Dragons player Jaydn Su'A is looking at a significant suspension after receiving a red card for a dangerous high tackle during his team's defeat against Souths.
Su'A became the first player sent off since Justin Olam back in August 2024, as he collided with Murray's head in a reckless manner.
Damien Cook, the captain of the Dragons, expressed that he didn't think there was any intent behind Su'A's actions.
"I think he just got it wrong," Cook stated.
"I can see what he was trying to do, but he just got it completely wrong.
"I knew what he was trying to do and make a difference and get the ball and maybe force an error when we were down this end."
The upcoming weeks could prove challenging for both Su'A and the Dragons as they navigate this setback.
The ramifications of such incidents will likely spark discussions about player safety and the enforcement of game rules.
With high-profile incidents like this, the league's response and disciplinary actions are under close scrutiny.
As the Dragons look to regroup, their captain's insights provide a glimpse into the team's sentiments regarding the situation.
