"Not content with claiming Trent Merrin's "cheap shot'' on Brent Tate summed up NSW's disrespect for his all-conquering team, Queensland captain Cameron Smith compared it with Danny Williams' infamous 2004 king hit that earned a record 18-week ban.
Merrin received one week for the punch in game two, but Smith said it reminded him of ex-Melbourne teammate Williams' sickening NRL career-ending hit on Mark O'Neill nine years ago.
"The last person who threw a punch like that in a game when the bloke wasn't looking got 16 (sic) weeks,'' said Smith after an unchanged Queensland 17 was named.
"It was Danny Williams and I was involved in that game".
