2016 Match Review Committee / Judiciary

Thank you. Well that clearly shows Ennis is in the clear based on the proposed criteria.

Looking at the different stills of Wighton is less clear... he seems to have his arm out just prior to the point of contact, but tucks it in as a protective measure. I guess much of the defence will come down to point of contact.

That photo is absolutely bullsh!t. Blair was already passed Ennis when he hit Green. But you can see in that picture that Blair is in front of him. That is not the moment of impact. There is another picture out there that shows Ennis with his arm tucked in

Yessssss... the photo showing Ennis' shoulder making impact is CLEARLY not the moment of impact.

LOL because I don't buy into conspiracy theory bullshit I'm an apologist. f**k off

I don't buy conspiracy theories either, but its plain as day they've got no f**king idea and do a terrible job at most things. Its age old; RL is the best sport with the worst administration.

You must have 2 stomachs to cope with the amount of NRL cock you swallow.

The NRL could recreate the f**king third reich and Tim Tam would defend them. It's a pathetic display for sure and certain, you can only hope it's all part of some elaborate plan to worm his way into their payroll.

Starting to look more and more like this was a manufactured story from NRL to control the media narrative and take it away from the aerial ping-pong that's on in Sydney this weekend. Back pages like this are perfect, don't be surprised if they try and push the judiciary hearing back a day or two to stretch it out further.

The elbow is clearly not tucked in on contact, it's clear as day right there.

Anyone who accepts that photo of Ennis as proof is just thick.
Maybe they would be interested in buying my bridge?

Either that, or they're going to be serious pissed off that the Telegraph is playing judiciary on their behalf

Yeah, I've got a feeling Wighton will be found guilty as a bit of a f**k you to the Tele's 'moral crusade'.

Ive accepted that he will probably be found guilty. Even if he gets a downgrade that is still two weeks.

How anyone can look at that tackle and think it deserves 2 weeks i do not know. It was clumsy. Wighton over run edwards but it wasnt high or late. Edwards knew contact was coming so he could brace for it.

If he had wacked him around the chops and broke his jaw he would have got a lower base loading

Its been years since the dean young moral panic. Its time to reduce the loading on shoulder charges.

I hate the rule but if that's not what they mean by a shoulder charge then I'm not here.

He should be suspended for stupidity .
So much on the line and he did that.
He is so dumb he should be playing for my team.
