how you going to fake what happened to RTS :lol::crazy: was RTS faking

He obviously wasn't but how the f**k is the referee supposed to play doctor. He can't diagnose real injuries and fake injuries.

Just like when players fake things to get a video replay. It isn't in the refs job discription to diagnose players.

FML SKD

What a f**king genius.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

it was an accident, it is no advantage to anyone, no penalty needed

wat :?

The defender forced an error by contact to the head. The ball carrier was upright and in the process of making the tackle via poor technique he smashed him in the head. Doesn't matter if it's accidental. Not saying it's the crime of the century or should go on report but it's a much fairer result than a knock on.

 

[chrisD]

Such a great game.

Finally

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

RTS contributed to the head clash with the last second step.

It was cleary accidental, which has never been a penalty

wtf

The ball carrier can put on any footwork he likes. It's the defender's responsibility not to smash him in the face.

 

[BunniesMan]

Jamie Lyon is still the best centre in the world.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

I'm not even that strong on this point but can't believe anyone can't see the other side of the argument

 

[BunniesMan]

Bleeding on the eye, that's no good. Hospital for the kid.

It shouldnt be a turnover I agree but a penatly is ludicrous.

Accidental head knocks have never been a penalty because you'd just be encouraging the ball carrier to lead with the head.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Cordner not passing and SKD being a spaz could be a couple of big game-changing moments

Not as good as joakim noah

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Accidental head knocks have never been a penalty because you'd just be encouraging the ball carrier to lead with the head.

But if you don't penalise the flying defensive headbutt you're not encouraging defenders to lead with the head?

 

[Aragorn]

not a penalty, but the opposition shouldnt be given the ball in an attacking position.

 

[ceagle]

Not as good as joakim noah

Gasol is better

 

[BunniesMan]

It shouldnt be a turnover I agree but a penatly is ludicrous.

Allowing some knock ons opens an awful can of worms.

A knock on is a knock on, the game does not need yet another grey area.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Sbwwwwwwwwww

 

[Aragorn]

wow - all class.

 

[Snappy]

The defender had lined up a good hit, and the last second step contributed to the accidental head clash.

It was an accident. Never been a penalty, never will be. Now go wash the sand out of your vag and get over it.
