NRL 2021: Melbourne Storm, HIA, concussion protocols, Victor Radley, high tackle, ‘he was fine’ (news.com.au)
The Melbourne Storm have admitted “there was nothing wrong” with Cameron Munster after a sin bin drama in Friday night’s clash with the Sydney Roosters.
It was early in the match when Roosters lock Victor Radley was given 10 minutes in the sin bin after he hit Munster with a high shot.
Radley was sin binned, while Munster went off the field before running straight back on.
“Munster was a tactical one,” admitted Storm general manager Frank Ponissi, “There was nothing wrong with him. He said Radley hardly got him.
“To be brutally honest we were surprised Radley was sin-binned.
“He passed his on-field test but we wanted to be doubly sure.
“Our main doctor was in the dressing room doing an HIA with Ryan Papenhuyzen.
“Our second doctor checked the vision then sent Cameron straight back out.”
They should be fined 20K for diving the pricks. There is not a shit tactic this club won't use.
