2016 Match Review Committee / Judiciary

[Timbo]

Well at least the MRC made it impossible for Wighton to get suspended.

Wanna bet? They make it up as they go.

People will burn the bunker down if the MRC suspends Wighton.

 

[The_Shield]

Seeing as tho Ennis and Klemmer got off, then Wighton should have nothing to worry about. But knowing what the MRC is like, I'm fully expecting him to get charged

 

[nick87]

There is no way they can walk this back now with Wighton.

 

[Pete Cash]

The loading on a grade 1 shoulder charge should be 100

 

[Walt Flanigan]

There is no way they can walk this back now with Wighton.

Well it is the MRC we're talking about. I'm prepared for some bullsh*t.

 

[AJB1102]

Todd forgot Ennis left Bulldogs, or owed him one?

I'm a Sharks fan and cheering Ennis is available, but I do not understand how.

 

[Timbo]

I loved Ricky's response in the presser.

'Are you concerned about Jack Wighton'

'Not after I heard about Ennis'

 

[Surely]

If they are going to be consistently inconsistent then Wighton is gone

 

[carcharias]

looked like a great shot to me.
so they'll probably suspend him.

The game is f**ked now.

 

[Paullyboy]

When do we find out? I am honestly expecting the MRC to site Wighton. They have proven beyond any doubt that certain clubs are looked after, and I wouldn't expect them to change now. Especially as the NRL are sh*tting themselves at the prospect of another finals series with bugger all of their beloved Sydney clubs playing.

 

[Tommy Smith]

I'm almost certain he'll get charged. Especially after Ennis got off for exactly the same type of incident 18 hours earlier.

The NRL & MRC is just too enraging and incompetent to have us expecting any other result.

Brace yourselves Raiders fans. You know it's coming.

Haha look, it's certainly not beyond the realms of possibility but the NRL dont want the opening 2-3 days of media coverage to centre around showing how they let A, B, C off only to charge D
They want positive vibes coming out about their finals season. I trust common sense will prevail.

No question in my mind if this was week 10, Ennis, Wighton and Klemmer would be sitting out though

 

[Pete Cash]

I actually think by the nrls description of a shoulder charge wightons was verging on legal. It was a heavy contact which makes it look worse but i dont think he locked his arm into his side which is the criteria for a shoulder charge.

 

[Sleep]

If they charge Wighton after letting the other players off, they deserve the shit storm that will follow.

 

[Captain Apollo]

When do we find out?

I'd dare say by lunchtime today at the latest.

 

[Timmah]

Wighton 3 weeks. Grade 2 Shoulder Charge with 2 non similar priors 100% loading.

4 weeks if he fights and loses.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Umm...wtf?

Ennis: No charge at all
Wighton: Gone for the season

 

[nick87]

You've got to be kidding me? Hahahaha

 

[yobbo84]

Hahahaha oh NRL, you never disappoint. What a farce.
