Sadly I reckon there will be a market on which game will get a bigger crowd, Q Clash 9 (where one team surely will break their duck) or the International RL Double Header at Robina on Saturday (Fiji v PNG, Samoa v Tonga).

Is it just me but is what Clarko did obvious assault?
Might be time to grow out of that reaction, could have escalated the situation terribly.
Yes he admits he did the wrong thing [though still calling it a push?] but the guy was a dick and deserved it

My lawyer friend said if that vid came across his desk, he'd be pursuing a common assault charge. Take that for what you will.

Your lawyer friend sounds like a greedy softcock in all honesty.

Assault charges? Surely you's are taking the absolute piss.
If the guy was to try to take him to court for assault he would come across looking like a massive campaigner

I'd have probably hit him sooner than Clarko to
& harder :p

Dude was punched in the throat, then throttled. It is quite possibly one of the dumbest things I've seen a sober grown man do. Very lucky he didn't start a brawl.
Sure tell him to **** off or lightly push him away but if I had done something like that I'd fully expect assault charges to be laid.

If you don't want to get punched in the face don't get into other peoples faces.

The bloke should be thankful Clarko didn't force him to eat through a tube for the next fortnight.

Stock standard common assault.

Not that I'm against the actions Clarkson took and the 'victim' is a dickhead, but it was disproportionate and wasn't a defensive push as Clarkson has stated. Just unlucky a camera was rolling.

That's macho bullshit. Responses like that are what get guys glassed at clubs/pubs.
Guy was obviously a drunken arsehole but all Clarko had to do was act like an adult, instead he reacted like a child.

Typical Clarkson. He has anger problems. He acted poorly and then tried to bullshit everyone about how hard he reacted. If he had of just come clean from the start it was a non issue.

The drunk bloke was a total fukctard but if everyone went around hitting pests in the throat where would it stop.

I laugh at all his mates in the media, and a special mention to Jeff Kennet here, trying to tell us we should feel sorry for Clarko and how wonderful he is. Bunch of sycophants.
