They are all doing it. Not as bad or obvious as this one but still.

Embarrassing, a blight on the game

No different to trainer stopping the game for Mitch Kenny fake injury when Eels had them on the ropes. Everyone does it and it’s unfortunate. People want to watch footy not devious tactics from the coaches box.

He’s a giant grub, nobody’s surprised 😂

This bullshit is going on consistently, pretend Crusher and head high tackles. Something needs to be done to fix this. One ref can't see everything, game is too fast, so breaches should be sent to clubs after officials review game.

Bringing the game into disrepute? Not a good look at all.

More bad acting in NRL games than in an episode of Home & Away these days. Need to find a way to eliminate this staying down and grabbing neck to get a penalty. Tough game is not so tough anymore

It's cheating. It's an embarrassment.

Not good for his resume

Low act!!

Not to this - but next year players should be fined for faking injuries!!

No. It’s something the NRL allowed to happen, blind Freddie could see this was going to happen as soon as the “crackdown” happened. The crackdown they could bring in over a weekend, but have to wait until the off-season to discuss things like this………

Until the NRL grows a set and starts charging players for diving it will continue

No. Every man and his dog has done it this year
