Well yeah that’s the other part that I’m confused about? He’s definitely doing the crocodile roll below the knee, I thought they were coming down hard on that.Actually leg twists have been punished before haven’t they? Almost certain they are against the rules.
You could be half sarcastic it is hard to tell, but it's the way the NRL panders to him that irks me. He's grubby enough as it is but it makes it worse having to listen to the commentators stick up for him in the stupidest circumstances along with the NRL protecting him. I thought this incident was probably an accident in fairness, but kneeing Walsh the other week, nope (and I expressed my thoughts back then too so I'm not just salty the Rabbitohs flogged us, we sucked). Plenty of other ones I can't be bothered thinking of currently. He made a few blatant high tackles on the weekend... none called. He also gets tackled on the weekend and has a tantrum and gets our player on report for an incident that he didn't even get charged for in the end. The whole 'untouchable' vibe probably isn't his fault, it's the referees calls, but overall, when added to his arrogance etc. it's painful to watch really.Hating him just because he got kicked in the face is a bit harsh, no?

Look the rules and calls suck half the time as it is without referees also playing 'favourites' with players.
To be honest it will be refreshing to see Campbell in the side again anyway. Adds something different.
This isn’t NRL but damn.
They were looking down the barrel of a poor year before this. This could be disaster levels.Knights hooker Jayden Brailey could be out for a big part of the season. he picked up a suspected Achilles injury at training on saturday
Especially if Ponga talks and rumours start to hit the airwaves.They were looking down the barrel of a poor year before this. This could be disaster levels.

I noticed a post elsewhere that had O'Brien as safe... I'd say he's under some pretty big pressure... probably more than Kevvie
No Pearce, no Watson, Braily out long term. OoftKnights hooker Jayden Brailey could be out for a big part of the season. he picked up a suspected Achilles injury at training on saturday
