CT is brilliant.

[Frenzy.]

it's you who needs to read the rule again, contact above the armpits is not permitted if someone makes contact intentionally, recklessly or carelessly.

I'm not debating the merits of the enforcement of tackles to the head. The rationale behind the rule is sound.

Not all contact with the head is to be penalised let alone binned. If someone is falling or the first contact is below the armpit and contact with the head is incidental there is no way that is worth 10 in the bin nor even warrants a penalty because the contact is not intentional, careless or reckless.

But by all means keep quoting a rule you don't seem to understand.

You're daft

1.

tackles Above the Armpits Are not permitted

Can't be any clearer

2.

(b) A defender, in front of a ball-carrier who is diving or falling, is permitted to come in contact with the ball-carrier’s shoulder provided the defender’s arm(s) extends down the shoulder and trunk, i.e. underneath the ball-carrier.

Can't be clearer

All head contact IS classified as intentional, reckless or careless. There is no classification for "accidental" as you seem to think.

Why fight losing arguments with poorly informed opinion?

 

[Inferno]

Britton certainly seems to be sailing close to the wind.

 

[sladden road]

It was designed to stop contact with the head. That's all. No excuse. Read the rule and stop arguing rubbish.

Get used to it.

More for the dummies

This belongs in a observation thread

 

[Birdee_Num_Num]

Think Nikora picked up a knock. They made the break through him last set

Now off for Williams

 

[Weaponhead]

Moyza still has the pace. Jarrod Wallace is now the second slowest player in the NRL
