How many weeks for Pritchard and Kasiano?

[MilkShark]

If Kasiano is let off than a precedent has been set. All players submitting themselves to a tackle before a defender lays a hand on them will be hit with all manner of knees and forearms from here on in.

Very little to like about either incident. While Eastwood's effort was legal, it was unsavoury.

Kasiano and Pritchard should be sitting out next week and perhaps longer. Widdop is a lucky boy to survive that train wreck.

 

[Exsilium]

To be fair both incidents looked ugly. IMO the tackle was complete without the need for Kasiano to come in. Ben Creagh summed it up well when he said it's not in the spirit of the game. l

Pritchard made no attempt to tackle the player and led with the knees, regardless of whether he hit with the shin first it was unnecessary contact and therefore careless. His season is over.

Kasiano will be cited and likely rubbed out, whilst it was not a textbook crusher there was unnecessary pressure applied to the neck, as with Pritchard his main issue will be that it was careless.

it is the nsw judiciary.... and they will want all nsw teams at full strength. both will be let off

Eastwood's leg lock was grubby as, and was a deliberate attempt to take out our play maker, but there's no rule against such play. I just hope karma gets him good at some point in the future.

Pritchard led with the knees. Has to get a week or two.

Kasiano I don't think did anything worthy of suspension. Yes, it was grubby and unnecessary, but it wasn't a crusher, or anything else illegal.

The NSW judiciary that Bob Lindner (QLD!!!) is often part of :roll:

Neither is as dangerous as throwing a water bottle

I didn't realise the footy show panel double up as the MRC. You would have to imagine though that Uncle Todd will make a captain's call on this one.

 

[POPEYE]

Look for the old Rooster penalty count to reappear next week against Todd's Mob as well

 

[Cockadoodledoo]

The Bulldogs fans here are more delusional than Souths fans which is saying something. They would defend Martin Bryant if he played for them.

When you have been up against systematic bias it is fair enough too.. Hopefully one day the NRL will allow the games to be decided by the players and not the officials.

Well shock me :roll:

I thought the MRC did not release charges until Monday?

If that's true, that piece of shit Greenberg has given up trying to even hide this pathetic agenda.

This game is going downhill fast.

 

[lockyno1]

If the two blokes don't get a week it is a disgrace, Burgess copped a week for throwing a bottle!

2 Weeks minimum for both Pritchard and Kasiano. NRL needs to look into the Eastwood tackle. Took Pearce out earlier in the year and has form on the board.

 

[Tinkler]

using legs in tackles should be banned its not judo....

his neck was almost snapped...he could of been killed..

pritchard and kasiano will both get suspended.... eastwood is safe

you just have to look at widdops head in the kasiano incident they way his head bounces up out of the tackle says all you need to know
