@Snake I agree there are many ridiculous penalties (or penalties ridiculously not awarded) but I'm not too stressed about the rules around player safety. AFB copped a couple of weeks for what looked like a very soft shoulder, whereas Burgess got away with one on DCE. If they were consistent it wouldn't look so bad. Some lifting tackles look very innocuous but on the other hand if a blanket ban prevents another Alex McKinnon it's a good thing. Taking legs of the kicker, tackling the catcher in the air, sin bin for punching, doesn't bother me. the game is just as physically tough now as ever, we don't need the cheap shots to make it worth watching. Just my opinion.
