How Many Weeks Will Ricketson Get?

My guess is 0. All he has to do is show up to the judicary in his Roosters colours and they'll show him the door.

Roosters defence -

"Like i say, its the tactics of the Cowboys that makes the opposition take cheap shots. I mean, its the cowboys fault that Ricketson could do nothing all game but make a cheap shot. What, your honour, could he have possibly done in that situation? A cheap shot was the only option.

If anyone is guilty of foul play, its the Cowboys. Theyve been doing it all year, weve got lots of video footage.

10 million your honour, 10 million $$ because Ricko sprained, no, dislocated his finger on Fiens cheekbone.

Its only fair. I trust that the judiciary will see things 'our' way..."

I think he deserves 4-6 weeks. But i wouldnt be surprised if he gets none.

He will get off.... the Roosters will testify that he fell into his forearm... they will have body dynamics specialists in... and it will be the fault of the attackers and they way they are trained to fall into swinging arms.....

If he gets off, the one thing we need around here is Mark Rudd and his Danny Williams antics :D

There was an all-in brawl.

A player was felled and remained on the ground getting attention from the trainer after the brawl.

Yet the video referee was NEVER consulted.....WHY?!?!?!?

i think ricketson, minichello and hodges should all get weeks but of course the pressure of a high atmosphere game like that can change the wind flow across your temples causing slight miscalulations in tackles

this is getting quite far fetched :D

He'll probably be slapped over the wrist with one week but the usual suspects will make out like he is the real victim, being robbed of a GF appearance etc, and demand rules be changed like when they conspired to whinge about how Johns didnt get that Dally M that time because he was suspended...and proceeded to get the rules changed.
