You'd think any tackle like that causing injury should be 4 weeks like couchman. Set the precedent don't land on peoples legs lol. Disappointing from nrl but hopefully Iongi avoided bad injury still needs scans
Totally disgraceful! If they're serious about stopping the 'Hip Drop' tackles then it should be equal consequences! The tackler should be out of the game the same amount of time the injured player is out
The NRL are a joke!!! Iongi could be out for 10wks and this guy gets 1??? BS.
There was a stat last week....in the last two yrs eels players injured from illegal tackles missed a total of 60 matches together, compared to the players that committed the tackles missed 10 matches altogether. And that's not including yesterday's game. Let that make sense.
"Seems Wiz is unable to grasp moral vs legal impairment, including why assuming reckless driving due to above-zero drug count is incorrect.
You know what they say, if it's too much for your small brain, just don't comment "

Yep make it simple you land on someone legs and cause injury 4 weeks. They might be more careful if punishment isn't soft

It is due to Iongi only missing a few months compared to Hopgood missing a year. Seriousness of the injury dictated the weeks.
If someone sat on Cleary leg and he's out for 8 weeks I wonder...
This is nrl BS looking after panthers. Doesn't Kenny have form here, I'm sure he took someone out the same way last year or the year before.
