[QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2574585, member: 2221"] Are you serious? This is the exact moment when things went sickeningly wrong: [IMG]http://www.broncoshq.com/upload/uploads/1395844765.png[/IMG] Explain to me how you expect the players to magically levitate away from Alex once they're falling in the tackle? And how they "knew" his neck was under there...? If you look at the tackle video again, not a single one of them piled on or tried to crush. You clearly see them get of the player pretty quick compared to how long it usually takes for 3 players to get off a tackled player. I really dislike the Storm and Bellyache's tactics, and I have seen pretty deliberate crap done by players wearing the purple jersey. But it's not the case here, there is absolutely no malice in this, and this knee-jerking is ridiculous.Next thing, they are gonna accuse them of putting his head there on purpose. This is just a very unfortunate combination of factors that led to a gruesome injury, a career destroyed, and suffering from everyone, starting with McKinnon, as well as his family and mates, but also McLean and the other players involved, who know their contribution led to this outcome, no matter how involuntary it may have been, and must be having sleepless nights. People seem to need to assign blame when things go seriously wrong, instead of actually looking at what happened, and more importantly, how to prevent it from happening again. I hope that besides supporting the player and his family, that is what the NRL is focussing on! [/QUOTE]
