The lifting tackle is and has always been part of the game. Why ban it now? The players know the risk when they take the field. It is a full contact sport, there are bound to be injuries.
If someone ends up on their back after being driven into the turf that is the best tackle in the game.
Getting very sick and tired of all these do-gooders ruining the game.
Everyone knows the risks of rugby league whilst playing, which makes it a tough sport

Quite possibly..according to Pythagorus theorem intercepted with Einstein's theory of relativity.. Price's lack of chin would've meant his body would've continued traveling along an horizontal plane..thereby when his momentum slowed down he would land flat on his body..

QLDRL have said they don't agree with the final outcome but will accept it and move on, the media in QLD and others who diagree should follow instead of making all these big deals

QLD are just scared because they know our pack is better than theirs and we finally have halves that know what they're doing. Reynold's game perfectly compliments Jarryd Hayne's.

Reynolds free for Origin II
1:05







BENNY Elias has handed a new title to Queensland Rugby League: “The greatest whingers in Australian sport”.

In a sledge sure to leave King Wally Lewis foaming from both mouths, Elias insisted the Maroons had now surpassed Bernard Tomic, Anthony Mundine, even certain NRL coaches, in our great pantheon of sore losers.
Invited on to Suncorp Stadium on Wednesday night with his ageing mum Barbara — only to be roundly booed — Elias questioned why Queenslanders couldn’t show the same humility after losing the series opener on Wednesday night.

His claim comes as QRL officialdom screams “conspiracy” following the decision by NRL judiciary members to downgrade a dangerous throw charge against NSW playmaker Josh Reynolds, thereby making him eligible for Origin II in Sydney, when the Blues can wrap up the series.
“It’s like these Queenslanders, they just don’t know how to be graceful in defeat,” Elias told The Daily Telegraph.
“You feel like telling them, ‘C’mon, just once, act with some class, a little humility’.







“I’ve been around rugby league, around sport, a long, long time now and I’ve never known anyone to whinge in defeat quite like the QRL. It’s embarrassing.
QUEENSLAND CAN ‘KEEP CRYING’

“Truly, there is no one worse in Australian sport.”
Strong in his first outing as the Blues starting five-eighth, Reynolds was charged with a grade two dangerous throw after he and teammate Beau Scott spun Queensland winger Brent Tate in the first half of a game they eventually won 12-8.
Yet despite being labelled “a dog” by The Courier Mail, the gritty Canterbury playmaker will not miss a game after having the charge reduced to a grade one.
“And neither he should,’’ fellow NSW great Steve Roach fired.
“I saw where Tatey came out saying he had never been in a more frightening place or whatever — please.
“Yes, he was put in an awkward position. But in no way was it intentional, anyone could see that.

“In fact, I’d go as far as to say there were a lot more dangerous things take place in that game.
Some of the stuff around the ruck — knees, elbows, little headbutts — but this is a game of Origin football, it’s supposed to be hard.”
Elias also questioned how the Maroons could be making complaints of any kind when all the contentious refereeing decisions went the way of the home side.
They have had a history of getting the close calls — remember the Greg Inglis and Justin Hodges try howlers from 2012.
“Conspiracy? Was there one person inside the QRL who watched those last 10 minutes?’’ Elias fumed.

​


“There can’t have been, otherwise they would know that the referees did everything possible to get their boys over the line. Yet because it didn’t happen, that must somehow be our fault? C’mon.
“I think what all this shows is that, inside the Maroons camp, there are people pressing panic buttons. Believe me, for the first time in a long time cracks are starting to appear.”
Roach agreed: “The Queenslanders got beat. OK, deal with it and move on. Prior to the game they came out saying they weren’t even training. We could’ve taken that as disrespect, but why, it wasn’t going to help us win the game.

​


“If the Maroons don’t want to train, that’s up to them. We know we didn’t leave a single stone unturned in our preparation.
“But that was game one. It’s done. Everyone knows they’re going to come out incredibly hard in this next game. That’s a given.
“So why get all upset. Why try to rub young Josh Reynolds out of the next game for something that was quite obviously one of those things that happens in rugby league?”

Bahahaha. No you didn't. You said you were worried about him missing dogs games, not that he wouldn't miss any at all.

NSWRL? It's funny how Queenslanders fabricate this conspiracy bullsh1t. If the NRL has an anti Queensland agenda nobody has told the refs (you know, the refs who made appalling decision after appalling decision in order to try and hand Queensland the game on Wednesday.... Or the officials who helped Queensland win in 2012 by allowing 2 "tries" that never should have been allowed.

The Reynolds downgrade was just common sense prevailing after a knee jerk reaction from the NRL in grading the incident too harshly on the back of Tate's deliberately provocative comments.

Its to get people to buy the paper.

Not sure why they can call someone a "dog" and get away with it. I know he plays for the Bulldogs, but clearly they wanted it to have the negative connotation.

Also to call Papallis' hit a dog hit is harsh. Papalli was blindsided, and didnt see Gallen pass the ball.

Any coach will be proud of that tackle, if anybody that needed to be placed on report it had to be Beau Scott. It was only with Scott's involvement that put Tate in dangerous position.
