Did anyone watch nrl 360 last night? How good was it to see Kent and co giving Kafusi, the referees, match committee, and the NRL, in general, an absolute roasting about Kafusi knocking out Matterson using a deliberate elbow and calling him out for being a grub and having done it previously to Cordner. Kent was on fire calling out the storm for these deliberate tactics and claiming they train 3 times a week with a ju jitsu coach so Kafusi knew exactly what he was doing. nice change.

Yeah, I loved it. Its 100% right too. That should have been 6 weeks minimum.
Glad they did. Something needs to be done. A lot of spot light on head injuries the last few years with what concussions do to the brain yet Bellamy still trains his teams to do dirty tactics like that. Matterson needs head gear if he wants to keep playing cause wow the amount of head injuries he has had. When he is older he be a vegetable!
Of course, that suckhole Rothfield claimed Hooper went too far by suggesting Melbourne are coached to deliberately try to cause injury to opposition players illegally. His tune may have been different if it was a Cronulla player who was the victim of foul play at the hands of a Storm grub.

Its the cover up from the NRL and media that pisses me off.
The storm in a tea cup about Gutherson's wink when he was obviously injured is classsic distraction.
Anneasley telling Kent that there has been worse shots on the head and giving an example of one that happened two decades ago is classic whitewashing.
Media companies should not be allowed to own footy teams, creates too much bias that affects the refereeing and judiciary.
Saw that too.
A couple of things: firstly, nothing was said about Bellamy claiming he didn't think the hit was that bad in the presser, so he's still reveered and a protected species and secondly, if they are training Jiu Jitsu 3 times per week, then they are taught to lead with their elbows when falling on an opponent. James Hooper got fired up as well but he quickly retreated whilst Kenty was just angry throughout....and that little slimeball Rothfield tried to defend the Storm - interesting to see where their loyalties lie.
Wtf Mack, of course JJ contains elbows
Mate the type of martial arts the Storm players practice involves elbows and hurting the opponent. You can call it what you like but it's illegal.
You’re spot on Mack, but Hoops was implying that one dog act leads to another.
