So SuA out for season and unable to see the game out due to an illegal act for which we get a penalty, that’s it! No bin, nothing, at least you should be able to bring in your 18th man. Better still IMO the player concerned should be sent off taking the opposition to 16 men but still 13 on the field.

If it was one of the teams in the 8 ...That's exactly what would have happened.

The application of the rules from week to week is clearly inconsistent and favors the teams near the top of the ladder....

The coach has had two years to improve the roster, add some depth signings, identity promising youngsters and introduce them to first grade.

If there isn't enough depth to cover injuries that comes down to his piss poor roster management and recruitment.
