    WATCH: NSW Cup send off sparks scuffle and intense debate
    Phillip Makatoa was left in awful pain after a late shot from Parramatta's Wiremu Greig in the NSW Cup. Did it deserve a send…
    • Thanks for posting this mate. I couldn't reloacte it.

      • No problem 

  • I am trying to re find the video but it has disappeared off my facebook.  It was marginally late, but the refs reason is just laughable.  Jordon Rankin was pleading with him that it is a contact sport.

    • There is a video of the tackle on reddit at r/nrl.

       

  • The tackle had force in it. Really, isn't that the idea?

  • Great hit! Very harsh to be sent off for that, it was only slightly late imo, great tackle!

    • His head is down, wouldn't even realised he passed it.

"Only issue is you might want to sign a player long term, they need to agree. Petrus could very well want to play for PNG eventually but also when it came to schoolboys he chose Australia over PNG. Not sure if that means anything."

"Agreed. The players need to know what the plans are for them, and why they are set in place like that. They need to know what KPIs they need to hit in order to progress to the next level. This way the guys in lower grades will know that they are not…"

"PT exactly as you say " isn't that the whole purpose, identify, develop, experience and hopefully prepared to play NRL." Especially at this crucial time, now more than at any other time! Not just Petrus either!

"Yeah well if he's as good as those in the know say he is, you get him to sign long term now. How are png going to negotiate if he's already signed lol.

"$600 million to prevent China's Belt & Road initiative parking warships in PNG ports on 50 year deals is a frakkin bargain.

Prof. Daz replied to Pato's discussion Jack Williams
"Mitchy, an easy way to get $600 million is simply to claw back at least 1.5% of the $40 billion per annum foregone revenue due to giving gas away to foreign multinationals. That is, just make royalties on gas 1.5% more efficient. 
Problem solved!
