Good to see some pushback on something that could ruin the sport as an entertainment spectacle and therefore put the sport as a whole at risk (on field action is historically the main if not only thing we beat other sports at)
Nobody wants to see players concussed and risking their future health but there has to be a happy medium. Also the sport simply doesnt have enough players to have several sat in the stands each week, its not Premier League football where teams have a massive cast of reserve, youth and players out on loan to use in emergencies.

Its not just this season.
The officals cannot keep impartial and let little grudges develop, its been going on for seasons and why alot of fans get disillusioned with the sport.
Its not just cullen , youve got the inpet Robert Hicks in a top position too.
The whole setups an absolute farce. Its not fit for purpose. Im at the point where i wouldnt actually mind thr NRL taking over for us

I really don’t get the club not appealing the grading of Ese’ese charge when both the on field snd video ref clearly deemed it low end force. So either they made a poor decision or the MRP have been way over the top in the grade to be do far apart from the actual match officials on the night.
Personally don’t think as a club we appeal enough and are too soft.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

I wonder what Kendall & Moore are thinking , Two first grade refs decision overturned by a out of touch former player . We all know Kendall gives out more cards than Clintons, so if he couldn't find anything malicious in the tackle , There has to be a element of doubt we could have exploited .
