Cat of the Week - Contains Spoilers

[Big Pete]

Did Archer blow his whistle before Hodges came in?

 

[Bucking Beads]

He was entitled to. Get over it. Morris could've passed it instead of being a crybaby

And you know if coxy says this it was all good.

Haha, I must admit, I was expecting Coxy to absolutely lay into Hodges about that!

 

[Coxy]

It's rugby league FFS

 

[Bucking Beads]

Or is it wrestling with a bit of rugby league chucked in?

 

[Aeetee]

Remember when Gutlessbeal did it to Fitler, but drove in with his head...good time good times. And agree with the not much in it. I know its a what iff, but what if Hodgo went over and lay a finger onhim and just as he did he passed it with no winger and nothing but space.

 

[Dexter]

F2ck them, if they are going to have players lay down to get an advantage don't expect anything less when you're on the ground, it's too hard to tell when they're acting

 

[Porthoz]

There was no need for that from Hodges, especially since it wasn't Soward, Cooper, Hornby or that stain Scott. And I'm pretty sure it fired up the dragqueens too...

Boyd stayed down tonight when tacken high to milk the penalty, but was proud to see parker struggle to get up and get on with playing the ball when he was. (possibly a broncos biased post)

I wasn't far from the Hodges tackle on Morris.

At first it looked like Morris grabbed his knee, then it was his ankle.

 

[Kaz]

Let's be honest, heaps of players would have done the same thing.

It wasn't an illegal tackle.

I couldn't believe it when watching the replay - when Parker cops the same sort of hit as Boyd and is a bit groggy, the ref not only doesn't take a second look at it but he also kept yelling "get up Corey" at him!!! That pissed me right off.

The refs in general pissed me off last night but you couldn't be more right on that. You would think the way that little pussy cat Boyd dived that at the very least we would have got a penalty for a worse hit but Parker isn't a pussy like Boyd to feign injury.

Very pathetic and weak move by hodges imo. If morris had just stayed down i could understand, but it was obvious to everyone else that morris was in trouble once creagh put his arms up. Poor guy broke his leg and here hodges is, jumping on him, and not only jumping on him, but going in aggressively. Low act

 

[Coxy]

Pfffft. Had the ball. Not held. Play on.

 

[Kaz]

All the people b!tching about the Hodges tackle, move on.

If Morris passed the ball & the Dragons scored, you would be b!tching that he should have done something.

Ref didn't call time off, so it was play on.

 

[john1420]

I have watched the hodges on morris incident several times now and I hope i'm not being biased - to me it looked like morris was preparing to play on, be that a pass or what ever. i don't see how hodges in the heat of the battle in the space of a couple of seconds could have been sure the guy was badly hurt. he had to tackle him. nothing in it

For all Hodges knew, Creagh could have had his arms up to say, he needed to come off.
