JOHNATHAN Thurston and Nathan Hindmarsh have rekindled their long-running war of words as the Immortal-in-waiting rolled out his best sledge yet.

Thurston has been taunting the former Eels star in interviews for well over 12 months now and Hindy walked into another classic barb from the Cowboys champion on Fox Sports’ Monday Night with Matty Johns.

Taking the microphone for an on-field interview immediately after North Queensland’s hard fought win over Manly, Thurston was asked why he had called Hindmarsh “a dickhead” in a recent chat.

“I thought we buried the hatchet at the start of the year so I’m a bit concerned by the dickhead call the other day,” Hindmarsh said to a chuckle and a dead bat reply from Thurston.

As Hindmarsh hammered his point home, Thurston butted in: “My apologies Hindy, hopefully we can move forward. Have you got a box of tissues for him there?”

That cheeky remark got the sledging into overdrive with Hindy hitting back: “You’ll need some tissues after I put one on your chin.”

It set Thurston up for a punchline that has to go down as his best sledge yet.
