The Hodgson tackle is one of the most brutal tackles i've ever seen. The guy should have gotten about 8 weeks for that.

Been said many times in many threads on this forum but the MRC is a complete joke. Some horrible tackles that should have been heavily penalised have received nothing or next to nothing, while brushing the shoulder of the referee potentially earns you a week off or maybe not.

Zero common sense and zero consistency.

Maloney got off, I bet they'll let James off and Hodgson is missing for a week and out of Dally M contention for that?

What a joke.

Oh the raiders wont contest the charge so he doesnt get any carry over points. If he copped the guilty plea he would have not missed a game. We cant really complain when its our call

Interesting decision
They really don't want to risk him having points in the semis

Hurts his dally M chances significantly

Your joking right. Hodgson got off lightly. He deserves much more than a week. IMO it's the worst tackle of the year. Could of broke his neck.

Plus I doubt Hodgson would of won the Dally M anyway. Yes he had a great start to the year but he was fairly quite for the middle of the season. Similar to Milford.

lol it's because of Melbourne that this sort of tackle even has a name. A week was fair enough.

It's actually the same charge that Cameron Smith got which rubbed him out of the 2008 Grand Final. Smith got 2 games because of 90 odd carry-over points. That tackle was much worse than Hodgson's.

Smiths tackle was no where near as bad as Hodgsons one. Smith pulled thaidays head, Hodgson grabbed and twisted Bromwichs head.

Pete Cash, I fail to see what you find so funny.

Maloney got charged with a grade 2. Hogdson got charged with a grade 1. Thats the joke.

Bet you're not game enough to post video comparisons of the two incidents, can't risk your bias turning into f**kwiticism ol' mate
