Crighton's nose must be made of rubber. Did you notice how it stretched 😀
Old man flanno will be on the whinge path, could be funny.

Any truth to the rumour that 1000s of Dragons fans that were at the game have rung the nrl wanting to give evidence that they all witnessed hom bite the other guys nose (hoping he gets a lengthy suspension)

I would be happy with Flanno out of the team for a while, but Critta can go f**k himself. The amount of times he blew shit out of his nose during the game... get your filthy nose outta people's mouths.

It is 100% Critta's fault his nose was in Flanno's mouth. I reckon we'll see some interesting arguments around Critta being the aggressor, disease spreading actions, mouth guard blunts impact, was his nose bleeding before the incident, is there evidence of teeth mark and does it match Flanno's dental records.

Entertaining hearing with 1-2 weeks is my guess.

Not sure anyone is making excuses, just pointing out that foul play from Crichton played a role.

I agree.

How in the hell does Crighton not get charged with leading with his his head in foul play and a head butt?

Bwaith Canasta must be the match review committee.

7.30pm

Judiciary chairman Geoffrey Bellew has asked the panel members to leave the room. There is legal discussion about the directions that Bellew will provide to the panel about who the onus of proof is on.

Mr Bellew told McCallum and Perenara: “You must be satisfied that it is more probable than not that a bite was inflicted by player Flanagan.”

7.25pm

The NRL's legal counsel is Lachlan Gyles SC said that the onus is on the NRL to establish that there was a bite and once he had done so it was up to Flanagan to prove that it wasn’t intentional.


So they've just decided to reverse the burden of proof and it's on the accused to prove they aren't guilty?

Looks like they are conducting a kangaroo court.
