Common sense/footy iq... can call it whatever you want 🙂...
But there is a lack of it across the NRL - especially the Wests Tigers.
The shift happened when the players stopped being penalised for dumb things e.g. taking a 20m tap when there was a player infront of them (it used to result in a penalty).

And champion @mtd#2, how/why was this ever allowed to happen?

Idk mate I preferred it when the accountability was on the players.

Instead of a 20m tap they then had to defend.

the last time i believe anyone was penalised for running or passing after being called held was David Noufaluma, the next time it happens will be to a tigers player.

The cowboys loss was too good to be true. The SMH already has a headline of how Sam Walker’s 36 points alone last night out scored the tigers last 5 games combined….

The NRL is poised to trial a controversial change to the kick-off rule in matches with no bearing on the finals to determine whether a permanent switch should be introduced for the 2027 season.

Head office had considered implementing the initiative, which allows a team that has conceded a try the option to either kick-off or receive the ball from a restart of play, in the months before this season.

Not sure why any team would want to kick off and concede momentum.

Yeah it changes the game entirely IMO

However, the rules have not favoured us for 15 years, so a shake up might finally be something that turns our fate around.

I hope it happens just for the sake of having hope for this team again lol

If we are relying on a rule change for when we concede a try to finally become competitive than we are at rock bottom.
