Both knock ons it was Tonie Carroll heading in for the tackle π
Should have been a penalty. More SOO BS.
True rugby legend β€οΈπ΅π¬π
Joey was 20kg heavier than Hodgson. Good luck Tallis
I was at the ground when Gordon was sent off, a really bad call by Bill, but the arrogance of him not to check the knock on, decided the match.
Your mums a rig,Gordy. No one cares about your whinging.
One of the most legendary moments in origin history. Gordon is a legendπ―π
Grub. Sooked n sat out the season instead of honouring his contract with St George…. goose
What a grub
Jumper grabber.
Brett Hodgson was a magnificent player.
Best tackle I have seen in my life. Just raw aggression and determination. It was like a lion destroying a gazelle.
same here gordie…wish it Andrew john's! UP UP QLDERZZZβπΏπͺπΏ
Brisbane can thank Brian smith for Gordon
This bloke is an outright legend, on and off the field.
I wish it was Joey too. Simply can't cop him at all.
Tallis would never have been able to do that to Andrew John's. It wasn't a great tackle. Hodgson weighed about 75kgs.
As a veteran I don't like people who say they use drugs because they have mental health problems. I talked to my doctor. It takes 6 to 12 months to successfully diagnose someone with bi polar. But it took him 1 week
So many words to describe the great Gordon Tallis as a player……fearless, tough as a mallee bull, frightening, ferocious and just competitive. As a man he is very humble and such a great role model for any kid wanting to find their way in any sport not just rugby league. I admired him on the field and I admire him off it, he is a real class act π―π
Bill Harrigan was once reviewing a legitimate try by a forward as a video ref solely because Phil Gould was in the next booth commentating and tapped the glass window dividing the two boxes and held up his TAB ticket against the glass showing he had the player as first try scorer and saying "I'm on this !"…..
Bill Harrigan looked at him then immediately proceeded to press the "No Try" button.
Best referee in game…
Pig's arse he was π€£
Gordon was hard az during his playing days.Woulda liked to have seen him play against Gal.
"Rag-dog" lol
You'd never be able to catch Joey! You can barely put a sentence together Tallis
That was a NASTY and typical bloody QLD tackle
Seen him in crowd with his missus at a 90s RnB reunion tour concert took pics and chatted with people. Enjoying the night
Those were the days. I haven't watched the footy for years now, it's just not the same, the administrators have completely ruined the game.
It's not soccer FW!
Gordan is one of those players you don't want to mess with
Rag dog lol its rag doll lmao
So does everyone.
Coked up Joey wouldve broken that tackle or snorted the line as he was dragged over it.
Jesus these back in my day stories from these dinosaurs are gettng rinsed and repeated smh
Gordon was supposed to turn up to my school with Nathan Brown. Nathan turned up, Gordon had better things to do apparently. Still hold it against him, kids should be the focus you make the effort for. Wasn't happy
In This day and age that would be a penalty like all the other stupid penalties. But jersey are too tight to do that now. But the game is getting soft and refs have to much power. Nrl needs to fix itself π
Would be a penalty and sin bin in todays game
Damn this video; I've just had to completely review my opinion on Gorden Tallis. I assumed he was a thug and it turns out he's quite humble and thoughtful.
1:30 one of the greastest moments in origin history. see ya later loserboi π
Watched this as a little boy. Iβm now 30 years old. Thanks for the memories Gordie
In Gordon's defence, the only reason Bill Harrigan isn't the worst referee in rugby league history is because Gerard Sutton exists, and the only reason Gerard Sutton isn't the worst referee in rugby league history is because Ashley Klein exists.
I got issues with Ben Cummins too.
Gordie. I'll. Would not f… with the Lad.
these players certainly look alot younger now then they were still playing footy hahah
Without doubt , Statue Worthy
My 2nd pick in the greatest ever MAROON'S team
Kangaroo's too , for that matter
