SENT OFF: Sharks winger lucky to walk away from horrific spear tackle as Raiders star marched
“Dangerous tackle by Kris, he’s landed on his head. Katoa’s catch is fantastic and Kris’s tackle is going to come under some serious scrutiny,” Andrew Voss said on Fox League.
“This is a dangerous tackle, he’s landed on the top of his head, precedent would suggest a send off and I can’t see any other avenue for the referee here.”The crowd then started chanting “off, off, off” and referee Grant Atkins had no choice but to march the Raiders winger. Canberra are playing finals but Kris’ season is almost certainly over with the match review committee likely to hand down a lengthy ban on Monday morning.
Katoa was able to continue and Cronulla took just one minute to take advantage of the extra man when Braydon Trindall scored down the other end before also Ramien crossed to make it 20-6 in the 64th minute.SPORTS
