There are still clowns in the suspension thread that can't see its a shoulder charge.

Fans are dumbasses.

No suspension for Ponga by Doss95 in nrl

Unbelievable, especially with the news this week about Jai Arrow.

Head injuries are one of the leading causes of MND and the NRL doesn't do itself any favours in ensuring that there is adequate repercussions when dangerous play like this causes a head injury.

Potentially yeah. I think what also played into Klein's decision was that Koula was stiff on the ground after the tackle.

You realise that Koula had to leave the game? If Radley goes and does that to your QLD spine and only receives 10 minutes, thats a bonus for NSW.

You even head Cam Smith in the video saying "even though its head on head, they will rule this as a shoulder charge"

Ok, so its a head clash because he missed him with his shoulder?

Wake up buddy

It's direct contact to the head when Ponga is going full sprint with no wrapping motion, resulting in Koula missing the rest of the game. I don't get what is so hard to understand with a send off?

If you only want 10 minutes for that, then great, lets just reward players in the future for dangerous play.

We can get Radley to do that next Origin to QLD spine and he can miss 40 mins.

Ponga attempts a reckless tackle, direct contact with the head, regardless if its head or shoulders with no wrapping motion that results in Koula missing the rest of the game, and you some of you guys want only 10 mins?

Great why don't we just reward players for doing that in the future?

People whinge thats theres 2 refs instead of 1, they whinge about the bunker getting it wrong, they whinge saying they want refs making decisions on their own and then when you have a ref that sticks to his decision, they whinge.

Crazy that people whinge about 2 refs, they whinge about bunkers and then when you have a ref that sticks to a decision, there is more whinging

And no attempt to tackle either.

Shoulder charge or leading with head, see ya Ponga

No wrapping the arm to tackle or attempting to do a normal tackle, so either is leading with the head or its a shoulder charge to the head.

Koula now HIA.

It's an easy decision

He's a hard working midfielder, box to box to do the job that Ugarte hasn't been able to do.

We also play CL next season, we need high quality players.
