I'm stunned that Sezer didn't cop a charge after being reported for that torturous long crusher last week....he's lucky ( or unlucky, depending on how you look at it) to be playing these past couple if games

Sort of like how refs blow a heap of penalties before half time to even up the penalty count. We've been on the wrong end of lengthy suspensions for most of the season, and now the judiciary goes easy on us.

There have been plenty of ex-Tigers over the years that deserved a good old booing. Strangely, I don't feel that way about Brooks. While I don't have a lot of love for him, I don't dislike him either. Im glad he and his big salary are gone.
He'll get an initial boo but Im doubting he'll cop a lot of venom through the whole 80 minutes.

I can understand why members will unload on him, they paid their hard earned dollar to see the Tigers and Brooks fail week in week out but the guy isn't an axe murderer.
The fact that he's killing it at Manly is an indicator that our club was a complete rock show during Brook's tenure here.

I kinda of want Brooks to just be ignored, not booed, not cheered, just general indifference when he is involved. Would be a more accurate reflection of his career here.

The biggest issue imo is to stop play the balls like they do in touch footy where they practically keep running whilst in the process. If you have to play the ball with your foot you have to come to a standstill in order to do it.
The same applies to just rolling it without touching the foot, you can do it without stopping...so to speak
I get the shits when a tackled player gets up and moves three metre forward of the mark and two metres to the side. If refs penalised this or even stopped the play and sent them back to the correct mark it would fix the game
