Hunt - How many weeks?

[blain]

0, he clearly fell and his shoulder wasnt aiming high at all.

 

[Godz Illa]

The same amount of weeks Andrew Ryan got for KO-ing Ryles last year.

u can see that anasta slipped pretty clearly..his on his knee

i was at the game and thought it shuldnt have gotten penalised but because his shnoz was bleeding it was given.. it kinda reminded me of hunts international debut except that was worse..

channel 9 kept showing the worse possible angle of the incident and made it look like an elbow but looking at this angle it wasnt that bad..this picture just posted could get hunt out of trouble..the other angle shown on the screen or tv made it look terrible and it was the same angle that the ref saw on the big screen to penalise it

the thing is hunt ran in not looking leading with a shoulder. Sure he meant to hit him in the chest but he smacked him in the nose, which can happen when you arent looking. Hence careless high tackle charge

 

[Moffo]

so if someone slips, its ok to do anything to them, at a time when they are arguably in a more dangerous position anyway?

just working through the logic of some people on this forum....

 

[Shorty]

Should be zero,but let's face it - It wasn't a good look,it'll be a week or so.

It's clear many people don't know the rules.

Whether it should be illegal or not is irelevant. Other players in the past have been charged and suspened for tackling players high after the tackled player has fallen/slipped. This should be no different. If it was Anasta tackling Hunt you can bet the Broncos would be having a big-time cry. There is a reason they call them the Baby Broncos. They never stop crying.

Anasta slipped late though, there is no way Hunt could of pulled out of it.

Said by someone having a cry..

Should we call you baby razor then?

Funny how 99% of Roosters fans are straight out saying that it was an unfortunate accident, and its only merkins like yourself who wait for any opportunity to jump on the Broncos and death-ride them.

On the issue of Razor complaining about people crying and whinging? :lol:

"Hey Pot, it's the Kettle, you are so, so, so, so, so, so black!"

 

[Y2Eel]

He should get 1-2 weeks. Anasta was falling, but it's still the defenders responsibility not to take this head off.

Yeah agree 100% SBW was sent of last year for coming in contact with Johns head...

 

[_Johnsy]

Why is every idiot on these forums so one eyed? You wanted Riley Brown rubbed out for a legal hit yet "Paging Mike" should get none for an illegal hit where a precendent was already set with Morley? He'll get 2 weeks.

:lol: :lol: No-one wanted him rubbed out you inbred latte infused princess. Many were saying it was a dog act, a cheap shot, thats it. No-one wnated him rubbed out, I love it, the shoe is on the other foot and your whingeing like the prima dona you are.:lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[JB]

Going by previous tackles where people have been suspended for coming into contact with the head regardless of wether the player was slipping or intent, then yes, maybe 1 - 2 weeks.

I'm even reconsidering my stance on shoulder charges based on recent events. I love the SBW type hits and dont want to see the game go soft, but there seems to be too great a margin for error in these type's of tackles. I doubt we'd see the injuries Anasta and Wing picked up if arms we're used in the tackle.

 

[ozbash]

a handshake would be sufficient.

was the highlight of my night.

 

[kia ora storm]

None...Anasta was falling.

 

[Patorick]

Since when was the bicep an elbow?

I'm changing it to two weeks based on this photo. still high, still reckless and careless.

 

[Brycey]

None, it was accidental...its apart of footy, injuries happen.

Go ask Jason 'this porridge is too hot' Taylor.

 

[kia ora storm]

Not high, not careless, not reckless...Anasta was falling and he copped it in the nose because of the fact that he was falling.

If cutie walks for a few weeks on this then he is unlucky...

 

[NK Arsenal]

none - anasta slipped

It was high due to where contact was made, regardless of Anasta slipping or not. Player could be lying on the ground, if you make contact with the head it's still deemed high.

Reckless, careless? I dont think so.

Does he deserve to go? I'd be just as happy to see him escape any suspension, but i bet the likes of Morley, SBW and a few others would be scratching their heads if he did.
