2017 Judiciary & Match Review

[skeepe]

Gee Thaiday got lucky. Is a shoulder charge really worse than deliberately trying to injure someone through a non-football act?

 

[Pete Cash]

Or players can not do shoulder charges...I know it seems like a novel idea but use your arms, and you have no problem!

It's a pretty innocuous hit to rub a guy out for two weeks.

The nrl should want our stars on the field as much as possible. The changes to the loading this year were a positive start. A grade 1 shoulder charge isn't a big deal

 

[Canard]

So was Milf and Thaiday cited for their respective Shoulder charges on Thursday night??

Both would have been provoked and/or defending themselves.

Storm players who were on the receiving end should be cited for being mean to Bronco's players.

Poor Bronco's players.

Waiting to see the charges from Souths game....

 

[Owen Da Saints]

WTF ?

Weak as f**king piss.

Bit like his punching.

He should be done for a minimum of 2 months. That might just be the worst I've seen from the judiciary, and that's really saying something.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Lol you get 3 weeks for an innocuous crusher tackle

 

[Michael_Buettner]

100% correct ruling

Those saying otherwise should leave it to those with the expertise & authority

What would you know?

 

[BestHookerRein]

I'd give Burgess 10 weeks for his shit punching skills

 

[no name]

2 weeks each for Gurgess and Hunt, the same amount that Taumololo got.

 

[Michael_Buettner]

No one has ever been suspended based on punching technique.

What you think is irrelevant.

 

[Chief_Chujo]

Haha what a joke

 

[no name]

Same suspension as Taumololo......
I know LoLo challenged his but the two incidents are totally incomparable

 

[no name]

2 weeks each for Gurgess and Hunt, the same amount that Taumololo got.

Misread the article, Hunt facing 4, Gurgess 2.

 

[Perth Red]

Don't think it was a deliberate elbow, he swung out to push him and missed with his palm and connected with elbow. Two weeks is fair. If it had been just befor RLWC it would have been ten weeks probably.
