The Game 2020 Judiciary Charges

They're calling it a hip drop tackle which they've been penalising for weeks now. Jesse Bromwich missed a game against Parramatta for making a similar tackle on Ikuvalu.

And if people looked up on the same page, Taunoa-Brown from the Warriors got one week for one last week. I didn't notice it during the game, and wasn't until the video was posted above.

The hip drop tackle looks innocuous but it has lead to a number of ankle injuries in the NRL.

"I guess he isn't a big name player" isn't relevant. Crusher Tackles have been upped as of a couple of weeks ago to 200 base penalty, so even a star player being charged with one f**ks them.

Unfortunately for Riki, he picked up priors and carryovers in ISC last season so he's stuck with the 2 weeks and can't plea it down.

So mate, how do you rate the Matterson charge in comparison?

Just saw a replay of the grubby tackle by the Storm player, referred straight to the judiciary. It looks intentional and ordinary.
I thought Paulo was hard done by at first, but now I am on board, grade 1 for the accidental ones, so the players can work on their tackling technique, and throw the book at storm pieces of shit trying to intentionally injure opponents.

You are commenting on grubby stuff, yet you casually left out Matterson.

I see that Luke Thompson got referred straight to the judiciary.
Was he sent off by the bunker when they saw the vision?
