should be banned for a minimum of 3 weeks.

It's hard enough for umpires to protect the player's head without some players pretending to have their heads slung to the ground!

They should go through the 2 weeks concussion protocol

A lot of players in the NRL were doing this laying on the ground feigning illegal hits to try and milk penalties or slow the game up to halt momentum.

It pretty much stopped when the players were all sent off for HIA's now they try to avoid getting sent off.

Connor Rozee would be banned for life by now if this was a rule
That little punk from Brisbane, Neall. Does it even when he is not tackled
Vlaustin from the tigers apparently too, never gets a free for head high contact, must be trying to drag out a free kick, let's not talk about Baker, cheating sod from Richmond!

So should the ones that go head first into the ground ON PURPOSE to get a dangerous tackle free. It’s become more and more prevalent this season.

Yeah, Merritt tried it on when he was tackled by Vlaustin on Saturday.

What a pathetic little man.
