Rap over knuckles

Bailey Simonsson, the young Canberra player who was on the wrong end of Cameron Smith’s ‘‘wing nut tackle’’, spoke about the incident during the week for the first time since he was thrust into the spotlight. He declared that his ears were OK. And, naturally, he didn’t lay into Smith. What rookie would?

Privately, he talked to the club about the pressure that was applied to his temples by Smith’s knuckles, rather than the ear pull. It’s something the Storm must have learnt by watching The Three Stooges movies.
It is something the NRL will need to watch from this point on. We can only credit Shane Richardson for bringing the Storm’s tactics into the public eye once again. He has received widespread support from throughout the game.
