He’s concussed as all **** but they reported later in game everything looking promising and no apparent permanent/serious injuryYeah I saw the player in the end, is he good though?

He uses his arms as bumpers and high knees running style into contact like most, especially props. But he's ****ing ginormous so his bumpers hit higher & you'd have a death wish going low before he was slowed down a bit.I saw a couple of weeks ago in one of those player question segments - who is the toughest person to tackle? I remember someone saying Nelson, hes all knees and elbows. I dont know how he gets away with running with his elbow cocked like that, seen it contact a few times in every game the last few weeks. I dont think the knee was deliberate, but he bloody launched it into a falling player, could have killed him tbh
Haha very similar to what I wrote at same time.He uses his arms as bumpers and high knees running style into contact like most, especially props. But he's ****ing ginormous so his bumpers hit higher & you'd have a death wish going low before he was slowed down a bit.
NRL has made it abundantly clear all responsibility is on the defence & the ball carrier can do things they can't like shoulder charge or come in with raised forearms. If the ball carrier slips & hits the tackler's hand it's a penalty. If the ball carrier backs into a tackle & puts himself in prime position for pressure on his neck it's not his fault. It's broken for sure.
If he blood launched it into him it sounds deliberate...
Don't think it was. DWZ ricocheted mid-air off someone into NAS's path as he was chasing through on his kick. Nasty accident that if it wasn't something NAS's size would probably have a busted leg too.
The whole 'when is a tackle complete' is a massive grey area. Sometimes you can gang tackle a guy 12m backwards mid field but if it's 3m into touch or in-goal you're pinged. Then sometimes not.Haha very similar to what I wrote at same time.
Another that annoys me favouring ball carrier… if they offload at or just after held call they just get it back, if defence execute a clean one on one strip with same timing it’s a penalty… dumb
Raiders forward Corey Horsburgh apologises for disrespectful act during Last Post
Slow news day.FMD, how hard is it to control your stupidity for 1 F’n minute!
You don’t have an issue with it?Slow news day.
Sure, but do I think it's worthy of a news story? Not really.You don’t have an issue with it?
You dont think he could have refrained from blowing a bubble for like 1-2 mins?
He doesn't strike me as a deep thinker. I expect none of his cognitive power was being directed into 'do I or do I not blow bubbles currently' if he was already doing it when he ran out. That is to say, more likely just lack of thought than any intentional disrespect.You don’t have an issue with it?

Wouldn't have been written if that bloke hadn't been punched in the head earlier in the roundFMD, how hard is it to control your stupidity for 1 F’n minute!
Absolutely none.You don’t have an issue with it?
Highly doubt it was a conscious decision either way.You dont think he could have refrained from blowing a bubble for like 1-2 mins?
Agreed.Sure, but do I think it's worthy of a news story? Not really.
Andrew Gee gets dumped for his officiating of the Dragons/Roosters game.Any other game, 2poo gets canned. Inconsistencies in the game pisses me off.
Adam Gee even LOL and I think that is a complete joke he got dumped. I think Gee is one of the better refs running around and if they are talking solely about the Daniel Tupou incident, it was the bunker that stuffed up not Gee. They had a look at it and determined that it was penalty sufficient when it was a sin bin offence for sure.Andrew Gee gets dumped for his officiating of the Dragons/Roosters game.
Agree. Once play stops and there are replays it becomes the bunkers responsibility.Adam Gee even LOL and I think that is a complete joke he got dumped. I think Gee is one of the better refs running around and if they are talking solely about the Daniel Tupou incident, it was the bunker that stuffed up not Gee. They had a look at it and determined that it was penalty sufficient when it was a sin bin offence for sure.
On the other hand, Klein who was the senior bunker official, not only gets to keep his job but gets an extra match in the bunker and gets a trip to Darwin to referee a match.
Something doesn't quite sit right with all of this.
Isn’t he now the roosters bunker official this week?Adam Gee even LOL and I think that is a complete joke he got dumped.
