it was nowhere near as bad as JWH on Su'a, if he gets pinged dragons should take it to the highest court in the land :))
Well I hope you are right justa. You were at the ground and most probably have watched replays of the incident. I was watching the game on Kayo but missed it for some reason. I noticed that Luciano was limping a bit after the "tackle" but I "missed" seeing anything blatant in the tackle. As you say if JWH's was worse and he got off and Moose cops a charge which will result in a suspension, we should challenge it and bring video of both incidents in at the Tribunal.

Yep Dave , Luch stayed down and then played on, nothing like Su'a and when I think that Luch went off it was for something different, also I heard nothing from Madges press conference that suggested anything about a hip drop, at least he showed a bit of class and praised the dragons for their effort, unlike robinson last week, truly poor form on ANZAC day.

Glad your not a selector
100% right Yow, suli was massive yesterday as he has been since the beginning of the season, and people should watch our games closely and see that suli cannot pass to Feagai because our style of attack gives wingers and centers no space with the defensive line right on top of them when they get the ball. All that would happen is Feagai would get bundled into touch, how many times have we seen Lomax trying to get off that impossible pass to Rav, and what happens ???? Give Suli and Feagai space and then you will see the difference.

We've seen a couple of times this year how great early ball wide to Suli and Co has been but our middles just aren't laying the platform or creating the space to enable this. Both our defensive structure and defensive capabilities in the middle are barely up to keeping us in the game let alone giving us momentum and time to our backs. They're gassed and barely holding the opposition forwards at bay. Everyone is so strong these days, we're just not seeing the big hits, you're more likely to see 3 and 4 defenders just trying to bring down one forward. Our boys were awesome to win that game but our first up contact in defence is weak. Similarly our forwards aren't hitting the line with speed and purpose, slow play the balls, slow service from dummy half, backing into or surrendering in the tackle are all contributing to NO Momentum, NO yardage, it's a vicious circle. On the upside, getting bud and or Amone to dummy half will bring instant rewards, I hope Hook realizes that.

Applause for Madge clap, clap, clap. He has suffered quite a lot since that time Seibold took over at Souths who then got his just deserts himself thinking that he was king pin when he went to the Broncos. I think Madge deserves better - but not by beating us hehe!

Moose better get off. Are the MRC charges announced this afternoon?

Nil charges from the Saints game. Pity Sutton and Klein didn’t see it that way 😳

So true justa. The reason why Suli steps off his left foot is with the hope that when he goes back in field with the step(s) he might be lucky enough to break the tackle and then creating more space to give the winger when he sends the pass to him. That's what I think anyway.

Agree, Robinson has no class. He's like a spoilt little
rich kid. If he doesn't win, tells bullsh.t story, about how they should have won.A real GOOSE.
