Leota’s tackle was just as bad as Ese’ese but he’s only charged with grade 1?

The top teams definitely being looked after by the MRC it seems.

Because it was deemed foul play. I don't necessarily agree with the call myself, but it was a penalty at the time.

Fancy complaining about it when you have +114837234982742986495875345 differential and won the game 42-12 :joy:

Where was the complaint in the comment you quoted?

f**k you're boring...

Maybe, but you haven’t refuted my point. Leota’s contact was direct to the head and forceful. Under the terms of the crackdown he should have been sent and receiving a much higher charge.

Rules for some....

I thought he'd get a grade 2. The Ese'ese one is comparable to the Jack Hetherington one, a good old fashioned coathanger. I didn't see the charge yet but same grade as Jack I would say.

Canberra prop Josh Papalii is out of Origin I after accepting a three-game suspension while another nine players have been charged by the match review committee on Monday.

Dragons trio Josh McGuire, Mikaele Ravalawa and Tyrell Fuimaono are facing lengthy bans along with Titans forwards Tyrone Peachey and Herman Ese'ese.


McGuire is facing a ban of 5-7 games for dangerous contact for a hip-drop tackle on Storm winger Josh Addo-Carr, Ravalawa (2-3 matches) was pinged for a grade-one shoulder charge while St George Illawarra forward Tariq Sims (1-2) could also be suspended for grade-two dangerous contact for a hip-drop on Melbourne utility Tyson Smoothy.

McGuire was also charged with a careless high tackle for his hit on Justin Olam, which was deemed a grade-one offence, which carries a fine of $2600-$3450 due to his poor judiciary record.

Ese'ese, who was sent off for his high hit on Panthers winger Brian To'o, is looking at 3-4 matches after being charged with a grade-three careless high tackle while Peachey's crusher tackle on Liam Martin means he will be banned two weeks unless he proves his innocence.

Penrith duo Moses Leota and Dylan Edwards are facing fines - Leota has been given a grade-one dangerous contact charge and Edwards a grade-one contrary conduct charge.

Edwards's charge arose from the aftermath of the tackle that resulted in Ese'ese being sent off.

Melbourne prop Christian Welch ($1900-$2250) was the other player charged from Sunday's games for dangerous contact on Blake Lawrie.

Papalii was sent off for a high tackle on Tui Katoa and received a grade-three charge, which means the Raiders prop will miss three matches with his early plea. He risked a five-match ban if he was found guilty at the judiciary hearing.

He will be unavailable for Queensland for the State of Origin series opener on June 9.

Lol reading the Storm Dragons game thread I expected to see 5+ charges for Melbourne and 0 for Dragons. Never change LU.

All up in a record-breaking NRL magic round:

24 charges across 22 players (McGuire and Riki both charged twice).

Over $25k in fines, and 25 weeks in suspensions IF all players take early pleas.

Josh McGuire is a flog and pretty grubby player, but 5-7 weeks for that is crazy.
I know he has priors and all that jazz which probably added to his time, but he is just tackling someone from behind to get them to the ground. I don’t even know if it should have been a penalty.

I can accept that putting up the bumper bars is a penalty, but it should be a penalty every time, not only when a try is scored and the bloke in the bunker is trying to bignote himself.

The other thing is that the bunker though it was chargeable, so it was put on report. But he wasn't charged and maybe it shouldn't have been called back in the first place.

It should be a penalty every time it’s just as bad as a high tackle. That is something that needs to be outlawed

That was ultra dangerous he’s lucky JAC hasn’t done his ACL with that move.
