You are not allowed to attack the head. It is in the rules of the game.

I'll admit to not having a clue what a shoulder charge in this game is. No-one in the game seems to. The game has a serious problem with this on the eve of the finals. But a tackle to the head is quite another matter. The tackle was quite nasty. I'm absolutely certain he'll get charged and rubbed out for it. I'd be flabbergasted if that does not happen.

And why was the ref saying to Dave Simmons, as Penrith captain "I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt" as he gave Canberra possession? Because he wasn't sure who the Penrith captain was (in the absence of Soward)?

It was accidental lol settle the f**k down.
He fell into it, he will play next week, He didn't attack the head.

So knocking a player out with a shoulder to the head is now a great hit. And thinking it's unreasonable for players to cheer it and not show concern for a player that is clearly injured is sooking.

The only thing classier than the Raiders players are their fans. Even if it was a legal hit, it's disgusting that no one cares about an injured player and are more concerned with cheering the tackle instead.

I dislike Billy Slater but respected the hell out of him for his immediate concern for Wolfman hurting his neck. Most players show that they are decent human beings when there's an injured player. Raiders showed that they aren't. As did their fans.

Been really impressed with our defence tonight. Apart from the obligatory Seg dummy half try, it's been rock solid and they've had plenty of shots at our line.

They are all accidental. There is careless, reckless and deliberate. All of them except for deliberate are accidental.

I think you're overreacting. It was a tough hit in a tough game with tough players. If you want to see that sort of thing the game should only be played by doctors so that they can properly assess each collision and determine the best possible reaction to display in a split second incident
