Aidan Sezer Controversy Escalates Amid Hip Drop Tackle Incident
In a dramatic turn of events during the Tigers vs. Bulldogs match, Aidan Sezer, the Tigers halfback, sparked controversy with a blatant hip drop tackle on Bulldogs forward Josh Curran.
Amid the intensity of the game, Curran fell awkwardly due to Sezer’s tackle, where replays clearly depicted Sezer putting his weight on the back of the Canterbury player’s legs.
What added fuel to the fire was the decision by referee Kasey Badger, who shockingly decided not to send Sezer to the sin bin, a move that left former player Michael Ennis dumbfounded.
Ennis, in his post-match analysis, expressed his disbelief at the lack of punishment, pointing out that a similar tackle by Izack Tago had resulted in a sin bin during a previous game at the same venue.
The audience’s reaction to the incident was palpable, with fans expressing their astonishment at the referee’s decision to let Sezer off the hook.
