        That's exactly right. Has zero feel for the game, but would make a good politician reacting to what is in the media.
        Greenberg is way out of his depth on Rugby league knowledge, but once he came out and said what he did last time it was never going to end well for us the second time round.

          My old mate the GHost of Ron Jones made a crucial point..Napa played into the Broncos hands ...Bennet used them via media to bait Napa and it happened hence his silence.

            When,Greenburg,took over i thought it was a poor choice, when Sutton was appointed referees boss i knew the game was in trouble and then to top it off Peter Beattie appeared on the scene.Its the 3 stooges show Larry, Mo and Curly Joe reinvented after all these years.The 3 of them need to go and go quickly imo.

              As annoyed as I feel towards Greenberg and the match review committee for the inconsistency in the rule,the onus is also on Dylan to not make the same mistake twice!

              Greenburg came out after the last game and indicated a charge should’ve been laid,so the Club and Dylan should’ve at least tried to work on his technique to prevent a similar problem happening.

              Now we are one game out from the semis an experienced prop short to rectify last years exit!

                Put it this way has there been a rule change since last incident? if not then the chooks should fight and win the charge ..simple.

                        Then surely you would understand that when you play at speed and high intensity 2 headclashes, 1 caused by sims stepping into him and the other when McCullough dropped his knees late to nearly 90 degrees, shouldn't change the way you've made over 3000 other tackles at the same level. Particularly when your peers name you as the hardest hitter in a landslide vote.

                        Maybe the real issue is broncos players stepping and lowering themselves into contact?

                          I don’t disagree with the fact McCullough dropped into the tackle hence why the head clash looked so bad,I also think the media overreaction magnified the whole situation tenfold!

                          In saying that after the issue and uproar with the Sims tackle earlier in the year,I also believe Dylan is at some fault in relation to his technique..

                          I love his aggression and intimidating factor,but unfortunately he sails close to the wind and if his timing is off a little we end up paying a player to sit on the sidelines at the most important time of the season.

                          Robbo admitted in his press conference a rule had come in since the last game,so surely Dylan was aware of that!

                            I don't know the letter of the law, but the problem with Dylan's technique, what makes it dangerous, is that he goes into tackles not looking where he's going. He launches himself into tackles with his head down. And he launches himself at a level that might hit someone's head.

                            There is an episode of The Simpsons where Homer opens and shuts his mouth, eyes closed, while walking towards a cake, saying 'If you get eaten cake, it's your own fault'. That's pretty much Dylan's argument.

                                You're completely missing the point that he is going in too high. The McCullough tackle was aimed very high, upper chest to to throat region. McCulloch did drop slightly in to the tackle but not much. There is just too little margin for error in that kind of tackle. Onus is on Napa to be more careful, thems the rules.
