Bit O/T at the moment, but was watching a rerun of the Souths v St George game this morning.

Has anyone seen Inglis' "tackle"? Deary me today - on report just doesn't cover it ...

[Blind side johnny]

Phew, is that all!

I thought you were going to say he'd signed for next season too.

I watched the game and a shoulder charge is not a tackle,real bad one this.Any players who commit to this act are only out to catch the ball carrier unaware and put him out of the game.There has been some real bad injuries over the last few weeks due to this and it's time this practice was banned.

Pretty impossible to 'ban' it completely without creating a massive grey area that would cause plenty of confusion for both players and officials. Only way to combat it would be to say that any 'shoulder' tackles that result in contact with the HEAD of an opposition player will result in a hefty ban.

It's not only the head Harold,one of the Bulldogs forwards,Kasiano,received some cracked ribs in a shoulder charge the previous week.The game is hard enough without having to contend with this, when you can't defend yourself.

bad tackle...if thats what you can call it
lucky the lads still breathing

any news on a ban for inglis yet ???

[S.T.R]

Inglis got a three game ban
no way was that a shoulder charge, I watched the game live and in replays he clearly lifts the forearm / elbow in the contact nasty

[coolie]

RL gone soft

Saw the Dons v Workington game and there was a blatant trip by both sides,the first one didn't even get a penalty.
