The NRL are cracking down on the shoulder charge but the judiciary aren't. Confused? So are the players but we try break things down on this week's edition of The League Fix.

Hosts Sam Ackerman and Warriors great Jerome Ropati rip into the inconsistencies and mixed messages that saw three players acquitted of shoulder charge offenses, what can be done to clear up this murky area before it costs someone dearly in the playoffs?

Speaking of the finals, you wouldn't take the odds on the Warriors being there. Jerome gives us an insight into the mentality within the camp after watching their season disintegrate, and the boys weigh in on the online calls for blood – should coach Andrew McFadden get the sack?

The boys also look at the team everyone is hoping doesn't make the playoffs – who will have the big names looking over their shoulders?

Come get your fix!
