They need to change this rule.
If the players are turning around and backing into tackles to get more leg drive and post contact meters then its not the defenders fault if a crusher occurs.
They should penalise players for backing into the defence and sitting down.
Thats dangerous.
Agree it’s a crock of shit and if they turn backwards they should be equally liable when it goes to shit. Now grade 1 is 2 weeks multiple players will be getting rubbed out each round

Here's an opportunity to bring in Blacker a large body young bloke give him a go.
Maybe we don't want him or can fit him in the squad if numbers being reduced.

Only players from certain teams though. Note the crackdown didn't seem to apply to Storm players.
We are treated unfairly in my humble opinion and a lot of the decisions go against us. We don't get our fair share of the rub of the green on the field.

It will get to the point that the players will just want to play touch footy and this might be seen as being too dangerous in the NRL's eyes. What a joke.

Attention to a lot of detail makes it difficult for the players to do what they have been doing most of their footy life but now.... you have got to be extremely careful in everything that you do which would put them off their natural way of playing the game.

The Dragons are at the whipping-post and the top clubs will not have a worry because their players will get off each time.

Agree that we are treated unfairly DD- we almost always seem to lose the penalty count- have more six agains awarded against us, have tried disallowed etc. The try that was disallowed against the Broncos where Kerr and Lomax were facing towards their own goal line and tapped the bomb back could easily have cost us the game.
'
It seemed to me that Vaughan barely touched the player- he removed himself from the tackle very quickly. Referee Perenara and Bunker official Jared Maxwell seem to be particularly harsh on us.

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Perenara say at the time when the bunker was checking Vaughan’s tackle the he said he thought it was an accident?

I'll take your word for it- I just remember saying to my two sons that I thought there was nothing in Vaughan's involvment that looked illegal to me.

We have got Perenara again for the Titans game. It is always a big worry for me when he is the ref in our games as a lot of decisions goes against us.
