Will it or should it go to Disciplinary ?
It was like Billy Slaters in the GF semi final 2 years ago
Referee mimicked the shoulder charge position after blowing for the penalty. In the current rule there is no provision for an accidental or safe shoulder charge so an immediate sin bin should have been given.
Also in NRL the rule on shoulder charges was strengthened after the Slater incident so that the excuse of "what else could I have done to stop the try", as he used in his defence, no longer applies.
