Chambers on Feki

Just watched the highlights.

Right you are.

Clutch none the less.

 

[LESStar58]

Has this merkin ever been injured in his career?

Yes. Elbow injury in the ANZAC test in 2010.

 

[Burwood]

Anything going to happen to Koriibete over his cannonball tackle on Fifita in the opening stages of the game? Was amazed that not even a penalty was given when he clearly attacked the lower leg of the ball carrier.

There was nothing in that tackle.

 

[Burwood]

There was nothing in that tackle.

Looked like a textbook cannonball to me. Two Melbourne players holding up Fifita, and then Koroibete the third man in and making initial contact well below the knees. He literally launched himself at the ankles, not even an attempt to hold Fifita's legs in an attempt to stop him making extra metres.

Fifita was very lucky not to be seriously injured.

Went to the game. Left feeling ripped off. What a shit game.

Both sides were laying all over the ruck and the tackled players for way too long all night.

Storm players were working the tackled player way more than usual. Smith was at his grubby best. Both sides had plenty of divers too.

For the two best sides in the comp you expect a great game. Instead we got a match full of grubby, cheating, sooking, diving bullshit.

It was an embarrasment of a match.

Seriously? Koroibete hardly touched him. And he was not third man in, when he went for the legs nobody had hold of Fifita. The only person who has a case to answer out of that match is Ennis for his shoulder charge

Such a shame he wasn't.

That was a deliberate attempt to maim an opposing player.

Koroibete should be cited for that chit.

If Bellamy gets the coach of the year after grooming his players to deliberately take players out in a dog like fashion,it'll be a mockery of the award.

It's funny, I remember when one of the Warriors players dived at Munsters legs everybody was saying it was bullshit that he got penalised for tackling around the legs. But now Korobeite goes for the legs and it was a dirty act trying to injure a player. Talk about your double standards

He almost completely missed. Fifita moved out of the way

You remember,and lots of people won't because it's the issue at hand in the Melbourne game we are currently discussing.

That tackle last night was as callous as they come.
