Canterbury Bulldogs<\/a> general manager Phil Gould<\/a> has described Dom Young's high shot on Blake Taafe as "pretty blatant" after Roosters<\/a> coach Trent Robinson said a send off was "over the top". <\/p>\n

Young was sent from the field in the 26th minute after knocking out the Bulldogs fullback on impact<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Taafe failed to return to the field while the Roosters winger was given his marching orders. <\/p>\n

Post-match, Robinson believes if the shot warrants a send off then the decision-making needs to be consistent. \ufeff<\/p>\n

"It's not good for Blake, you don't want to see that … (but) it wasn't a swinging arm, it was open handed, it was lower than shoulder height," he said in his post-match press conference. <\/p>\n

"If that's the standard, that's fine but that's a new one for me, I feel like that's lower than what's been sent off before. It just feels like we can set a new standard here again, that's how it feels."<\/p>\n

Pressed on whether he thought it was a sin bin, Robinson agreed before describing the referee's decision as "over the top". <\/p>\n

"Definitely a sin bin, Blake's got concussed from that but again I don't have \ufeffall the (previous) send offs in mind … we've had guys stay on the field, not even go for 10 for less and I feel like that was a bit over the top," he said.<\/p>\n

"If they come out and say that's the new (standard), there'll be a lot more send offs in our game. There should be if that's the case."<\/p>\n

Upon hearing Robinson's comments, Gould disagreed despite his lack of approval for send offs in general. \ufeff<\/p>\n

"I don't particularly like send offs but that \ufeffwas probably one tonight, I think," he said on Nine's coverage. <\/p>\n

"I can't understand the comments from the Roosters coach on that one, it was pretty blatant. I don't like send offs but if there's going to be one that's one."<\/p>\n
