Vlandys, “I won’t back down, we must get head high tackles out of the game”.
Few rounds later, late high shoulder charge gets a sin bin and one week suspension. goof to see your resolve not faltering after all the “the game will be gone” rhetoric Pete!

looks like this video needs an update…

I'm not sure how it compares to previous years but I think there are only 3 teams who haven't had 40 put on them this year. Storm, Panthers, Eels. And Eels were very close (38).

I'm a Tigers supporter and I feel like I would be making excuses to blame the NRL if we cop another hiding. The top 3-4 teams have been well gelled for awhile and have either recruit well, produced good young talent and have good coaching or a mix of the 3. Tigers have been shit really for a decade with all 3 things so I know personally they have themselves to blame can't tell much about other clubs. I feel like some teams shouldn't be punished for being good cos the same rules apply to them. I say Rooster have an excuse considering they have had 4 season/career ending injuries but then play the Storm who also have injuries.

We're basically back to unlimited tackle with these rules. Coincidentally the same era all the records are being broken from. Don't qoute stats at me either. Storm/Roosters was 51/49 possession? You're having laugh.

Nico Hynes caught a kick. Returned it 70m untouched to score. Storm turned a couple of mistakes into tries. Roosters kept making mistakes but had plenty of ball.

The issue atm is sides not defending errors. You turn ball over let in a try. Then have to kick off where you then give a penalty or 6 again. Having you back defending your line.

Not sure you can put rules into that

You suck because Rick can't coach and is a shit bloke who the whole squad can't stand

NSW Cup had a bye last week.
Now off for 2 weeks.

3 weeks between games.
On the back of no comp last year into a shortened pre- season

Certainly won't help the player development issue
It’s a good point….

and maybe the lack of “second tier” football last year is an under-rated factor in what we are seeing this year…

With many injuries n suspensions… there are many players in the comp who basically played stuff all last year…possibly under-done this year, under-developed.
