Matai not charged

[mcatt]

Great news!! I was worried that they would rub him out for the year. It was a nothing incident and he didn't deserve to be charged, but we all know Matai only needs to sneeze in the direction of an opposing player and he gets a 5 week stint on the sidelines.

I thought with Matai he would of been gone with his rep. This is great, now he can put a big hit on Slater. He has been on fire this year.

Guess the papers will have to find something else to blow out of proportion. Fox commentators must be shattered as well.

 

[lsz]

Maybe there is no conspiracy?

 

[Captain Moondog]

Or an attempt by the forces of evil to lull us into a false sense of security while they continue to plot our downfall. (the cunning devils).

 

[eagle-rock08]

Geez the commentators on Fox almost crucified him during their call.

Good to see common sense (that is not all that common) being used.

Great news he'll be a handull for the storm.

True, but I don't think he'll be gifted any tries against Melbourne like he has in the past 2 matches.

Now we await the Fox commentators (and others) admitting they got it wrong big time.

That their bias caused them to massively over-reacted solely because of Matai's name and team colours.

I wouldn't hold my breath for that one, about as likely to happen as having the goose apologise and admit he got it wrong, ain't going to happen

Nothing like trial by media hey.

Trying to imagine the Fox commentators reacting the same if it was Lockyer rather than Matai involved.
