League legend Paul Gallen<\/a> believes Queensland assistant coach Nate Myles<\/a> was "very lucky" to have not been fined by the NRL after he was cautioned for a sideline incident.<\/p>\n

Myles sledged Blues debutant Joseph Suaalii after he was sent off for a high shot<\/a> on Reece Walsh during game one.<\/p>\n

The Roosters star has since been hit with a four-match ban<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Myles however will be back on the sideline for Queensland during game two and Gallen believes his former Origin foe should've known better than sledging the youngster. \ufeff<\/p>\n

"I thought that was ordinary," he said on Nine's 100% Footy<\/em>.<\/p>\n

"Nate's in a privileged position there \ufeffand as we know Nate Myles was a great player and he gave as good as he got on the football field but when you're in a position like he is there you can't let emotion get the better of you and he let emotion get the better of him.<\/p>\n

"If you're going to let emotion get the better of you then you should be sitting behind the fence and sitting in the crowd.<\/p>\n

"I think he's very, very lucky that he wasn't fined, he definitely should've been fined in my opinion.<\/p>\n

"Imagine he had have said that to a Spencer Leniu or Liam Martin or one of the big boys walking off the field. I thought he saw an opportunity to have a go at a young bloke who would've been pretty intimidated by the situation, and he took it, and I thought it was pretty ordinary behaviour.<\/p>\n

"I'd like to think Nate being the bloke he is would regret what he did and I can't believe he wasn't fined."<\/p>\n

Gallen's takedown of Myles continues a storied history between the two after their famous punch up in the 2013 Origin series.<\/p>\n

The incident was a defining \ufeffact in rugby league, with very few punches thrown in the sport ever since.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Gallen clarified his criticism of Myles had nothing to do with their history. \ufeff<\/p>\n

"I saw Nate Myles before the game, shook his hand and said hello. I've got no issue with Nate whatsoever," he said.<\/p>\n

"I played footy with him post that situation and I've said it before … I'm not proud of what happened but it happened and we can't change it. It has absolutely nothing to do with what happened then, it was more than 10 years ago.<\/p>\n

"I just think the position that he's in, he should know better."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
