Aloiai & Wakeham had to be seperated after the game.

SMH reporting a clash after the game between Aloiai & Wakeham.

Manly forward Josh Aloiai and Wests Tigers five-eighth Brandon Wakeham had to be separated in the tunnel following a heated argument an hour after full-time of Sunday’s clash at Campbelltown Sports Stadium.

The players were in the tunnel at Campbelltown following Manly’s come-from-behind win over the Tigers when Aloiai approached Wakeham after the playmaker had finished conducting a post-match interview with a reporter.

The conversation began amicably before Aloiai, who had taken exception to Wakeham’s actions on the field, asked the Tigers No.6 to “come around the corner” if he wanted to “talk shit”.

The pair got in each other’s faces as they exchanged words, with Aloiai having to be dragged back into the Manly Sea Eagles dressing room.

Wakeham then popped his head into the Manly sheds to continue the argument Aloiai before he was told to head back into the Tigers sheds.

Sources with knowledge of the situation, talking under the condition of anonymity to protect their identity, told the Herald the argument was believed to be in relation to Wakeham taunting debutant Samuela Fainu when Starford To’a went past Josh Schuster and Fainu to give the Tigers the lead late in the match.

The incident, which occurred in the 63rd minute, sparked a melee that resulted in the rookie’s jersey being removed.

It erupted soon after when Jason Saab crossed for the match-winning try, with Fainu returning serve against Wakeham as Manly celebrated the 22-16 win in front of 10,033 fans at a wet and cold Campbelltown Sports Stadium.

[Winston Churchill]

Makes me like Wakeham even more.

What ever happened to what happens on the field stays on the field? Aloiai mate you’re a grown man, telling people to “come around the corner” if he wants to “talk shit” doesn’t make you tough. It’s behaviour like that that landed your best friend in jail you flog.

 

[Merlot]

very unchristian of him,he should of turned the other cheek and gave the little fella the 1st one,

 

[tony soprano]

Wakham didn't need to give the player a bake considering we haven't won a game the whole season.

Yeah... Went the early crow... No biggie
But Aloioa seems like a real lowlife... something about him

 

[Demps]

Wow, very Christian like behaviour.

A supposed "heavyweight" boxer offering out one of the smallest players in the NRL.

Well done Josh.

 

[Tucker]

Wakeham has a bit of mongrel in him.
We can work with that.

I’m really over the taunting that’s going on in the game lately. It is really unappealing and seems like another step in the whole gangsta theme that seems to be invading the game. There have always been taunters in the game e.g Bob Fulton but it’s becoming epidemic.

 

[Tcat]

As if you'd be offended if anyone from the WTs said anything to you. It's laughable.

He was just going to ask if there was still a job for doing lawns. Why else would he ask to meet out of sight
Wish people had boo”d him as much as woodsy last night. He is becoming a real thug.

Brandon clearly not happy with the length of the grass at Concord.

 

[The Fresh Oil]

Good. Bit of angst in the team is a good thing. Extra points for going into opposition rooms to follow up.

 

[Bellend]

Who cares really that made the news??

And the big front rower inviting the No 6 , around the corner. Stick to your own weight division you big wanker Aloai.

If they were walking up the tunnel after the game then I'd agree with you but JA decided to pull this an hour after the siren when Wakenhan was alone with a reporter.

J.A. Is a Tarzan goes missing in a game and when blokes with a certain skill set make offers to fight him he goes missing., the bloke is a nob jockey of the highest order.

Wouldn't be an issues if a smack on the mouth was still part of the game... Some of these smartarses would shut up real quick

I used to have so much respect for him, I thought he was not just a good player but a quality person. How wrong was I? He really carries on bow like a piece of shit. He was never like that with us was he?
