They do it every minute of every game and don't get penalised for it
Always have. Even in the dark days of grappling, chicken wings, it was infuriating seeing their opponents getting pinged for holding down while not getting penalised themselves.

Eagles should have got a reset several times, Storm are slowing down the ruck most tackles

Munster's the worst but gets away with it. Hold downs, forward passes, knees to the head, all good says the ref.

Manly might be a bit gassed but if they get more ball this half they can play better than what they've shown so far while Melb are playing their usual standard and it's 8-8. Come on Manly, rip in !

Yep and there is a crackdown every year and then Bellamy slowly reintroduces it throughout the year and by finals they are in full wrestlef**k mode with no penalties being blown

Just watch the Melbourne finals this year be the lowest scoring slowest games of the year
