Hill definitely stayed down to buy his side some time before defending a set on their own line.
Chris Hill has been doing this for ten years or more, the refs know he does it, every player in SL knows he does it.
The laughable irony of him and his long, slow walk off in complaint about someone else play acting wasn't lost on me. Hilarious.

Absolutely correct,it's not the first time that Hills indiscipline has cost his team the game.He is forever rubbing his head in the opposing players face in the ground wrestle.Also the wrong player was sin binned at the death,it should have been Levi,he was the one putting Dwyer in a dangerous position by using the grounded Greenwood as a fulcrum,watch it back.With regard to Fages it was a simple clash of heads,watch it in slo mo.The Cudjo try was a blatant obstruction in the run up.All in all a 3/10 performance was good enough to despatch Shudders.
Leaving Hill and Myler for a moment, the direct cause of all the petty cheating going on is all the petty penalties being awarded and the soft yellow cards. Players never used to feign injuries from minor knocks. Not because they were harder, or more honest, but because refs, if they took any notice at all, just laughed. Not a dig at refs btw, they're only doing what their employers are directing them to do.
