    Carrigan's one on Hastings last year really was a hip drop, and the sort of action that deserves a long suspension. This year? Not so much. The Mam one in particular, which was just a little guy trying to hang to a big guy breaking the line, was ridiculous.

    @Syzy I love this, good on you for being brave to say what u feel. Often Ur told u are old school or out of touch if u don't accept the required changes. The game is already unravelling year by year, they had better reign it in as people are becoming disenchanted big time.

    I didn't see the game, but it sounds like Walsh staked his claim on a QLD jersey, no?

    Wish they would fuck the sin bins off for the hip drops.

    Ruining the spectacle.

    If it's bad enough suspend them otherwise fuck off bunker.

    Walsh has a howler of a pass in him, hope he can right that ship. Can see a runaway intercept or two aka Kimmorley on the cards. He seems to throw and hope a couple of times when he is the main man.

    He still has a few negatives to his game, like trying to score off every touch and sometimes taking a low percentage play but he’s obviously in the mix

    Still think they’ll just pick Ponga Game 1 and reassess for the other games if Ponga flops (in which case doesn’t miss an extra game)

    Still undecided if I keep for whole season at this stage

    Yeah, was the same at the Warriors, going for the hail marry play almost every set - I still don't think he's been tested very much defensively either, that was his biggest downfall, partly due to his size - I thought he came in with a shoulder charge against Olam last night at the try li, so I personally wouldn't count that as a "tick" for his defensive play

    Walsh is really suspect under the high ball as well, which in Origin can be a killer. But he can win you a game just as easily.

    Ciraldo seems to be keen in turning Okunbor into a backrower. Should he be dpp next time ?

    This is the problem with it IMO. In real time…

    A high shot looks like a high shot
    A shoulder charge looks like a shoulder charge
    A crusher tackle looks like a crusher tackle

    Most of these hip drops looks like a good cover tackle… until a player stays down.

    I appreciate the legitimate ones are dangerous but it’s unenforceable in real time. So either nothing happens or you get a sin bin and harsher punishment than all of the above. It’s a mess.

    As soon as a ref uses common sense, people complain that they're not sticking to the rules, but if they stick to the rules, people moan that that they should be using common sense. It was always this way. It's almost like people like to moan.

    Very true.

    Its all just fucking exhausting man. I don't care about the refs. Refs make bad calls. They're human. Get over it.

    The hip drop situation is all a bit silly.

    This has 100% been going on for more than 10 years. I'd say it probably goes back to the late 90s when video refs were first introduced.

    The belief by fans that refs are ruining the game has definitely been going on for as long as the internet has existed (probably longer)

    Yes mate, all true.. I really like the player, just saying what I see. Shoulder charges, idk.. I can't comment, it's a real open one, interpretation/ reality etc.
