Melbourne coach Craig Bellamy has pleaded for Brandon Smith‘s hip-drop tackle to not be judged with the “hysteria” of the week in mind, after the Storm forward was reported in his side’s win over the Titans on Friday night.
Smith was reported for performing a hip-drop tackle on Titans captain Tino Fa’asuamaleaui in the 29th minute of the Storm’s 32-14 win in Melbourne.
