Wade Graham ironed Hoffman out with a shoulder charge to the head and then did the same to Gerard Beale. He was penalised an placed on report for the first incident but because Beale was able to rise and play the ball the second time around nothing was done.
You may say what you like about it just being rugged, but the heirarchy of the game signalled early this year that they were going to police such tactics, resulting in Te'o's suspension. Graham ought to have been marched for dissent when he stood there and argued with the referee about being penalised, and sent off for producing another shoulder charge that went head high on Beale.
The standard of officiating was extremely poor. As I said, I don't know if the young blokes had it in them to win against the Sharks, but that rubbish certainly did not help their cause.
