@Freddy717263 Not the same force?? You're telling me that little Kalyn Ponga hits with more force than Victor "the inflictor" speeding out of the line to put a shot on???
The biggest danger to rugby players head injuries is poor refereeing. If Radley is correctly punished in the first half, is Staggs stupid enough to attack Pongas head?
@Kiaarn You are correct, they werent identical. One was on a falling player and one was on an upright player (and he followed up with another high shot less than 60 secs later)
Got no issue with the Thewlis sin bin but what a ridiculous game when we are making a big deal about protecting people's heads but the consequence of shooting out of the line and hitting an upright player with force to the head is less than a trip.
When are we going to start to penalise the ball carrier for cheating? That set the saints player holding Danny Walker and the next tackle Walmsley walked about 5m forward before playing the ball.
