[QUOTE="Skylinerd1, post: 863047, member: 75206"] Shoulder charges like that use to be part and parcel of any good game of rugby or league. Hardly anyone has ever been seriously injured from a hit like that and as bad as that one was the Lions player still saw out the game. The camera angle and slow motion has not been kind to SBW at all in this particular incident. Its way to easy to judge with the slow motion replays and holier than thou attitude to everything these days. Played at full speed at the original angle its almost an innocuous as the SOM swinging arm at naholo. I dont like SBW but I dont think he's ever gone into a shoulder charge looking to kill anyone.
