In a spectacular display of sporting aggression, NSW's attempt to rattle Reece Walsh backfired spectacularly.
Joseph Sua'ali'i's questionable tackle on Walsh wasn't just a slight misjudgment in the heat of the moment - it was a deliberate assault that could have easily knocked two heads off.
The sheer force behind the blow even shocked tough guys like Nate Myles, known for his own head-on-head battles.
It was evident that NSW had set their sights on Walsh from the get-go, but their execution was way off the mark.
Sua'ali'i's reckless actions left no doubt that the Blues had a clear strategy to rattle the Queenslander.
