Judiciary Charges 2019

[Vic Mackey]

McGuire is going to keep getting away with it until he eye gouges Ponga or a Burgess

 

[bileduct]

I mean, of all the people to eye gouge, fair enough, but that's his second in the space of a couple of months.

Utter bullshit.

Holy shit, I saw video of this this morning and for some reason thought it was old footage. He did it again? And got off with a fine?

f**king ridiculous!

At this stage he's basically Nick Frost in Hot Fuzz and I assume all he has to do is deliver a Black Forest Gateau to NRL HQ every time he is naughty.

This.
100% this.

In one of the links above it says players are only allowed two fines per season, then it automatically goes to suspension territory.

I could be way off the money here, but I seem to recall a player copping 12 weeks or so for an eye gouge back in the early 1990s/late 1980s.

Billy Johnston from the Dragons maybe?

How times have changed...

Steve Linnane in ‘87, copped 20 weeks.

Which is the way it should be.

Now you can trip blokes, you can eye gouge, and you can headbutt. And you’ll barely have to hand over your lunch money.

Not easy to see but pretty obvious what the cat is up to.

That's the problem - shitty camera angles, blurry rubbish.

To me that's an eye gouge but it's not good enough to actually give him a full charge. Young's was a bit more obvious. McGuire appears to be very good at obscuring what he's doing.

Someone needs to gouge out McGuire’s good eye so he knows how it feels

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Mcguire has previously said he likes animals more than people.

The funny thing is that people like Mcguire are the reason I tend to agree with that statement.

Deflection level @ 100%
The MRC and Judiciary give you there thanks.

That was REALLY bad though. Greg Alexander had to have surgery. I also seem to recall Les Boyd getting a season for gouging Billy Johnstone.

Nice one, I knew Billy Johnston was involved in an eye gouge incident somehow !!!!

Deflection?

WTF are you on? I said I think it's an eye gouge.

 

[skeepe]

Hahaha. They’re not even trying to hide it anymore. The system is broken.

If McGuire cops the same charge as Young, he’s looking at 15 weeks thanks to his priors, assuming they consider them similar charges. Instead he cops a measly fine because he doesn’t play for Canberra.

 

[carcharias]

Shouldn’t someone like Greenberg be questioning this penalty?

After all he is meant to be in charge.

Timmah says it's got nothing to do with Greenberg

Well
We all probably think that Timmah thinks the sun shines out of Greenberg’s arse because he used to work for the dogs.
Not sure if it’s true
But we think it is.
