It feels like he’s going to need to reinvent his game in some ways or else it will keep happening. He is a cracking player, all effort and will to win but he’s putting other players at risk with the small ‘detail’ I’m sure goes in to his work. They’ve done all this work to stop things like punching but I’m sure a player would rather be punched in the face, than sit out of the game for 6 to 12 months (as McGillvary and Cooper have done). Kaide Ellis got 5 games for a minor scuffle last season and Knowles got to play in a Grand Final, a week after an awful lookimg challenge on Chris Atkin.
