Quote: ChrisH "It is now that every , allegedly , game is scrutinised afterwards anyway. It's just a way of appeasing the spectators of the team "sinned against" rather than doing nothing other than giving a penalty. Each game is now effectively "on report" and that is the RFL making a huge rod for their own back. Surely if a player commits a bad foul which gets missed in a game it will be cited by someone afterwards. Where there is an incident in a game that is missed and there is no reaction from the opposing players , coaches , press etc then it can't be that bad so why is it necessary for Ganson and co to pore over the game looking for something that no one cares about. The Paea incident seemed to me to go unnoticed by everyone at the time? If the review panel were just looking at incidents that the ref wasn't sure about where there's no video ref at the game and incidents that are flagged as having been missed and are cited by someone later then the on report system has a place. As it is it's nothing more than theatre or pantomime more like!'"
It would seem that this 'on report' mullarkey is also affecting the NRL,the tackle that has just hospitalised Alex McKinnon was put 'on report'
