I was expecting that as soon as I saw the replay in the ground. Big loss but, looking desperately for an upside, we were going to need to freshen him up at some point.

So how good is Eribe Doro?

No one thought that would be any different. Under the current rules he has done nothing wrong. It's whether the rules need looking at that people (Me and Justin ) are debating.

There is such a big deal being made about concussion in rugby league at the moment that any more Sita KO's will likely mean it's really looked into.

This isn't a new debate BTW, it was discussed when they brought in the no shoulder charge rule for defenders. It was one of those things that didn't really come up again so it never got looked at. It hasn't been an issue to this point, but there is clearly something about Akouala's technique that's an issue when there's been 3 incidents this season. It's not like he's a particularly strong runner generally, as his lack of metres per carry in games testifies.

He made more metres than Smith (though he made a few backwards) you obnoxious fool.

Smith suffered whiplash, not a KO?

Tad awkward perhaps, I was at the game and perhaps was distracted with the thought I shouldn't have had that last Harvey's Bristol Cream but what incident has Hill been done for?

Presumably the crusher on Mark Percival?

Time for Pat Moran to break into the team, ala Thompson, and make himself un-droppable.
