Didn’t deserve 2 weeks for the tackle. Did for carrying on like a f**kwit though.
I don't understand how NRL fans who follow the game relatively closely aren't across how match review works even in a basic sense.

He only got a Grade 1 Careless charge. Normally it'd be a fine (like his teammate Curtis Sironen got). However, AFB had a shitload of priors and carryover points which added up to a 2 game suspension.

Guerra and Ferguson same night in late 2015 from memory - Guerra's was a shoulder charge, Fergo's was a trip.

Earlier in the same season, Sam Moa got off a charge too.

So it seems the standard this year so far is tackle accidentally gone wrong with no intent (most crushers, high tackles) = suspension, deliberate act designed to injure an opponent (eye gouge, stomping) = fine, is that right?

Not sure I like that trend.

You can curb stomp a dude like you are reinacting American History X and your punishment is lose Monday’s lunch money and don’t pass go.

No charges on Sunday's games that I can see.

Maloney and Martin have accepted the early plea for the Hodgson spear - Maloney escapes suspension for that, Martin gets a week.

Maloney will challenge the dangerous contact charge at the judiciary tomorrow night. If he's found not guilty he plays Friday, otherwise he's sitting out a week.

Matulino took the early plea as well and is free to play.

Maloney’s challenging? Lol. It was a disgusting tackle. He’s lucky it was only a grade one.
