No one is doubting Slater's quality as a player but it is true that he gets over competitive and takes liberties in relation to niggling and foul play. Twenty years ago he would be dealt with on the pitch for play like that.

Whatever anyone thinks of Slater he is one of the finest fullbacks I've seen. Yes he can be grubby, however I have respect for the guy after the incident with David Williams........was the first one to call a halt to play, held Williams' head on his lap as he lay motionless & unable to move whilst waiting for assistance.....showed he cared for a fellow player! Good enough for me........

Lol.. agree the hatred I have for cam smith and billy slater is immeasurable.
These two dirty grubs get covered up by the media and those morons at ch9

But if you remember that period he was at his grubbiest and one of the most hated in the league.
That was a publicity stunt. If you watch all his games he always does 2 or 3 grubby things that other players would get penalised or suspended for.

Publicity stunt? Don't think so mate! He was also one of the first to check on him after the match! Anyway we all have our own opinions so fair enough.

Not his go
5 mins after Slaters incident with Wolfman he put a forearm into the head of a player who has just been on the end of a spear tackle
He kicked John Skandalis in the head. When coming back from that suspension, he elbowed a player in the head and sat out some more time
He is a low ****

I also remember from 08 to 2010 if any player would score a try in the corner you would be coping 2 boots to the head by slater as he would come sliding in.
He did it for 2 years before copping an official warning from the league.
Being hit with a feather in other words.
It's beyond me how anyone can defend slater, cam smith and bellamys grubby tactics on and off the field unless you haven't watched much footy or are a die hard storm supporter
It's no coincidence those grubs are bagged by current and ex players.

Settle down mate!!
Because your head is shaped like a spark plug doesn't mean you are a champion.
But yeah he can play, but i ain't ever gonna admit it, especially here on this forum.

Wow, did he really do that???? Unbelievable! People who shout out to everyone about the good deeds they do are the ones I trust the least. I prefer an arsehole who is comfortable being who he is than a person who shines the light on anything good that they do as a way of deflecting people away from seeing them for what they really are.
