Just so many injuries now. Head knocks, every where on the bodies of players, just so many.

What has caused this? The new rules maybe?

We've been here before. Crackdown on high shots come and go.

Remember Andrew Walker on debut for us in 1992. High tackle, sent off, 4 weeks. He was just a kid at the time. The judiciary made an example of him so they could be seen to be doing their job.

Is this current stuff any different?
Well it's taken about two weeks...

Round 10: 14 sin bins, 3 send offs.
Round 11: 17 sin bins, no send offs.
Round 12: 5 sin bins (after 5 games).

The NRL are truly paying tribute to that legendary band...

Yep,

Preparing for SOO.

Even in yesterdays games, there were "penalties" given for what would have been sin bins in tragic round.

It's a joke...

If you're wearing the Red V, you're sent off, 10 mins or suspended for 5 games.

Top 4 team....play on, free pass.

This is what being cheated feels like. Blatant. We all saw it coming. Hook mentioned it, he saw it coming. If it is inconsistent and not the same for all teams, it is cheating. We are still trying to sticky tape teams together because of the crackdown. The powers that be realised that SOO was going to be compromised and changed it like that, no explanation.

And you just wait and see fellas. As soon as the SOO is over, whammo the refs will come down heavy with sin bins and send offs and guess what, which team will cop it? Yep, you guessed it!

Didn't you head Robinson saying just that. Origin can't have refs sending players off we need 13 on 13. Bullshit it is.
