I was driving home & listening to 2gb during the first half and they mentioned vinnies-valu( or whatever it is) attempting to leap over the defence but he led with the knee yet nothing came from it. they were saying at the time it should be a penalty at least. any thoughts on it?
also nelson the bali blue-er and his spearing at the legs of attackers- i saw him do it twice and the second hurt keppie. he does throw out the arm but to me it is obvious what he is trying to do - lead with the shoulder into the legs of whoever he targets, similar to watching the nfl defenders take down the ball runner(although they lead with their helmet). will the nrl do anything before someone gets hurt or wait until a serious injury occurs?
also how does a player who has been treated prior for a cut to the head get to stop the play when the opposition is attacking for 2 or 3 minutes to be treated when he is upright and more than capable to walk off to the side so the game can go on
i know that is three questions but the last one was an add on
