If taking a dive won us a Grand Final I would celebrate the win just as hard. Staying down a getting the penalty is smart football. Penalaties are such moment swings in our game. You can often get a free interchange as well.

If someone hits you high, stay down and get the penalty. For people saying only the tigers do it, look at guys like Ennis, Gallen, Soward etc etc.

Sheens is past his us by date but in the case he is being a smart coach.

We were getting smashed and void of ideas, the so called dive may have got us up a gear. In the end it didnt matter, but you have to use every trick in your bag when you are having a bad day at the office and sunday was one of those days

Here here. I completely agree.

I had to laugh at Watmough telling Farah this morning to have a brain scan just to be sure there is no damage. Coming from someone without a brain in the first place, thats a bit f**king rich.

The grub should stick to what he does best and we all know what that is. *edited as a previous post on the same topic was deleted*

If you need to resort to these tactics then you no have confidence and belief in your game. One prrrk does it then they will all do it. It will breed soft players, more penalties, and the games will be a stop/start affair. Do we want players taking a dive like they do in the round ball game...... or more penalties like Yawnion ?

So what if they do it in soccer. League is loved for it's toughness. You take that away from the game and you will have nothing. Why do people love Origin so much. FE, you're wrong.
