Reece Walsh certainly isn't the most humble player either, I'm from QLD aswell haha. In saying that, when a player gets a fractured face no fans should ever boo him/them, laugh at him when he gets smashed.
Why? I cheer when we legally hurt opposition players. Don't wish for it but I'll take it. I laughed each time we KO'd a Bulldog on 1st tackle.

If I had a nickel for every time we knocked out a bulldog on the first tackle, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. Right?

With that Injury to Walsh‘s face, Cam McInnes can now take his rightful place as the league’s sexiest man.

I like to think Cam was at home crying with laughter as Reece did everything he could to hide from the cameras

It obviously didn't have any impact on the game - but I'm not a fan of what happened on the final play of the game last night.

For starters the ptb happening 10 in from touch has some potential for teams to deliberately take the piss in a tied game. Pretty hard to kick a fg from that position.

I think that rule still has some wrinkles that need ironing out.

I'm so over the inconsistent officiating in general.

Watching last night I was comfortable saying the crackdown on taking out markers was well and truly over.

Then all of a sudden he starts calling tigers back for it in the last 10 minutes?

Yeah - a lot of garbage reffing in that game. This one though I am moreso thinking it's not the ref but the rule that needs a look.
