1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Jub mission with Jonesy and Amanda get.

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 2: On down to the Jonesy demand of arms for the

3
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 2: pub test this morning. The NRL High Tackle Crackdown? Does

4
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 2: it pass the pub test?

5
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 3: Fourteen players were charged, the most on record at the

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 3: NRL dating back to nineteen ninety nine, so the number

7
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 3: of players charged for contact with the head or neck

8
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 3: was up seven hundred percent over the opening six rounds

9
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 3: compared with the twenty seventeen season. They are taking this

10
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 3: pretty seriously, aren't they. But some people aren't happy, saying

11
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 3: we may as well be playing odds tag. It's taking

12
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 3: all the This is a contact sport and you need

13
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 3: to accept it's going to be a contact sport. Things

14
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 3: happen accidentally in the game of play. Maybe we should

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 3: put NFL gear on. So some people aren't happy, but

16
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 3: they do have a duty of care the whole NRL

17
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 3: does for those players for concussion, for injuries. It's a hard,

18
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 3: fast game, yes, but you are expected to protect the players.

19
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 2: What do you think NRL High Tackle Crackdown? Does it

20
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: pass the pub test?

21
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 4: I reckon early to tell, but the way it's going on,

22
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 4: probably not a lot of frustrated people and teams are

23
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 4: playing with eleven players and some of these things are

24
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,320
Speaker 4: really accidental, you know, it's just reflex and that sort

25
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 4: of stuff. I'm thinking it's going to upset more people

26
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 4: and it's going to please them.

27
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 5: Yes, they do.

28
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: In reunion. It's been a long term thing that you

29
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: touched the head. You're having a holiday on there for

30
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 1: a few minutes. So we've got to protect these players

31
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,759
Speaker 1: and there's no need to touch the head. Take out

32
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 1: their legs, they can't run, take out the ball, they

33
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: can't cast it, there's no need to go through the head.

34
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,479
Speaker 5: Look, we have to make rules to get people from

35
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 5: some attacking the heads.

36
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: Of other players.

37
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 5: It's certainly taken away from the enjoyment of the game

38
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 5: and change away results of the One of the things

39
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 5: I'd like to think is that they've got a line

40
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 5: on the jersey and so you can't tackle their loads

41
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 5: above that or taking of players, but take away a

42
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 5: little bit of this enjoyment.

43
00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 2: That's a good idea. So the players of a jersey

44
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 2: with no go zones on it, maybe ladies could wear

45
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 2: that same outfit at a nightclub when they go out.

46
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 2: So the NRL guys, yes, so they know where the

47
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 2: no goes to

48
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 4: Jonesy and Amanda's gamation
