Hall says sorry for Staker punch
ABC - April 13, 2008, 6:45 pm

Sydney forward Barry Hall has apologised to West Coast's Brent Staker for punching him during the Swans' 62-point victory at Sydney's Olympic stadium last night.

Staker took no further part in the game after being struck by Hall in the first quarter and the Eagles defender will have scans tomorrow to help determine the extent of his injury.

Hall, who later broke his wrist when he ran into an advertising board on the boundary, says his actions were unacceptable.

"I certainly didn't want it to be that severe, that's for sure," he said.

"Yeah I threw a punch, yeah it hit him, did I want it to hit him as bad and be off for the rest of the game? No."

"But as I said I put myself in that situation, I'll cop whatever comes my way."

Remember you were playing a team that hasnt won at the SCG since 1996. We just dont play well there. The 1st half was alright but the decision making of players like Hayden and Mundy was atrocious. The condition were poor but at least the tough nut in Soloman was great today. The Dockers should have played Murphy and Gilmore today instead of Warnock and Tarrant. The Swans smashed us at the clearances. Most teams do but out centre line was anhialated today.

Barry Hall is a dickhead. I havent seen a punch like that on a player since I think David Rhys Jones. I dont like the Eagles but seriously Staker did nothing to deserve that left hook to the jaw. I would say Hall would go for minimum 8 weeks it was that sort of off the ball punch.

I just wish he had KO'D Adam Hunter instead. I think he (Hunter) is a transvestite. But hopefully he won't be out for too long, but that's just wishful thinking.

you could almost see the lights go out in Stakers eyes as he fell. I've got Hall in Supercoach, so I will need to trade him, don't think I can carry him on the bench for 8 weeks or so

Hall gave the guy what he was asking for, but he shoulda known better.
