It’s another case of does the sport really take head injuries seriously enough. If you just concede a penalty for something like this it’ll never leave out game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s lovely, however, the post I replied to was in relation to the lack of onfield action by officials, of which the Faraimo incident was another example of and was a shocker that he “got away with” on the day.

A yellow card would have been a reasonable response. the only issue (and it would be a cop out for the ref to use it) is who do you bin... as all 3 seemed to lose control of the tackle... do you bin the 3rd man as it was stable till he got involved or the guy holding him on the left who seemed to be the on in control but lost it... etc Someone should have gone for 10 though for sure.

Cheadle Leyther Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 The Wakefield player who started the resulting fracas should also have been binned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue that the bloke on the left, has a duty of care, and should (with a little time to think) have held the ball carriers head up to protect his head and neck. The third man in, lifted his legs way above his waist and that, as far as I know, is now a well defined example of foul play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave T Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I thought that was a pretty nasty one, often players let go when they have somebody in an awkward position, but that didn't appear to happen here. I'd have given a red card and a few game ban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As distinct from trying to ensure more control in trying to ensure a safe landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rules are quite clear though. The tackle meets the definition of a dangerous throw, and should be penalised. The NRL guidelines for a sin bin regarding dangerous throws are where a tackled players head/neck makes forceful contact with the ground. In the NRL therefore, this would meet the criteria for a sin bin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
