Re: Cripps Charged by MRO

Martin, Bontempelli, Fyfe, Cunnington, Mitchell, Cogs, Whitfield, Neale etc all deal with tagging and don't need a Royal Commission to deal with it. If Cripps used his size and strength more he wouldn't have lightweights like Anderson shoving him about. Pittonet does need to do more as do Cripps teammates but it does get back to Cripps imposing himself physically and leading from the front. Have been pleased with Walsh who does have a go back at players who try it on with him and it will set him up for the future and he won't end up an easy target.
Yeah like last week and got pinged with a free, the retaliator always cops it in the ass. Back in the day, it got sorted behind play or at the next context by the enforcers. Can't do that anymore, been stamped out of the game whether it be going the knuckle or running through through someone with a perfect hip and shoulder. The officiators need to protect players like Cripps, plain and simple.
