Gees, it wasnt too much different to Moi Mois tackle on Kite was it?

the main difference is our player Morrison got up reasonably quickly

I wonder if he would have been sent off if Morro stayed down?

2-3 weeks...was bordering on reckless...another fraction of a second and his forearm would have hit Morro flush across the eyes...

Not even close to being in the same league as Moi Moi's tackle. I also thought Morrison was foxing, but shillington definitely collected him.

Morrison definitely bunged it on, so he should though, every other team does it to us and if he didn't, all the officials had missed it, so we wouldn't have got the penalty....

If Kylie Leuluai didn't get cited for his tackle last week, then noone will be cited for the rest of the year, i thought Kylie's last week was closer to the Moimoi tackle to tell you the truth, but he got away with it......

I think you are being a bit hard on Morro. Did you see how much his head rocked back from that shot? I challenge you to be on the receiving end of that type of hit and be straight up in a tackle :lol:

Watch it again and then look at how he tries to get the water bottle from the trainer. He was a little bit dazed for sure IMO

I spoke with Morro after the game and he said he still had a headache from the hit so. . . take from that what you will.

Looked to be very dazed and unsteady on his feet when he got back up
As for what Shillington should recieve 1-2 weeks IMHO

Don't get me wrong, i thought it was a dangerous tackle and i would have stayed down cause i am a big girl, on the big screen it just looked like he stayed down is all, i haven't re-watched the game yet, it just looked like he had a sheepish grin.

It was definitely a heavy shot on his head......
