So is this it, then or does the NRL mete out its own punishment? Using Mitch Pearce and Spencer Leniu as I guide, he’d get banned for the season and a 500k fine, yeh-nah.

I said it earlier, if Mam gets a lesser suspension then Leniu that’s an absolute disgrace. What Mam did is thousands of times worseSo is this it, then or does the NRL mete out its own punishment?

Surely they can't. It's unavoidable given Ezra was involved in that and it's inevitable the comparison will happen.I said it earlier, if Mam gets a lesser suspension then Leniu that’s an absolute disgrace. What Mam did is thousands of times worse
Why didnt they indeedI know everyone's talking about the fine and the suspension but to me the issue is the charges. The judge can only lay down punishment for the crimes he was charged with. Why the f**k didn't the cops hit him with a slew of driving offences, Operation of a vehicle causing grievous bodily harm, Dangerous operation while affected by an intoxicating substance etc. etc. its on camera for f**ks sake and it look terrible. Politicians complaining about the punsihment need to ask the police some questions.
Different jurisdictions.Why didnt they indeed
Either the injuries aren't as severe as reported or bRoNcOs InFlUeNcE
Meanwhile Sandon Smith from notable small club the Roosters was charged appropriately
.....
But what is the reason for the Ute Ezra was driving to cross over to the wrong side of the road ?
Was it being stupid. The cocktail of drugs
He fell asleep. Or distracted. Phone use?
It’s okay, he has had his license taken off him, he won’t be back behind the wheel again for a few months.
I can understand the outrage and agree Mam got off lightly compared to the kind of punishments the general population would like to see for this sort of thing. From what I've read though this seems like a pretty standard punishment for what he was charged with. People keep complaining that the punishment is lighter than other charges such as looking at your phone, but that's a law problem, not a favouritism problem.Different jurisdictions.
There have long been suggestions that QLD police are... On good terms with the broncos.
NSW police has their issues but I've never really heard of them being chummy with footballers.
Either way, QLD police definitely should be explaining why more severe charges weren't brought to the table. Maybe the injuries weren't as severe as reported but unless they were non existent I don't see any justification to not bring reckless GBH. His actions were reckless, that cannot be argued and fairly minor injuries can be defined as GBH.
Also and not sure if this has been posted yet but he has had his license suspended 3 times in 2 years. He is a serial menace on the road.
