Fair play to Paul Cullen for calling it how it is.

It is a silly rule that is not enforced half of the time, making it too much a point of argument. No one wants to see players getting hurt, but I don’t think this rule helps. A shoulder charge done in the right manner, with no head contact, is no more dangerous than any other way of stopping a player’s progress. |

If only there were a medium we could use to debate the rules and regulations of our game. The pros and cons of such. Something like a public 'Forum'. If only such a place existed, where people of like minded interests could debate without sarcastic comments and people telling them to Move On. One day, eh? One day... |

Theres not much to debate. The rules have changed. Shoulder charges are banned whether people like it or not. Or am I missing something?

The fact it is a recent change indicates that rules are open to change, therefore opinions and debate about what the rules should be are welcome. |

| Quote: Horatio Yed "Rules that need to be in the game.
Shoulder charge should be legal, this all stems from the Inglis incident on Dean Young (youtube it if you've not seen it), there was uproar in Aus and it filtered over here.
Make it a legal shot BUT if you contact with the head, 5 game ban automatic, no quarrels, no appeals.
Dragging in to touch, there was a hint of discussion on it last night and again Cullen talked sense, why punish good defence, bring it back.
Biff
red cards, really?
If two blokes get heated and throw a couple of shots at each other, bin them, end of.
No reds, no after match fines or suspensions, bin them job done.
Cheap punches to prone players or completely offguard i'm happy for that to be a red.'"
Bring back the Biff!

So as we have no control over it, we shouldn't debate it? You should run for political office, with that attitude you'll fit right in. |

It IS a a STUPID rule
Technically, most ball carriers use a shoulder when running the ball in

Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013
Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

According to the CURRENT rules, Briers' shoulder charge is unlawful. He should be punished in line with the CURRENT protocols.
If and when the shoulder charge is ever allowed again, then it would be a great example of the textbook tactic.

The rule is wrong IMO but it remains and how the RFL reacts will tell us much about their integrity because under the rules, forget our opinions, Lee Briers is banged to rights.

You do realise a shoulder charge is just a penalty in the same way obstruction or offside is?
If you think he'll be up before Red Hall, you're way off.

Agree he shouldn't be up before the disciplinary comm.
Although I'm pretty sure I've seen players cited this year for a shoulder chanrge.
Not certain really, anyone else noticed players being cited for the offence?

If it was a head shot then they could be up in the same way as they could be for a serious high tackle. But a shoulder charge to the body is just a penalty at the point of occurrence and nothing more.

The rule is obviously massively flawed...
contact with the head - penalty
contact with the body - play on
