Bye Bye Latrell

Has Robinson come out questioning the severity of the tackle? Has he suggested that Dugan laid down feigning injury? He’s got form in questioning whether a player is genuinely injured after foul play from one of his players.

No way was that a chicken wing tackle. He’s allowed to hold the arm, he never twisted it.

And as for Will Chambers, the only reason I brought he’s name up is because the tackles are very similar. Obviously was always going to get the stupid comments from the idiots about Chambers but this has nothing to do with Chambers except comparing the tackles. They are very similar, Latrell holds him up, hooks his arms in and jumps, comes down on Dugans head. Deserves a similar punishment. In fact I say it’s worse then Chambers tackle because at least Chambers had the decency to move Haynes head out of the way first
A chicken wing is controlling the arm into a position that can cause injury, especially when applying a twist . I rewatched it, it was definitely a chicken wing. The only defence of that tackle is he did let go pretty quick before any real injury occurred

I'd be satisfied if he didn't get suspended but we can go back and get a penalty...

You know, help the team he committed the foul against rather than our opponents.

Roosters coach Trent Robinson urged the match review committee to ignore the fact Dugan stayed down after the incident.

"You can't look at the actions of the player on that," Robinson said when questioned about a possible ban for Mitchell.

"If they're going to go off then fine, but you can play for penalties at different times as well. That's up to someone else."

TheGimp wouldn't give a shit about this but because it's Latrell (who is easily the best centre in the game at the moment), he would do anything to see him rubbed out for the year

Haha. Why am I not surprised.

I say let latrine play. You could hit Dugan with a hummingbird feather and the merkin would act like he's gone 3 rounds with Mike Tyson.

The Panthers player who did the exact same thing to latrell resulting in him being stretchered off didn't get charged.
That was Penrith, this is the Roosters. He’ll get some time on sideline, no risk, aside from the fact you only have to look at Cletus Dugan and he goes down hurt.

I’m just glad his left nut didn’t sneak out in the tackle, otherwise he’d cop a $15k fine as well.
