Bellyache's plan

He is sure to exploit the new NRL-condoned rule that you can tackle a Manly dummy half without the ball, thus leaving your marker free to scoop up the ball and score. It is going to be hard to counter this, so I hope Twenty is working on having deputy dummy halfs ready to step in when this occurs.
You forgot the bit about slapping the manly player at the same time.
 
Did the NRL make a comment about that appalling decision? I haven't seen or heard anything. Did anyone get sacked?
If this decision had gone against, say, The Dogs, then it would have caused a riot.

Apparently Toddy said the correct procedure was carried out in that the bunker can only assess from the time the ball is played... wouldn't expect anything less from him. Funny how no one knows this until it's too late, every commentator was confused by it. Maybe it was another 5 minutes before kick off memo special?
 
Storm players wouldn't have finished the tackle at that point, still a3rd and 4th man to come in, then the roll over and rotation of man with the ball
Plenty of time for all our players to get into positions
