He's pretty spot on. Ballantyne hasn't earned his stripes yet so to puff out his chest and act the tough man is a little rich. He should concentrate on getting a kick first or better still put his head over the ball and earn it. I think BJ gave him a few choice words at the end of the game. He has talent but tries to act as an enforcer.

He was their best player yesterday IMO. PITA he may be, but he can play.

So why did Fremantle want to go on with it after the siren and why was Goddard so worked up over something afte the siren?

Seems like more to it to me.

because they are bad losers. a disgraceful display of poor sportsmanship, i thought.

Unfortunately it was Goddard who initiated the incident after the siren. Goddard went out of his way to shove Ballantyne. I think it had something to do with an earlier incident when Morabito was given a fifty metre penalty and goaled. BJ really just should have stayed out of it.
He played a great game and he is very important to the team.

As another poster said it was Goddard who began the shoving etc after the game. Does that make Goddard a bad winner/bad sport?

If it is good enough to classify Fremantle players as such then you have to classify ours as such, considering we started it.

Agree 100% Saintsfan. Goddard's passion is CRUCIAL and inspirational, but he and his team'd well served sometimes if his shelved the petulance and just played. Thankfully it only bubbles a couple of times a year...

Similarly, having Ballantyne's behaviour 'unsettle' a few around these parts and onfield seems a bit rich when Milney's been doing the same thing for 200 games.

Stop the strop, I say. Just get on with it.

Bigger fish than Freo to fry.

Goddard is an angry asshole. Baker is a little s***. If Milne was not good at football god help where he would be.

All clubs have them and this anger is what defines and assists a sporting organisation and I think it is great.

In 2005, if I'm not mistaken, we were labelled for being really soft and came out hard and showed some agro on the field the following week en route to a gritty win against Foostcray I think it was. We then won like eight or nine matches in a row from them and stormed into the top four.

My point being a bit of agro is always good. Don't forget Lenny;. tough as nails. remember him in the sirengate fiasco?

Aye...

Telling connolly to get his fat arse off the ground....

I think sirengate was a wee bit different. All players (probably Fremantle's too) would have preferred if Cuddles stayed inside the box....

He reminds me of Milney the way he plays, no fear just beleives he will never get caught and just goes for it. I think he will be hated by other clubs like our Stephen too

I am loving the fact the others are starting to hate us, feels good to me and even better knowing that we are good enough to go as hard as you want.

Hope we trout off against Geelong too, just for Harves sake give em a spray i say

Connolly saying to Hayes "Dont hit me Lenny, Dont hit me Lenny" tells you a lot about the type of character Connolly was.

Anyone know why bj reacted the way he did? Ballantyne is an absolute dirty little pr!ck and I bet he was dissing bj about his family.

I am glad bj gave it to that little effing loser. Good on you bj, show those Freo softc#ck, downhill skiiers what it takes to be a top four team.

Eastern · Post: # 942322Post **Eastern** » Tue 15 Jun 2010 11:47am

It looked like BOTH Ballantyne & Crowley "got stuck into BJ after he gave that 50m penalty away for kicking the ball away in the dying minutes. It appeared that Ballantyne gave BJ a cheap one to the guts. I suspect that BJ may have provided a little payback after the siren and it blew up from there !!

wasoncestkil58 · Tue 15 Jun 2010 11:56am

Hey Eastern, that is pretty much how I saw it as I was at the game behind the goals along with many other proud Sainters.
Just think it didn't look good to see Goddard react to something like that after the siren considering he ran out of his way to confront Ballantyne.
Love the way Goddard has been playing lately though.

Actually a really nice bloke, a family man and a natural leader who loves teaching and working with young people. Not sure if he likes pies but a lot of people do. Dont think he drinks a lot but probably has been drunk at times, think we all have? Well most of us not all.

Shouldnt have been on the ground at the end of that match though.
