Stupid tackle, not malicious but stupid and dangerous. Deserving of a 3 match ban.

Looked as though he was definitely driving his head into the ground, that could have had a serious outcome only for Lomax reacting in the last spear, I think Ferres was close to the edge on a couple of tackles today.

Should be more than what Micky Mac got at Wigan 6-8 matches for me

Shocking tackle.

If he doesn't get 5+ games for it then there is something wrong. You only have to see how these tackles can go wrong in McKinnon's case. Make the point now.

Fella got 7 for the McKinnon tackle. Granted the consequences arent as severe, that shouldnt detract from the careless and reckless position he had Jonny in and what could have been!

Bad tackle , no need to be lifting him like that. He should get the book thrown at him but I'm sure the RFL will wuss out.

I don't think they will with the McKinnon incident.

It's to much of a sore point at the moment with what's going on in the NRL so I think they will punish him.

How can you see that as not being malicious? He had no reason at all to lift him. Once he has lifted him, did he really have to drive his head down?

Well I'd like to think it's wasn't malicious and that nobody would intentionally dump another player on his head!
