Carl Webb to serve suspension in trial matches

[Eelementary]

Good thing we have a video review committee.

The line between enforcer and reckless is fine indeed but I have no problem with it. The Axe never needed to go high to have blokes watching out for him.

I'm not saying his tackle didn't deserve to be put on report, because it probably did.

But 9 weeks for a tackle like that is ridiculous.

But I think Fui is GENERALLY a clean player - he does make the occassional head-high out of excitement though.

Fui is able to do so. There is no drama there Eelementary. It is not one rule for one and one rule for others. Any player who has a suspension that carries over into 2006 can use 2 trials and 2 trials only as part of their suspension. How many weeks did Fui get again? He has served 2 with the manly and NQ semi...2 for the trials coming up

Whats the rule if a team plays 3 or 4 trials?

[Stranger]

a player can use only 2 trials maximum as part of their suspension.

Can the player play in the other trials then?

I think it depends on of his suspension is then served, also there is I believe NRL sanctioned trials, and then theres trials that arent sanctioned. I think sanctioned trials can be used to cut out suspension time, and non sanctioned games suspended palyers can take part in...I may be and probably am wrong though.

Carl Webb is a androtop. And the NRL are even bigger androtops for letting this tosspot off with 6 weeks for an 18 week crime.

Its pathetic that he can serve his suspension in trial matches.

Webb is teh biggest rednecked yobbo dick in the NRL. I await for his fat oversized head to be smashed this season. The reason the Cowboys are hateable. This fat c^^t AND Thirston the pool boy..

:lol:

Redneck?

Dont think so

You know what Adz you dumb f**k? If it was Crocker last year or Morley that were trying to serve out their suspensions in a trial, youd be all over it like a rash on a Fyshwick mole.

The thing thats wrong with league today, is 2 faced f**kwits like you. Call a spade a spade for once in your life you soft c&^t. This fat f**k from Townsville should not see out his suspension with trials. The Cowboys arent as loved as idiots like you believe.

I thought it was Cayless??

But you forget melon.......


His brother topped himself a few years ago. So we all have to feel sorry for poor Webb

[/sarcasm]


I thought it was stupid that Ricko could serve his suspensions in trials in 05. So i'm sure as f**k not going to feel any different about Carl" i should be gone for 18 weeks" Webb

 

[ParraDude_Jay]

People are missing the point. Carl Webb is serving his suspension during the NQ Cowboys trials, but is able to trial with the Young Guns so he doesn't miss out on match fitness. If Webb can do that, then why can't Fui trial with out Premier League team? Ridiculous. Plus Webb should have got at least 15 weeks for his shot. Fui got 9 for a reckless (or was it careless) high tackle that bumped the top of Barnes' head, and Webb king hits a bloke and got 6? Yeah, great stuff there.

Justice would be done if Webb was injured during the Young Guns' trials, and I wouldn't shed a tear if it happened, the f**king grubby mongrel deserves it.

 

[brendothejet]

I think i agree with everyone.

fui got a harsh deal, Webb is a fat merkin, the roosters are hated, the rule exists for everyone.

that's pretty original stuff dazza62workingbraincells.. Hear that at the sheltered workshop aye?

 

[Eelementary]

I know it may seem biased because I'm an Eels fan, but 9 weeks for Fui's tackle was a tad harsh. As I recall, the video evidence suggested the hit wasn't that bad...

I agree that the game needs to be cleaner and safer - but I think the system is flawed.

I refer back to the year 2002 (I think), where Cayless got suspended for hitting Matt Sing high. But reviewing the video footage, you can see that:

* Yes, Cayless's arm DID swing, but at Sing's chest.

* Sing was being tackled from behind as well, so he was falling forward.

Combining the two, it was obvious to most people that Sing fell into Cayless's swinging arm - had he not fallen forward, the arm would have collected his chest.

Subsequently, Nathan got a few weeks for it.

And it applies to everyone - I've seen some guys been let go for heinous tackles, but others punished for tackles which weren't that bad.

yes i did, yesterday when i dropped you &your mother off there
why dont you go &forward that to the roosters you cockeyed sooky f**kwit

Obviously there are big flaws with the judicary. Always has been, always will be. The weighing of points for previous offenses, no matter how minor, is flawed, to the extent that players such as Ruben Wiki and Simon Woolford are getting lengthly suspensions for tackles that really merit no more than a penalty in the game.

As a referee, I see Webb's punch on Hoffman in this way:

1. It was intentional
2. It was not part of the actual play - Hoffman did not have the ball
3. Webb was not provoked by an illegal act by Hoffman - although Webb later claimed it was a grapple tackle, Hoffman was not penalised by the referee, Tim Mander.

In my opinion, Webb should have been sent off and referred straight to the judicary without charge. Minimum of 12 weeks.

Webb is a very, very, very lucky person not to have been suspended for longer - essentially, it was assault. If he did that off the football field, he would be looking at much more than six weeks! The fact he serves his suspension in trials, but gets to play anyway, albeit against substandard opposition, is laughable.

In any case, the Cowboys played much better once he got suspended! In my opinion, he is much more useful to the Cows as an interchange player. He is not the be-all and end-all of the Cowboys forwards now that Rauhihi is catching colds in England.

Melon, you're entitled to your opinion. ;-)

IMO, Cows would have the permiership if Webb played... hows that for a wrap?
