[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 148389"] Steyn`s reaction to the whole issue, as published in Die Burger this morning, translation by myself: "This was a big load of crap. The guy showed the referee that his finger was bitten. [b]It was a small mark and could just as easily have been caused by someone`s studs.[/b] I`m not really relieved. I`m a little bit disappointed in the Tongan player who made an untrue allegation. I`m glad that it`s over, but I`m still disappointed. It (the citing procedure) was a little difficult, because my dad was upset. We were all upset. I`m upset that a player can make accusations like that. [b]He hasn`t even apologised to me.[/b] [b]Everyone now knows about this citing. Now I`ve got this label as a dirty player. I just want to play, enjoy it and win.[/b]" Right, so seeing as our esteemed Australian friends have found that it was the "honourable" thing for Vaka to suddenly summise that he was bitten, without considering how such an untrue allegation will affect the player in question, this is Steyn`s reaction towards being labeled, incorrectly, as a dirty player. And as for that comment "Since when have South Africa been this huge honourable rugby nation...", :lol2tn: well my friend, your arguments immediately loses all credibility, due to your obvious prejudice.
