[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 968142, member: 72977"] Also I forgot to add that intention is no longer relevant. The potential for serious injuries is so high that WR can't afford to distinguish between whether a high tackle is intended or not. Instead they all get a card (barring the seatbelt/neck tackle) and then longer punishments are determined after the game in the form of bans (which WR still has some work to do on as they have not been consistent). It's simply a question of player safety and if your pleasure at watching huge men knock each other out is more important then that says it all really. [/QUOTE]
