How can they have different rules?
Sovereign nations don't even get different rules.

Just like theres diff rules between nrl level, esl and international.

Does teddy know how to pass.

Boooom

 

[defensivebomb]

it was one helluva high shot

a flying shoulder to the head

 

[sup42]

💙 Mighty NSW have a better chance with twelve men and no Walsh.

Walsh's attacking game at that level could have torn 💙 Mighty NSW apart.

 

[KPWarrior]

Luai!

 

[Beastmode]

Never seen a direct shoulder charge to the face like that .. KO’d

Oh look

💙 Mighty NSW scored!!!

 

[snake77]

That was a hell of a shot to the head.

It is getting to be important to have outside back cover either on the bench or as 18th man to cover injuries out wide.

Bring in Cobbo and move the Hammer back to fullback works out quite well.

 

[MrFrankWhite]

Far out I can't believe anyone is questioning the decision.

If that's not a send off for a high shot then you can never send anyone off for a high shot ever again.

It was fairly sickening to be honest

It was poor timing not deliberate foul play

 

[Tragic]

Walsh was also going down, but much but enough to make it worse

 

[sup42]

Just like theres diff rules between nrl level, esl and international.

The rules for dangerous play are the same anywhere.

Yes, fair and Sua'ali'i got it badly wrong.

It will be interesting to see the judiciary though. There is some mitigation with Reece's feet slipping from under him before the tackle. Sua'ali'i was aiming (recklessly) for the chest. There are fine margins between recklessness and a great Origin tackle. Gone are the days of the sides trying to smash each other in the first 20 minutes. In my opinion that is a huge part of why Origin was always so popular. It has certainly lost its interest for me now (just another league game).

 

[MrFrankWhite]

The problem is that there is no higher escalation. You could stomp on a blokes face and its the same punishment as a shit timed tackle.

 

[sup42]

💙 Mighty NSW will probably win now that they are playing up hill.

They always need a good kick up the arse to wake up.

Where was you comment when Klein gave a piss weak penalty to 💙 Mighty NSW for the tackle on Tedesco

 

[Boats n Hoes]

Oh well, if your going to put a high shot on worthy enough to get sent off, make it a decent one. Suali sure didnt miss!

Atm playing with 12 men doesnt seem to be hurting 💙 Mighty NSW, id imagine it'll catch up with them at some point tho
