“Well come out and put your name to it. Don’t hide behind Melbourne. If they really had an issue, they’d come out and say it.”On Sunday morning Gallen asserted that frustrations boiled over for Bellamy’s play-makers when they botched their last chance to force a victory.
"I just grabbed him and held on to the ball and I heard … Munster started arguing. Munster went straight back at Cam Smith, they all started arguing amongst each other,” Gallen first said on Nine’s Sunday Footy Show. "They obviously never got their call right, which you don’t see from the Melbourne Storm. They are the best in the competition from set starts. Thankfully they ruined that one, anyway!”
Not one to shy away from the spotlight, Gallen highlighted the pitfalls he is forced to navigate on a weekly basis due to the unique position afforded to him as a player and a commentator in the media.“I’m here as a player, I have to judge my peers weekly and play against them, and put myself on show every week after I talk about things like this.
“I can’t believe there is an issue with it at all. All I said was that there was simply an argument, he kicked the ball away.”
