Hodges view from the sideline next week

[some11]

Live at the stadium I said he was gone.

You can't lift a bloke onto his head, any conjecture about it is wishful thinking.

 

[BadSport]

Has anyone actually watched the replay?

Look at his right leg... no one's attacking his standing leg and he jumps off it to end the tackle.

 

[Frank_Grimes]

There is no clearer example of someone putting themselves into a dangerous position than what Guerra did last night. He blatantly springs off his leg and dives for the ground.

But Hodges did have his other leg which should probably get a grade 1 and a week off. I wouldn't be surprised if he misses the GF. Tough luck.

The meltdown and howls around here will be delicious if he gets off though.

Veggiepatch might need to have a replacement keyboard lined up.

Can't stand the bloke but after watching the replay a number of times...he plays next week IMHO.

 

[Scapegoat]

Should be charged but he won't be.

I'm actually missing the "forward slash" key from my laptop. The one next to the "NUM LOCK".

The cat must of taken it.

If he gets charged, the meltdown will be awesome.

If he gets off, the meltdown will be awesome.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

With the media the way they are, Walker and Gray will love a Hodges suspension.

+1

 

[STORM.99/07]

the media is making alot of noise about the judiciary being heartless if they suspend him as it is his last nrl game and the GF. they will get him off

 

[Panther Pete]

Hodges deserves a week for no other reason than being the biggest d!ckhead in the game .......actually that honour probably goes to Darius Boyd but Hodges should still get a week anyway.

 

[Dummy Spit Johns]

Hope the grub gets a week so I can't sit back with a few coldies and read the hours of amusement that will flood this thread

 

[_Johnsy]

Personally I don't think he'll be suspended, but if he did, it would be a fitting way for Hodges to finish up IMO.

 

[Scorpio30]

Would be so pleasing to see one of the modern era's greatest grubs miss the GF as his last game....but having just watched a replay...no case to answer

 

[Desert Qlder]

If he gets charged, the meltdown will be awesome.

If he gets off, the meltdown will be awesome.

[Mogsheen Jadwat]

He'll get off imo.

 

[stormbati]

Will get off because of media pressure but I personally don't want him to miss it given its his last game.

 

[POPEYE]

Extenuating circumstances, fine him only . . . doesn't deserve to spend the rest of his career in suspension

 

[phonetic]

Inglis has been milking lifting penalties for a couple of years in a similar fashion. No idea why you'd want to put yourself in that sort of position given what happened to Alex McKinnon, but Guerra clearly contributed to the end result.

However.. Hodges is not without guilt, has an abhorrent record and I'd love nothing more than for him to be rubbed out.

Given the embarrassing inconsistency and recent lack of action at the MRC (Kasiano, Pritchard, Keary) etc, and the commentary already coming out of the usual corners, I think he'll get off. Hope I'm wrong as it would be an insult to us all. But hey I guess we're all used to it now.

 

[TheVelourFog]

The fact it is a gf shouldnt enter into it, but it will
He will get off
