Are you in favor of the refs rewarding the offensive player every time he initiates contact? (alien.top)

with a foul call? I understand using your hips or shoulder to create separation is part of the game and as a defender if your not strong enough to take the contact then oh well. But also as defender you are entitled to your position. Where do you guys stand on this ?

No. But that's been the league for too long sadly. I remember when Hibbert popularized the "principal of verticality", but that didn't seem to apply to everyone, and it's certainly not upheld all the time...or most of the time to be honest.
