Just listened to Mase and Scope's poddie. Love it!!! Some Drongos fan came in and talked shyte via their comments over an extended period of time so the boys talked back. Mase roasted the guy big time... loved it!
Side note (I didn't realise it) they mentioned that Arthurs got ruled out for a week despite passing his HIA because he 'appeared rattled on the field' and the doctor decided it's safest if he misses the full 11 days. What a quality outcome. Hate to say it but he clearly milked a penalty there and then used it to get a free interchange... I was pretty pissed at the time. It's not a 'punishment' but I love how he can go off, get the free (milked) penalty, take the free interchange and then be told 'suck shyte... you're on the sideline next week because your acting was good enough to get a penalty so it's good enough to convince the officials that you were concussed'. Commonsense IMO... hopefully makes a few other players think twice about milking penalties.
