The fact the punch was relatively soft is neither here nor there. Punching a bloke in a defenceless position like that should be a straight send off.

All the talk through the week about getting harsher on illegal play and using send offs. Clear as day send off and they give him 10.

Watch them send a Raiders or Knights player for something inconsequential this weekend. Then they can pat themselves on the back.

Knights have had it good for the last few years. Usually raiders warriors or titans as the punching bags for the refs

Honestly thought the Rooster would win this, Bunnies are smashing em

Same here. I rated the chooks much higher than Souths before the game but they look totally outclassed. Keary has barely been spotted, but it's not surprising when their down 18-0.

Can't expect to compete with only 7 completions in 40 minutes.

Add to that our newest Mensa student in the form of fifita who should have been sent off and it's a long night thus far.

Possession will probably even up a bit but too little too late

What’s your criteria then?

He straight up punched a guy, on the ground, in the back of the head.

Crap punch, but that doesn’t mean a thing.

If that’s not a send off you might as well get rid of the rule.

Every week you see players hit each other on the back or front of the head with an open palm that has far more force and intent than that "punch" without so much as a penalty.

He threw a "punch" and had to be binned. It was stupid, a dog act, but not a send off.
