So des reckons Reynolds will only be charged for the high tackle

Reynolds charged for kick and trip, not high tackle.

what a joke, pathetic thing is if he fights it it'll probably get down graded and he'll miss less than 3. And that's with a 20% loading on top of carry over points.

Well done NRL apparently you can kick someone in the face and then trip someone in the same game and if you have no carry over points you'll miss two f**king weeks.

I wish I could say I was surprised considering what they let him get away with during origin.

Our refs are a joke and the judiciary an even bigger joke.

:lol:

you won't see a worse trip in your lifetime, that was blatant and reckless.. the trip on it's own is worth 4 weeks but then you take into account he kicked a bloke in the head and tackled another guy high.. absolutely farcical

Judiciary doesn't have any guts, but this isn't exactly news after the Origin farce.

Doesn't really worry me as a Broncos fan because we already received the benefit from Reynolds brain explosion but I'm as confused as ever when it comes to the judiciary.

So deliberately kicking a player in the leg is only marginally worse than instinctively putting your foot out when you get beat? Yeah, bullshit.

Wouldnt want to see a Grade 5 trip if that's a Grade 2.

the same argument was raised with his throw in Origin but a lot of people ignored that simply because of the state he plays for.. if Barba suffered a broken leg then Reynolds would of gotten 8 weeks

They should make the judiciary publically start reading these charges and give explanations as to why they are biased soft c**ks with no spine to speak of

If Barba was carted off with a season ending injury, Reynolds season would be over too. The judiciary is reactive, rather than proactive.

This ^^^^

Had the Broncos pulled Barba from the match and placed under an "injury cloud" till the weekend Reynold's season is over

Not sure Brisbane got the benefit of anything here pete. Thaiday is apparently more hated than Reynolds because of his jersey (no surprise) and his being kicked has reflected worse on him in the minds of the intelligentsia around here. If the roles had been reversed and Sam kicked Reynolds can you imagine the furore?

I can't help thinking a few crisp punches to Reynolds stupid doss-eyed face after the trip, followed by a send-off at that moment would have been better justice. But these days niggling little turds like Reynolds have a free hand to do what they like without fear of retribution.

His tears in the sheds will have to suffice.

Looks identical to the Reynolds incident, but done by anyone other then Reynolds. This guys has had so much luck with the judiciary it's ridiculous.

That's grade 4 at least.

Regarding the trip, I believe if it is regarded as trip it gets a lower penalty than if it was regarded as a kick (striking with the foot with intent)

I dare say he got a week for each incident.

The easier they go on Reynolds the more people will realise Greenberg is looking after his mob, I'm happy if he gets off scot free
