Rabbitohs tonight cheated all the laws of rugby league. Staying down for anything above the head. Lead by no other than Latrel Mitchell. Was embarrassing to be honest, worst game of footy I've seen in years.
Completely embarrassing and it's rugby standard crap, roosters ended up playing the same way but just embarrassing for our game.
Get up and play on, cop the hit on the head and get them back!

What an embarassing reflection of the NRL, 7 sin bins, ref had no control, obvious dirty tactics from both teams.... sad day for RL.... more depressing than seeing JA in an eels jumper.
Let them biff on and play on. Was soft all the sin bins.
If you lay down I thought defender had be put on report for a penalty to be given. If it is on report for high contact and you are unable to get straight back up you should go for HIA straight away. No test from trainer, no need for independent dr, just you lay down and penalty given by bunker you go for HIA or sit out next attacking set until opposition get ball to recover.
Exactly, this is the way it should be. I would of seen 20 plus taps from the head the other night with parra and Penrith. Get up and play on. It will be like touch footy in no time if this comes into the game.
Compare this to the parra Penrith game where we couldn't buy a penalty and it took papalii to get smashed in the face before we got one
Best news of the weekend the 2 dirtiest teams of the last decade are gone . Rooster/storm
next week south's out and it's complete .
And yet , when the Roosters winger got smashed in the face by a swinging arm preventing him from scoring at a crucial time , the referees call was " accidental high shot " and simply allowed the Rabbits to go over for their 20m restart . I thought high was high and it warrants at minimum a Rabbits penalty ( if a penalty try is off the table considering he was a sure thing other than the high shot that slowed him down)
