Every player knows you can't do that though. He's played wing where you need to save tries as well. It's not like it's an accidental high tackle or something.

it’s actually very common mistake for an inexperienced FB attempting to get his body under the ball, it’s coached heavily in the Jnrs.

thinking about his circumstances whilst playing the game would be the biggest mistake he could make.

He let the club down on their biggest day by being coked out.

Then is told NSW Cup for atleast 4 weeks until you earn the trust back.

1st game back he is binned and suspended for a dog shot

If that isn't dumb then what is

It wasn’t a dog shot, he wasn’t trying to hurt the dude with his knees, he was trying to get his lower body under the ball and stop a try.

As I said, it’s a very common mistake, to the point that it’s discussed at length during Jnr rugby league “coach the coaches” sessions.

If you honestly think he was trying to hurt him, you have issues.

!/ Jack smacks Luai in the chops.

2/ Luai goes to the head bin.

3/ Luai proceeds up the tunnel.

4/ Luai returns with his boom-box on his shoulder.

5/ Luai goes back on the field.

6/ Jack comes off the field with what they discover in the dressing shed is the boom-box anally inserted, and the volume turned up to 11. (because 1 is louder than 10)


idiot.

you can say rubbish If you like, and your too hard headed for me to try and convince otherwise, but many experienced FBs have made the same error. I can start posting Billy Slater videos if you like. I certainly wouldn’t call him a F$@king idiot.

You won’t convince me because you are clutching at straws making excuses for a stupid play.

How is it an inexperienced fullback mistake if Billy slater used to do it??? Haha fmd. For the record when slater used to drop knees into try scorers or kick at the ball he would get called a f**king grub and worse, no one was talking about it being an inexperienced mistake.

I don’t need to convince you, I’m simply trying to prevent you from looking foolish. Mission failed.

I’m not excusing him! He did the wrong think and deserves to be punished, I’ve never said different.

Calling it a grubby dog shot is just not true. He was trying to stop the try from being scored, not hurt old mate.

Not doubting his skill but if one of the best to ever play doesn't get a pass a rookie trying to earn respect back sure isn't.

And if he had of got his body under the ball and held old mate up, most of this forum would have been calling for him to replace Edwards.

Either way it was poor technique produced by a bloke trying his best to stop a try.

I said Naden getting suspended is stupid as f**k. I never called him a grub or a dog. You are completely full of shit Luke.

You’re right, that was Franklin, I merged both of my replies, my bad.

But I still don’t agree with you. He was trying to do what he could to stop the try. Calling someone f$&king stupid for that, I will never do.

He may of been trying to help the team but all he did was hurt them and now he’s out for two weeks. He can’t afford suspensions he’s a bees dick from throwing away his career.

It sounds like all we disagree about is the level of criticism he deserves which is a silly thing to argue other. The fact is he is already on a club imposed four week nrl ban and now he’s going to miss the next two weeks, whether it’s just a silly inexperienced mistake or stupid f**king mistake he’s not going to be much for the team or for his own career over the next two weeks that is for sure.

if he stops the try he’s a genius, correct?

I didn’t see the NSW Cup game on Saturday night so can’t offer any comment on the Naden incident which has led to his suspension, which is unfortunate for him and probably the last thing he needs right now. He needs a really solid season this year is he is to be offered a contract extension.

He didn’t stop the try, he got sin binned and suspended, let’s just stick to reality.

I am sticking to reality. If he stops the try, he’s done well and we aren’t having this conversation. There is no way you are on here calling him f&$king stupid.

But as it happens he didn’t stop the try, so he’s f$&king stupid, despite the mistake being the same in both out comes.

I’ll tell you what’s f$&king stupid, BJ trying to fight anyone that tackles his brother, Hudson Young sticking his fingers in multiple dudes eyes, Cleary tik Tok gate.. Naden doing Coke in GF week... these are all f&@king stupid.

Trying to stop a try and getting it wrong, I’m ok with.

No you are not sticking to reality. You are speaking about a hypothetical outcome that did not happen. The reality is he made dangerous contact with another player and got sin binned and suspended.
