That dangerous tackle call on Taufua was a nail in the coffin of rugby leagues toughness. The refs should be hanging their heads in shame
Has anyone else noticed there has been a real lack of genuine blow out score lines of recent yrs?Yrs gone by you'd see a few fair dinkum floggings like one team scoring 50 or 60,but of late there hasn't been any.i too wonder if CH9 and the NRL have given refs an edict to even games upBoth those calls were part of the 'get the team losing back in the game' policy that the NRL introduced to keep scores close
I have no doubt, it happens every week. Last weekend the Cows were cruisin at half time and up 18-Nil. The second half starts and there is penalty after penalty to Cronulla until it was 18-12 and by then the momentum had shifted so badly the Cows couldn't stop it. It happens every week and I for one am sick of it.Has anyone else noticed there has been a real lack of genuine blow out score lines of recent yrs?Yrs gone by you'd see a few fair dinkum floggings like one team scoring 50 or 60,but of late there hasn't been any.i too wonder if CH9 and the NRL have given refs an edict to even games up
Agree. I'm not aware of any injuries from today's game so hopefully we will have the same 17 next week.

1 of the worst things you can do these days is get out to a 10 point lead early. It is sad what they are doing to the game, I watched a half of origin footy from 1994 this afternoon and it is such a different game and not all in the positive direction either
I think the tackle on Killer was way worse where he was lifted and had his head slammed into the ground and that wasn't even that badBoth those calls were part of the 'get the team losing back in the game' policy that the NRL introduced to keep scores close
No it's half life 3!!!Channel NEIN.....1...
The NRL..... 2....

Illuminati... Confirmed!!!
And didn't incur anything. Well done Toddley Kleinberg and your little muppet offsider.I think the tackle on Killer was way worse where he was lifted and had his head slammed into the ground and that wasn't even that bad
I'm over making excuses for our mob. We shoulda/coulda won that one by 30+. But we didn't. It was the same crap lazy display from the usual forwards that let us down again and again. Right on their try line and poor undisciplined play. Lazy tackles that give penalties. We need a clean out of about 5 players. I won't be miserable and put names up but if you aren't completely one-eyed you would know who from the last 2 months. Fantastic that we got that win but they make my pacemaker look like shorting out numerous times!
