Saints really need something here before halftime.

That Su'A hit is such a fine line.

Compare that to the Josh King on Ilias which ended up being a penalty against Loiero for a tackle off the ball. What's the difference? .01 of a second? I'm fine with it being a penalty and on report but I'm going to more than a one Mississipi before binning a player.




You can’t take all the physicality out of a contact sport without compromising how it’s played. If your going to take the ball so deep into the line to gain the advantage of drawing a defender than you should also be prepared to get tackled from time to time.

The game is completely nullifying defence by Cracking down any forceful contact, penalties for rushed defence inside the 20, protecting kickers even if it’s the slightest contact, penalising defenders for any contact to the ball passer even he’s about to run through them


 
I hate the Rorters but if Manly win I get to hear it from my brother in law........best case scenario draw with both teams stripped of points for fielding 14 players during match.
 
I'm a big Ben Hunt fan, he always gives 100%, seems like a good bloke and he's a pretty handy player.

But deadset how have the Dragons been paying him 1 million (1.1 on zero tackle) a year for the last i have no idea how many years.

What the f**k was McGregor thinking. And the Dragons management to approve it. And to approve it for such a long period.

I'm all for paying a halfback 1 Million a year if his name is Jonathon Thurston or Nathan Cleary.

At the time they signed hunt i would say his Value was 800k max.
 
I am still fuming over that Sua binning.

That was not a sinbin. It was barely a penalty even.
I would have been fine with a penalty at the refs discretion, but would still think it would be a harsh penalty.

Panthers becoming the storm 2.0 slowing down the ruck.


 
Macca might be gone for a while looking at how much pain he was in and how rubbery his arm was on replay.
 
**** man, how did the commentators on Fox not see or mention McC's shoulder/collarbone damn near sticking out of its socket through the jersey?

Or was I imagining it?

George Burgess is still a big unit


 
Ravalawa has such a strong ball return, like Karmichael on steroids.

He did. The look on his face though when the independent doc made him come off was priceless.


 
Did Fish get injured or is Ivan playing silly buggers

This isn't the free flowing league we grew up with.
I know the game has evolved but ffs.
