When the refs won't do their job and protect you then you are left with no choice but to protect your own.
If Simona was sent for 10 I bet Woods doesn't put Burgess in a knee breaking position. If 2 key Souths players don't get hit with unpunished dog shots they don't lose their temper later in the game.
Simona was unlucky to be penalised let alone put on report. GI was on the ground, Simona wont have a case to answer.
Woods tackle whilst looking bad is fine, sometime in a contact game you get bent in a bad position. I loved Woods controlled aggression last night against the so called best pack in the NRL. Woods killed them last night. What I loved most is all the Tigers were straight in and not tacking any crap. This is a different pack from years gone past.
Sam should have been in the bin for 10 for being third man in.
Gavet as I mentioned earlier will get rightfully suspended. He missed the head and it was a soft knee. If no loading will get about 2-3 weeks.
The high shots on Tedesco were uncalled for and I will think at least 2-3 Souths players will spend some time suspended.
The refereeing needs to be looked at. They lost controlled and if they have sent a player off they may have gained control. Despite what Souths fans think the refs actually favoured them last night.
It is early days but Souths to be title contenders need to improve vastly.
I think as I said all along the Tigers will finish around 10th and will be a far better side next year.
