I don't see how this could ever be applied evenly or fairly, particularly with the conceit that many of these incidents are still largely accidental. The nearest thing to this I could support is that when the action causes the other player to miss a match (or more) that limits or removes any...

Yeah, I don't think we're in any position as a game to be turning players away or risking losing them in an attempt to force talent distribution. Would be great if there was more that could be done to draw players into the clubs with fewer colts coming through, but it has to be via incentives...

Australia A helps super players bridge the gap to test rugby, it doesn't do much of anything for club players making the jump to super - the main developmental role of the NRC or equivalent

I had him second to Petaia but generally agree. Wouldn't mind seeing Petaia and Flook as the two wings. It's a real pity Henry is out for the season, the backline was easily the best it's been with him at 12 this year.

Called it.

Ugh, that was a mess.

I can not work out how Mabey is making the advantage decisions tonight. An absolute lottery.

Did not need that

Yeah, like an actual professional. If there's one thing league players have over union ones it's the quality of their wingers when finishing tries.

Petaia finishing like that won't do anything to dispel the league chat.

Upgraded to red

Just so stupid

Looking so much better now. Composed, controlled and focused.

Geez that's a huge advantage

Hopefully just post bye rust and we shake it off shortly. Hopefully

Rookie error there from McLaughlin-Phillips

Trying to be just a bit too cute with ball in hand, we'd be better off keeping it tight and working around the corner for a little while. Moana:s ruck work isn't great and they look like they'll come apart with steady pressure.
