    It certainly wasn't out there and over the top, so much so that being in the Red Zone down the other end of the ground, I didn't know anything about it until I read it on RWO.

    If he really was trying to be a lair, it was a massive fail...

    Cheeky.....

    I'm pretty quick these days to give White a gobful, but I didn't think there was anything wanky about the bike rev, thought it was pretty good actually.

    Bring back Fev and Adam Heuskes

    It was only a little rev, and it was directed at his team mates, not the stands; kind of like "I am back on my bike". Anything that gets him on track will do me.

    Lindsay Thomas, arms out demanding adulation after two months of 3 goals 44 behinds 28 OOBOTF? Good luck to him, he's had a tough time of it. Well done.

    Hanners' first goal anyone?

    I saw nothing wrong with the rev, it was just Jesse caught up in the excitement of the game, one thing our boy could not be accused of is being a grand stander

    Almost as bad as the North muscle flexing phase from a few years ago.

    Actually, for all his numerous flaws, White is the ultimate team player. He celebrates teammates' goals harder than he does his own. With that in mind, the rev would have almost certainly been a celebration of the team finally clicking into gear and storming home with the win. And I don't think anybody could fairly begrudge him that.

    There is someone else out there who treasures this film!!!!!
