So it is a big topic of conversation, overall i understand the rule but it can get a bit ridiculous. However, in the footage he shoved the ref with some force to get out of the way. He did apologise straight after but i am wondering what everyone's thoughts are on his shove?
If he was moving the ref out of the way to celebrate with Turuva then he could have done it, like he should with anyone else, gently put their hand on their arm and excuse themselves around. No issues. Common sense prevails. But Luai hits him with some force around the middle of his back. The look the ref gave though was hilarious as they of course acted like the boss.

i wonder what blocka thinks about this
Penrith favoured by the refs and the NRL. It's pretty fuckin obvious these days.Lets not forget Taylan Mays suspension not being followed thru because the Penrith fans don't deserve to be punished.
Imagine if Radley did what Luai did last night
Well he did get a slap on the wrist and a $1800 fine if it was one of ours happy days he'd be gone for the season
Let's be honest, touch judges aren't really referees, more like statues with flags
hard to put a brain in a statue
GONE….. throw the book at him.
There needs to be a precedence set for the kids that thing they can push referees around.
Penrith are a bunch of wankers every time they score a try.
It also opens up a great opportunity for Nicko to play State of Origin.
I don't think you should penalise a player in celebration
Nothing malicious was directed at the ref.. Nothing to see here
Just down right arrogance Tad . Let's forget players showing no respect for officials do you mean ?
I haven't seen the incident mate.I know many don't like Luia after last year's GF and the comments he made about us.
Respect for officials? Hmmm -- Officials who have earnt respect I would agree.
I noticed there was an article in the Guardian today where a Police Officer tasered a 95 year old lady today in a Nursing home today?
95yo great-grandmother in hospital after being tasered by police at Cooma aged care home
i heard she touch a ref during a bridge game ,
That the kind of punishment is hand out to players for touching a ref in any code.
