Yes, by comparing the two. You wouldn't have mentioned the Hodges incident if you didn't think it worthy of comparison.I didn't compare the tackles. I made one mention was was awarded a penalty, the other one didn't. I asked if the rule had been changed.
_Johnsy said:I suggest you watch the Hodges ankle again. Are you in the habit of blatant lying or just cannot honestly see what happened. As you will see Hodges effort was a cheap shot he continued to run from 15m -20m away and deliberate contact was made up around the head (albeit secondary). Soward dropped his shoulder into the players upper torso (with ugh less force then hodges), nil contact with his head. Not even close.

Come on, show me anywhere in that video where Hodges hits Morris in the head. It simply did not happen. Are you in the habit of concocting fabrications, or are you just always in fantasy land?
I not concerned with changing anyone's opinion. I stated that Soward's effort on Beal was silly and out of frustration - that opinion remains.
Again - both were voluntary tackles. Both put on a shot where a hand on the player was all that was needed. One had the tick of approval from Dragons fans, the other is apparently an "attacking deliberate high shot".
:crazy:
