RU sure about that Gazza?

I am sure of what I read BLMO1 , however circumstances may have changed since . As long as it is not one of our players that get ‘ hip-dropped ‘ and the culprit is off Scott free - that is my main concern.

As said by many members , our Dragon hierarchy need to man-up to the NRL and tell them that we will not be used as scapegoats for every rule change that some nit-wit has thought up .

The inconsistency is ridiculous. In the Parra / Titans game young Campbell came across knees first and cleaned up the Parra winger as he scored....he went to hospital with a jersey full of broken ribs.....nothing said....the media darlings are never criticised. If that had been Rava or Fui .....would never have heard the end of it and lengthy suspension!

I read on Foxsports website that Collins got exonerated because first contact was higher up the leg. Isn't that the definition of a hip drop in that you tackle higher up and then slip down?
This is now 2 games in a row that Collins has made a conscious decision to attack the legs and put a player in danger. The Foxsports article even quotes a doctor that the player was very lucky to get away with not having his leg broken. Even the so called ex-players on tv say it's dangerous but none go hard enough to say that Collins should be suspended to learn his lesson. While not condoning what Fui did last year to Papenhuysen, but they all jumped on his back to have him rubbed out.

Yep BS. That is 2 indiscretions now he has escaped affective punishment.
Am I surprised with the MRC..no. Luke Patten in charge
But the MRC should be blown up along with the bunker now nitpicking in slow-mo and believing they have the licence to overruling challenges or anything else without any clear evidence
The Titans were dudded yeatrday in the 2nd half. The coach was right to blow up.

Well thank you ever so much your royal Lordshits , how damn gracious of you chaps to let the Dragons of lightly for a change .

I only hope that we have a cheque- book otherwise we may be in trouble . 😳
