For me as soon as the onside player plays it.

I heard a different take on this incident during this years World Cup. I always assumed the player just didn’t know the rules. Apparently the players weren’t going to play the game in protest to miss treatment by the government. They eventually changed their minds with threats hanging over their families back home. So they played this game under protest and this was a deliberate attempt by the player to get sent off.

He said it didn’t reach the threshold which I assume he means the force of the tackle.

Am I right in thinking you can’t do it with the knee. I thought it was shin and below.

Absolutely if Saints have lead this they should have a replacement already lined up.

Connected to that last year or the year before I seem to remember a second ban for Nathan Cleary ruled him out of the running for the Dally m medal. Do we know if the RFL have a similar rule for the MOS.

Correction he does sneak in front.

Browns always behind the ball so should be fine.

It works perfectly well in the NRL as I stated. Not as an extra fixture but half the teams involved have to give up a home game. That way it just becomes a normal round.

it won’t work if Magic is an extra round of fixture like now. It is possible if magic is done as part of the season. So 28 rounds and on magic weekend half the teams have to give up a home game one team gets a bye.

I would imagine to stop teams setting the size of the pitch depending on who they were playing.

Ball was in play then. On this occasion tackle was complete. The Wigan player although injured can’t just let go of the ball that should’ve been Hull ball.

Not only that there was clearly a touch by both players in the air the minimum Hull should’ve got is set restart.

26-1 but I’m having another go.

It was a reverse pattern winners went Brazil 62 England Brazil Germany Argentina Italy (middle game) Argentina Germany Brazil France Brazil
