Odd then how one moment he's not in Flower's path and the next he is.

Whatever, bet Lance doesn't 'escort' him again.

Hohaia can always console himself with his winners medal

Was Flower even allowed his loser's medal?

I reckon he would amongst others, ticking time bomb is Flower if Mr Wane keeps his ethos of thugby.
Would like Mose to take On olde Benny a bit different to reacting against the smallest bloke on the pitch

Gentle Ben will be a magnet for wind-up merchants, expect to see others walking for having a pop at him....

If he was, he could pop it right next to the winner's ring he already has.

Whether Hohaia was escorting Flower or not, the shove Flower gave him was not worthy of the reaction from Hohaia. He quite rightly got a ban for it, was lucky not to be sent off. The second punch from Flower was despicable, and he's been quite rightly banned and castigated for it. The first punch would probably have seen him walk anyway, because when you knock someone out it looks worse, even though for example Paul Wood threw 4 punches at Eddie, but only got a yellow, because he didn't connect.

Anyway, it's about time we stopped all this, he did this, he did that petty squabbling. Lets put all this sorry saga behind us and make this sport known to everyone what we already know it is. THE GREATEST SPORT IN THE WORLD.

Is that what got him through those long cold nights when you pretended he was suicidal?

He will have a fair bit of time to look at his winners ring over the next 4 months before he can play again. And I'm sure he wouldn't need his loses ring to remind him of the time he humiliated himself on the largest stage possible, im sure there will be 17 players and a few thousand fans perfectly happy to remind him every week

For the record, Ben Flower may not have recieved any medal for the grand final. He merely gets his place in history as the first person sent off in a super league grand final. When a player is dismissed during a Grand Final or Play Off Final, the medal to which he may otherwise have been entitled may be withheld at the discretion of the Board. http://www.therfl.co.uk/the-rfl/rules/i ... section=B3

Quite possibly. In fact, probably. What's your point? Oh, you don't have one. Glad it gives you so much pleasure. Did you rub your thighs and snort gleefully as you wrote that?

I thought the point was pretty obvious, sadly it seems it was beyond you. ill try simplifying it for you. All your 'he wont try that again' braggadocio is misplaced, far from him 'not trying that again' since he has highlighted his self control issues, everyone will be trying it all the time.

Oh dear, you really took all that seriously didn't you? I'd have thought the smiley faces might have helped. Still, a nice juicy bite.


Oh, and still waiting for proof of the below:
