You'd pay him to do nothing? Can I piss you off in any way and get that deal?I'd sign him to a contract to let him rot in the stands for the whole duration, but that's my vindictive self talking.
Not being a smart arse mate but what do you think in hindsight Sims should have done different (considering Tracey was falling).Sims 4 matches.
Thai tackle was comparable to the one that put my son in hospital last week. Worth 4 games in NRL. Penalty sufficient in u13's apparently.

I think he should be expected to put himself in a "tackling" position. Bend your back and knees etc.Not being a smart arse mate but what do you think in hindsight Sims should have done different (considering Tracey was falling).
Maybe tackle with more a catching motion (Ie more of an arm reaching across to wrap the player up) instead of putting on a hit with the upper arm?
I'm really struggling to see where the line is between accidental and failing in duty of care.
Hope you son is OK mate.

good example and glad to hear the boy is all goodI think he should be expected to put himself in a "tackling" position. Bend your back and knees etc.
I think either of the following would make Sims less responsible.
1) If Sims is attempting that tackle with his back bent, both knees bent, and trying to contact Tracey on or under the ball, or
2) If he is moreso attempting a "wrapping" motion, like you said above.
If you go in to a tackle with a straight back and your shoulder pointed directly at a bloke's chest and you miss by 8 inches for whatever reason, that's on you. People fall over in Rugby League all the time. Your tackle technique should account for that.
This is not how a tackling player should approach the ball carrier.

My son is ok now btw. Probably won't play again this season but back at training tonight and able to start doing light jogging.
Mich Moses retired?Paul Kent is the biggest WANKER in the game. Full Stop.

What has he said now?Paul Kent is the biggest WANKER in the game. Full Stop.
Does it matter? Lol. Actually I'm curious too.What has he said now?
I reckon before each show they work out who are going to argue and defend each topic. There are always opposing views.He was going off on NRL360, defending his mate, Ricky.
I think you're right.I reckon before each show they work out who are going to argue and defend each topic. There are always opposing views.
Raiders coach Ricky Stuart will reportedly be suspended for one game and slapped with a $20,000 fine for his “weak-gutted dog” spray directed towards Panthers player Jaeman Salmon.
