Flanagan predicts NRL shake-up after controversy over Dragons playing with 16 men. Calls for rule changes.
Shane Flanagan is predicting a massive shake-up in the NRL after fans lashed out at the 'disgusting' rule that left the Dragons down a man in their clash against the Roosters.
The Dragons were dealt a blow early on when Moses Suli was knocked out cold in a brutal collision with Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, forcing them to play the rest of the game with only 16 men.
The debate over the 18th HIA rule has reignited following this incident, with many questioning whether changes need to be made to the rules around kick-offs.
