Completely reckless tackle, flew in and could’ve taken Pollards head off.

Should’ve seen red for that

Both ref’s have been looking not to give a red today. Maybe a new directive but to my uneducated and highly Tigers tinted glasses they were both red.

Pollard kicks it dead. For goodness sake. Regardless of the vaguaries of the ref we really don't help ourselves.

Because he bent at the waist and hit him on the shoulder first.

I thought that was on the right side on the line. Just curving and touch judge went a to b.

Pollard missed touch (my 14 yr old would’ve made) and blew a basic 3 on 1.

We ain’t winning this, on to next week.

Truthfully, we’re really not at our best this season and doubt we’ll be winning anything.

Nowadays, if you hit the head with force, it is a red, irrelevant if you hit anything else first.
