So different punishment depending if it's a H&A or rep game. We are still playing the same game aren't we? While gameday crowds and TV numbers are up and there are positive vibes around the game, the officiating, judiciary, etc are a joke.Different code table for Origin. Mostly fines til you hit Grade 3.
Correct. The NRL made these changes three years back here:So different punishment depending if it's a H&A or rep game. We are still playing the same game aren't we? While gameday crowds and TV numbers are up and there are positive vibes around the game, the officiating, judiciary, etc are a joke.

I can’t even remember the Smithies one. And seriously, Hudson Young being charged for that is ridiculous. If Seyfarth wasn’t holding down, Young wouldn’t have been thrashing around.Players being charged in games against the tigers but not penalised, iconic

What does Young have against eyes? That's his target every timeI can’t even remember the Smithies one. And seriously, Hudson Young being charged for that is ridiculous. If Seyfarth wasn’t holding down, Young wouldn’t have been thrashing around.
What is it with Englishmen and headbutts?I didnt notice the Smithies one live either, but having seen the replay... he's very fortunate to only get a fine for that.
Perhaps they took into account that the dumb english f**k split himself open and Pole barely flinched haha
