can be assured he'd have rung the MRC and said " what happened on the field was enough".

Pity the ****er can't fix the Bulldogs......lol

Greenberg is the slimiest c$&t to ever be associated with the game. He should shove his cliche responses and his thesaurus up his peasant gypsy ass. I'm over his buyest to Canterbury!

 

[yokahontas]

The only conclusion we can draw from all of this is - Klemmer's a giant dirty slapper

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Klemmer is a cat and pea heart. Agree 40 years ago Randall would have hospitalised the fairy princess.

Reminds me of the story of the young bloke who took off after a bingle with an older driver (who was being threatened by the younger driver), on Victoria Road, about 40 years ago.

When he saw this suntanned superman approaching, asking 'What's going on?' - he took off in a hurry.

The concerned citizen was Terry Randall.

 

[Bearfax]

If you did the slapping to a woman, you would be charged with a criminal act. Where is the difference? Too many rules are bent because men are supposed to be tough and take it. Bull crap.

 

[Go manly]

Yep Fair dinkum was in front of me on the hill.

Thanks sheik

That's down right disgusting then and disrespectful to not only DCE but the whole club

I can handle the slap in the heat of the moment but not to shake hands with the captain

FFS what a prik

I hope the whole team knows about it and ensures that we use that weak gutted carnt as motivation to never let a team he plays for again get the better of us

He will never be any good in my book

He is a dog and a over rated bully

Like others I would like the upstart to try that with spud, BK , RAMBO Gibbs or gifty

By the way Terry hill would eat him from centre

No good Yellow mongrel dog

End of rant

Here is a Slap in the face to all the Sea eagle Sceptics

From Zero Tackle

The Sea Eagles have won by a combined margin of 66-8 over their last two appearances, including a 36-0 thrashing of the Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon. It was in that match where DCE returned to his devastating best, recording a remarkable FIVE try assists in the win.
The Bulldogs simply had no answer for Cherry-Evans as he and his side dominated the match from start to finish as the Sea Eagles ran in seven unanswered tries over the 80 minutes.
Despite the Cowboys enjoying 56% possession over the course of the match, as well as 62% of the territory, Manly were able to hold the 2015 premiers to just one try over 80 minutes.

MANLY forward Nate Myles has called on the NRL to ban the open-handed slap, saying players should be sin-binned just as they are for punching.

Myles’ Sea Eagles teammate Daly Cherry-Evans was on the end of a hard opened- handed hit from Canterbury enforcer David Klemmer in Manly’s 36-0 flogging of the Bulldogs on Saturday.
