The NRL world was left in uproar after a controversial decision during the Bulldogs vs Warriors clash in New Zealand.
Fans were left fuming at the lack of consistency shown by the league, with a shoulder charge controversy involving Bulldogs captain Stephen Crichton and Warriors' Roger Tuivasa-Sheck stealing the spotlight.
Despite Tuivasa-Sheck being forced out of the game due to the apparent shoulder charge from Crichton, the Bulldogs managed to secure a 34-18 victory.
The Warriors had the lead at halftime, but the Bulldogs came back strong after the break.
In what was supposed to be a memorable game for Shaun Johnson's farewell in New Zealand, the match was overshadowed by the controversial incident.
Tuivasa-Sheck took on three Bulldogs players in the middle of the field, only to be met by Crichton who appeared to execute a shoulder charge without any wrapping motion.
Tuivasa-Sheck struggled to get back on his feet after the hit, leading to heated debates among fans and commentators.
The decision to put Crichton on report added fuel to the fire, with many labeling the whole situation as a "complete and utter farce".
