No sin bin for shoulder charge to head in Eels v Knights game?

[rented tracksuit]

I agree with the second part. And not all. Roosters fans are hypocrites.. Just the ones on the pen! It's the same as people saying James Graham should have been sent for leading with the head in the grand final against south's. He broke burgess cheek bone and wasn't sent. People argued about it. But if south's had of lost that's all we would have heard.

Actually, that was also souffs bias like what had been going on all year. Why did Burgess not go to the HIA after that collision? These days, you could kiss a player on the cheek and he’s gotta go for an automatic 15 mins. Funny they left him out there after such a bad knock.

Both Napa and James Graham head clashes were accidents in a heavy body contact sport . Who in there right mind would lead with their head it goes against your natural instincts to protect yourself.

Simple. It's not the Broncos playing and theres no Sutton or Klein.

Napa, Graham and Myles all lead with their heads in tackles at times. The top of your head is the hardest part of your body isn't it?
When players lead with their head I think it is fair to say it is dangerous.....

The first one where he broke his cheek looked accidental. There was another later in the game where he clearly led with the head and looked to make contact. He was after blood that night. Was good to watch.

Because like most head clashes, they aren't seen until you look at a slow motion replay. And he got up straight after and played the ball. Yes he had a head knock but he demonstrated no signs of concussion. Hardly a sign of south's bias but believe what you want. Id be annoyed if every high tackle resulted in an HIA. Would ruin the game.

The games already ruined. It’s also not about showing signs of concussion. Plenty of players have been ‘taken’ from the field for HIA without showing signs of concussion. The game is constantly being reviewed during play and yes, they knew about it. It was a fairytale the NRL needed to have and yes, I believe there were definite forces at play in 2014.

That would suck, but I think they've already ruined the game.

Hi PTB. When you lean forward into a tackle, where’s your head supposed to go?

Only Napa is binned for “foul play”.

Give it a rest.

Surely Kaylan Ponga deserves a suspension, he certainly led with the head for the Eels consolation try last night
