surprised i haven't seen much in the media about the mark paid to port in last qtr resulting in a goal
it had to be a metre over the line with plenty of umps having good vision of it
maybe there was a bit of media comment but i've not found any

his action was the very such sneaky action the afl should want to eliminate
should've been 1 week
what makes it worse is that it was off the ball, there was no scrapping, just clarry standing there relaxed and he comes in from behind and hits him with clarry never seeing a thing . no heat of the moment thing.
gosch's is also pretty open

but nrl is 90% contact. same with thugby ... no contact, no nrl, no thugby
nrl has banned the shoulder charge but still get multiple concussion checks per game
a bit off topic but what about striking the ball with your head in soccer. thousands of hits over some players careers
