Had the ref called up the first tackle which was one of the most obvious fouls you will see all season then the ensuing melee never happens and the player never runs half the field to get involved.

The only person to blame for running half a field to get involved is the player

Yeah you’re fighting a losing battle here as usual. I’m not saying the player who ran in is entirely innocent however the officials have a duty of care to do their utmost to ensure player well being and safety. As I pointed out the first tackle was possibly even worse than the second one and how the referee and linesman on that side of the field both missed it is baffling.

This is correct. Let the ref unload on Pappas. He may have received his own red.
