As for the press conference, they said it was Hall's idea.
I doubt that.
The idea came about to show some remorse and possibly avoid being absolutely slammed for a 12 week holiday.
If that was Halls ised and intention, then good on him, but I suspect it was someone else's isea and as part of the idea was to say that it was Hall's idea.
If you have the idea of what I am sayingThe difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.Comment

I would suggest that Hall genuinely felt bad about what he has done and wanted to let everyone know that he would cop whatever came his way for it.
Simple as that.

I don't understand what you are saying, the press confrence will have absolutely no bearing on what either the match review panel or tribunal give him as they have pre determined penalties they must follow.

So any remorse will be helpful.Comment

Roos said in the interview on MMM linked elsewhere that Hall had injured his hamstring earlier in the night and apparently his rather animated appearing conversation in the sheds at half time was to ask him if he was still okay to play. Roos jumping in to answer it (the question was directed at Hall) almost seemed a little "awwww crap, I knew I didn't prep the witness for something!"Comment

The press conference was just shown on Fox Sports News. From previous posts it sounded like Barry was just going through the motions of an apology but seeing him saying it, he did seem genuine. He wasn't over emotional in it, but he said it was very ordinary, he had no excuse and as he inappropriately put it, he will "cop it on the chin" whatever the tribunal decide. No ifs or buts he'll take the punishment. The current specuation is 10 to 12 weeks.There is no spoonComment
