Farcical.
Obviously the sqillions they are pissing away isnt being spent on wordsmiths.

Thanks for the info btw.

Would love to read their reasons as to why Chambers' hit wasn't a shoulder charge

Because it wasn't a shoulder charge.
It was high, and he hit him with the point of the shoulder, but that doesn't make it a shoulder charge.

If S Burgess on DCE wasn't a shoulder charge, then they will never cite anyone for it again.

As part of a change to the Judiciary and Match Review system, a player will be charged if:

• The contact is forceful, and;
• The player did not use, or attempt to use, his arms (including his hands) to tackle or otherwise take hold of the opposing player.

I didn't see Chambers use or attempt to use his arms and hands to tackle or take hold of Pearcce. Did you?

what about the dangerous up ended tackle on mitchell pearce.

Nope. The problem was the wording of the NRL Judiciary code. The Storm's lawyers managed to find a loophole as, for Chambers to attract a suspension he needed to be "convicted" three times to attract a suspension instead of a fine. As he had only been convicted twice, they argued that he was eligible to get away with a fine. The NRL had to reluctantly accept it. They are moving to change the wording of their Judiciary code to correct this for all future occasions.

Ha. That's amazing.

FMD the NRL is amateurish.

I am pretty sure it is one of Cameron Smith's life ambitions to break an opponents neck.

Only if he's not a Rooster . . . if he changed to red/white/blue all would be forgiven

The NRL judiciary is dead. Put a fork in it.

You probably already know this NB, the judiciary agenda is no different than the badly disguised refereeing agenda . . . there are some things, however unfortunate, necessary to manipulate the 'premiership' into a close contest
