Tripping in tackle?

Post: # 1785159Post saintbrat »

I noticed this when watching the replay and given the discussion on tripping recently wondered where this sits.
Puopolo used his legs to take Newnes legs out from under him in tackling--

haven't seen it in others but will keep an eye out now-

I agree 100% Bratty. There have a couple of instances this season of VERY sus-looking tackles. Well noted!

That's your classic Judo throw and since he's using his leg to trap Newnes leg, to then pull him off balance then yes, technically he's tripping him. Doubt the league will do anything about it though.

Good pickup SB. Very dubious tackling technique.
