No you are the one saying it is a non reportable offense, you made that statement multiple times.

I never said it was a non reportable offence I said each should be judged on their own merits and the claim that attacking the legs is automatically a reportable offence.

You are painful. Read my posts properly before engaging me in another discussion, what a waste of time.

Shattered for Reynolds. As great as the likes of Inglis and Gurgess are, he's THE player for Souths. Provides the structure, the direction and the kicking game that unless some kid for North Sydney or U20's has, they'll miss and it's probably fair to put a black line through back to back in 2015.

The upside is that Inglis can finally do enough to deserve the constant praise.

lol at the reactions in here. People obviously don't remember tony caines injury amongst other, the damage that can be done diving at the legs is horrendous. There's a reason it's a penalty.

Same as when shoulder charges were still legal. There's a great risk in using them. Sure, it can be a great hit or it could be a great charge down, but if you f**k up you can really hurt someone and easily give away a penalty by a dangerous act. Gotta cop that when it happens.

Then utterly rubbish behaviour from the fans.

Shame, over 40K on a wet day and a pretty tough game of footy marred by dickhead crowd behaviour.

Winning without your hooker for half the game and your best performing forward for the back end of it is pretty impressive from Souths though.

Klemmer is really maturing. It's great to see a big fella realise that he is bigger and stronger than most players.
next minute...

Argument? It's a statement of fact. Graham took out Reynolds legs. That is a penalty. Correct call was made. Where is the problem?


The video ref chiming in and awarding the penalty is the problem

The same reason the video ref doesn't award penalties whenever contact in made with the head

FMD.

How hard is it to understand that the on field ref asked the video ref to review the incident? The video ref didnt "chime in" as you put it, they were asked for their opinion and gave it.

You know that blood flows right? Blood being on his face does not actually mean he was cut there.

The blood flowed around his ear and onto his right cheek. Morris's foot was at best within a couple inches of the left side of Luke's face
Your such a biased tool Anish you really make yourself sound stupid.

That's not the point I'm making

You think a blanket "any contact after a charge down" is worth a penalty from the video ref, they're not

They should be treated like the way video ref look at high tackles.

If the on field ref saw it, then its a penalty - fair enough, but he didn't so bad luck.

But that's NOT how they treat high tackles. I really don't understand your argument.

The video ref doesn't award penalty for every single time contact is made to the head

They changed the rule a few years ago after players started milking for penalties every time contact was made to the head

The on-field ref can still call on the video ref to double check an incident. Which is exactly what happened. If you weren't so desperately trying to cling on to the belief that you were robbed in order to ease the pain just that little bit, you would be aware of this.
