[QUOTE="Feicarsinn, post: 564777, member: 22777"] Okay, this is about the worst attitude you can take to the issue. An act of foul play going unnoticed does not all of a sudden render all other such acts null and void. As I've stated earlier in the thread, I have yet to see the Healy incident of which you (and only you thus far it should be noted) speak but if it is dangerous then he should be punished. The referee, his officials and the citing officer have a responsibility to ensure that the welfare of the players involved is protected. By allowing such a clearly dangerous, albeit not malicious, act to go unpunished they are setting a dangerous precedent. Is it now okay for players to go around the edges of rucks kicking out as they choose as long as when they connect the can say "oh sorry, I didn't mean to"? It seems farcical to me that spitting on a guy seems to be totally unacceptable, while kicking someone full force in the head while in a vulnerable position is just fine. Sad day. [/QUOTE]
