BRENT Tate has cruelly been told to harden up after his heartfelt admission of being frightened when he was cartwheeled into the turf during Origin One.
Former NSW enforcer Steve Roach delivered the outrageous comments, while his partner in crime Benny Elias nominated the QRL as Australia's biggest whingers.
Roach claimed a "little headbutt" was more dangerous than flipping a player at full speed and the Tate incident was "one of those things that happens in rugby league".

State of Origin II promises to be nasty after the provocative statements.
The Blues took only 30 minutes after their deserved Origin I victory before they began whingeing about the referees and now they are even trying to have Shayne Hayne sacked for Origin II.
New South Wales are apparently outraged that Queensland dared to protest about Josh Reynolds escaping suspension for his lifting tackle on Tate, who has a long history of neck injuries and is one of the great servants of the code.

Only weeks after Alex McKinnon's tragic spine injury, rugby league stakeholders are still failing to grasp the fact that dangerous throws must be eradicated before another serious incident.
"I saw where Tatey came out saying he had never been in a more frightening place or whatever. Please," Roach says in today's The Daily Telegraph.
"Yes, he was put in an awkward position. But in no way was it intentional, anyone could see that. In fact, I'd go as far as to say there were a lot more dangerous things in that game.
"Some of the stuff around the ruck, knees, elbows, little headbutts ... but this is a game of Origin football, it's supposed to be hard.

"Why try to rub young Josh Reynolds out of the next game for something that was quite obviously one of those things that happens in rugby league?''
Elias claimed the Queensland Rugby League's measured reaction to the bizarre downgrading of Reynolds dangerous throw, was embarrassing.
"It's like these Queenslanders, they just don't know how to be graceful in defeat," Elias said. "I've been around rugby league, around sport, a long, long time now and I've never known anyone to whinge in defeat quite like the QRL. It's embarrassing.

"Truly, there is no one worse in Australian sport.''
Queensland State of Origin enforcer Greg Dowling blasted Elias for being a persistent whinger himself.
"Benny should just shut up," Dowling said. "He whinges every year, usually about Origin eligibility or something.
"NSW are the ones who started the eligibility nonsense. They started all the drama.''
