  • Absolute disgusting dog shot. If this incident happened in a public place, the aggressor would almost certainly be jailed.
  • Sign him up, lol

  • Wow that's shocking
  • There was a time in the 60s and 70s when thuggery was common place in rugby league. Dog shot was how Sattler got his jaw broken in that grand final. Remember Les Boyds elbow on the big marn in origin? That was even in the 80s. Rugby league is a game, and for all those times when we wish players would throw a punch, we just have to think about where it can lead and the headlines it generates world-wide. For every "understandable" or "justified" punch you'll probably get idiots like this throwing dog shots.
  • If he did he in the NRL he only get 8 weeks but he done itin UK so he get 20 weeks

    • If he played for bulldogs, he would be free to play next week.
      And an apology from the refs for sending him off.
  • X2 lol

  • Hope he is put out of the game for many years, it's not that different to the Packer thing.

    Glad the thug animal was sent off, like to think he would be here also.

    I would not be confident enough to say, that he would have been sent off in GF here though. 

    Sign the reff up to nrl he obviously has the guts some of ours here lack!

  • Wow I would looove to have him the aggression is amazing exactly what we need
    • No use having the aggression and no brains though. Smashing an unconscious man in the face whilst he is lying face up is not someone that we need.

Yobz replied to Yobz's discussion 2026 Disrupter Rule - Why wasn't this a penalty to the Eels?
"If the purpose of the rule is to not have "one hand interfering with the opposition player", it should be worded as such."

SuperEel 22 replied to Yobz's discussion 2026 Disrupter Rule - Why wasn't this a penalty to the Eels?
"1. The rule is dumb and incredibly vague.
2. It's a coin toss decision
3. According to The Bunker in this game, basically making it look like you're going to go with 2 hands is good enough.
Can't wait for this stupid rule to ruin a rep/finals game."
