Word is the coach put him up to it.

McGuire told him to do a ball and all tackle.

Not sure if it has been mentioned elsewhere but Brent Kite was asked about the Burgess tackle on Sports Tonight last night and his response was a classic. He said he was 32 with 3 kids and not much action happening down there and that it was a shame that Burgess was going to miss the Manly game.

Sorry I meant Sports Today on 2UE.

The NRL has revealed Burgess came within a just a centimetre of getting a six-week dangerous contact charge rather than two weeks for contrary conduct.

“It was minor contact,” said Greg McCallum, the head of the match review panel.

“If he’d got a handful and squeezed, it would have been grade-three dangerous contact.

“We looked at extra angles from Channel Nine and it was more the image of what he did - it looked terrible.”

That is pretty weak. If only minor contact, obviously Chambers was merely pretending to be in agony. Er ... I don't think so.

Agreed.

Ever have a mate 'flick' you in the nuts? (nah, me neither)

They may think it's funny but even though it's minor contact it usually drops you to the floor.

*In a non gay way.
**Not that there's anything wrong with that.
