Message: [QUOTE="Midean, post: 3388029, member: 10185"] This right here. The enforcer role is dead and buried in the the modern game. There is a few hard men left, but they are heavily hamstrung by the rules and the cotton wool swadding the NRL has wrapped the players in. No one fears any hard men anymore because they are too easily penalized and binned/banned. When we play the Storm, im not worried one bit about NAS, im worried about Papz and Bsmith. When we play the Rorters, im not worried about JWH or Victor, im worried about Teddy, Walker and Manu. 15 years ago was a entirely different game Wendell, when enforcers could really **** up opposition with shoulder charges and huge hits on smaller men. But these days, the smaller men are a protected species and we have seen penalties given over the past few seasons for perfectly legal tackles that have just been hard hits on smaller halves. Its all a bit sad really. The big hit highlight reels of the past are well and truly gone. [/QUOTE]
