Moses tackle

He will miss 2-3 for that reflex tackle

That is exactly what it was. There was no intent whatsoever. When you are coming across in cover, and you get stepped, your arm lifts in reflex as you try and shift weight back to the other side of your body. He may cop a week or two, but Drinkwater will be more than capable of filling his shoes.

But there doesn't need to be intent. 99% of high shots aren't intentional. It doesn't mean he won't get a couple weeks.

100 percent agree. Nabuli got nothing and is playing for the Dragons on Monday isnt he? Wasnt a stiff arm and he was in mid- air trying to make a tackle, cant believe the overreactors saying 3-4 weeks ffs. Could be some blokes heading for a 20 week sit-down going by those clowns.

At the end of the day we can only speculate with an inconsistent judiciary. However we do know Drinkwater and Te Maire have been solid.
 
Ryan James should be getting a few weeks on the sidelines for faking a high tackle just to get a penalty. If the evidence is there that a bloke stayed down for a penalty without copping a hit there needs to be consequences. Ava must of copped a decent whack to the head but because he didn't lay down like a tart we get no benefit. Zillman is a habitual layer-downer, he spends more time on his back than an escort.

Yeh that was pathetic. He had played a great game, no need for that rubbish.
 
simple fact is if he had of broke the guys jaw that would have got him sent off. they only judge sent offs and high tackles by injuries these days, the fact that the guy didn't get a injury will mean he will get 2 to 3 weeks instead of 8
 
I am as one eyed tiger supporter as they come but I thought it was a send off. Yes he got wrong footed yes no malice but in the end it was lazy and straight out neck high. If Moses was a bigger stronger build he would have taken his head off. Anyway go tigs

First week, no carry over points and an early plea. Might just scrape it down to a low grade careless but I don't expect Moses to play against the Dragons.

And, he won't be missed if he's not there. I don't get the hype around this bloke at all. He's a NSW Cup player of the future.

Have you seen him come through the lower grades? Just like Brooks, Teddy et al?

I think you're expecting a bit much from a kid with 10 games under his belt (and already has a MOM). He has done all that has been expected of him as a half. The kids a stud and played well last night with Ryan James running at him all night- he and Halatau forced James to lose the ball 1 metre out from the line in the 77th minute too.
 
So a player that is collared around the neck and forced to a near horizontal position before gravity takes him to the ground, now gets castigated by some for staying down for a short time.
