Well not a great half.

Fifita dumb but seriously bigger taps in most tackles.

Arrow still living up to his name as one of the biggest cats in the comp.

Klein sucked in and hammering us with restarts and penalties

Only one of those restarts was harsh IMO (the sitilli one) and all the penalties were warranted.

We just need to be better

Yep poor Roosters getting robbed. Without Klein’s interference they’d be up by plenty.

Like I said, happens every week with far more force and intent in the back and front of the head to players in prone positions. If his fist wasn't closed nobody blinks, it was barely a tap.

But it was closed that is the point right?

If you are happy with that type of stuff in the game that's great for you but that has no place in Rugby league. It was a cowardly cheap shot.

Yeah. Fair enough. I admit I have more questions than answers.

To be honest, I’d rather see the palm strikes rubbed out too. Train a palm strike properly and it can be as damaging as a punch.

When did I say I was happy with it? Feel free to quote me when I did.

All I said is that it wasn't a send off and the punishment was adequate.

Yeah I hate the rubbish too. Nothing tough about slapping a guy in the face or back of the head when he's pinned down by multiple players.
