Gotta feel for Jordy after this was reported in the media today....


Greenberg also expressed disappointment that players escaped sanction for lifting tackles in recent weeks.

The Titans’ Beau Falloon and his tackle on Will Chambers and the Dragons’ Joel Thompson’s hit on Greg Inglis two obvious examples.

“It’s fair to say over the first six weeks there were a number of tackles that weren’t charged that we were unhappy about.

“If a player is coming down from a position and if by luck he comes out of that, that’s not an excuse to get out of a charge. Players do need to know the onus of responsibility is on them.”

How come everyone on this Board knew that the Falloon tackle on Will was a reportable offence for which he should have been suspended for a considerable length of time...but the match review committee had no idea ?????

well the tackles were on a Storm player and a former Storm player so the ends justified the means.

Seriously I really don't blame Craig cause I think most of us were feeling the exact same way...I'm glad he didn't though

I can level with him. I was never going to watch a game of rugby league again after the salary cap drama. Not because of how the NRL handled it but because I felt the club management betrayed me as, not just as a staunch storm fan, but as a lover of rugby leagur in general. But glad he got his head right and stuck it out.

I think we all know the way the nrl have handled this is a joke.
