Judiciary Charges 2019

[Saxon]

Assuming this was in fact contact with the shoulder, which is quite doubtful, what is the rationale for a shoulder to the body to be chargeable anyway? Player safety? Has any player ever been injured by a shoulder to the body? And if it is player safety, why is it now OK to do it on a player trying to score a try?

NRL have opened a can of worms on this.

Well, there was this:

Annesley wants to suck Ponga's donga.

i thought it should have garnered a grade 1 charge, but also felt it was boarderline in terms of penalty sufficient.
So I dont have have a huge problem with Ponga not being charged in a vacuum, the trouble is we'll see something similar attract a charge within 2-3 weeks

the inconsistency is really astounding.

 

[Lebbo73]

Good decision. Braced for impact as Chee Kam was pushed toward him by Hunt.

Hope Chee Kam's okay.

I don’t like agreeing with a mod but here we are

So if the roles are reversed and Chee Kam hits Ponga in exactly the same way, how many weeks does he get? Three, four?

Jakey Bae free to play.

Judiciary's cooked.

That's bad even by their standards.

Pangai also faces a grade two charge but for a careless high tackle in the 27th minute on Titans winger Phillip Sami.

He would miss a week with a guilty plea or two weeks out if he fought the charge and wasn't cleared.

At least he got a charge I suppose...better than the true golden son.

 

[BadnMean]

Haven't seen it because I'd rather stab myself in the eye than watch Melbourne wrestle or Manly win- but there wasn't much in the Isaac/Cotric tackles to split them (apart from the fact the ref was already copulating the Warriors so hard he couldn't possibly copulate them any harder), was Jakes any better/worse?

Not gunna lie, even as a born and bred Sea Eagle, I think that Jake has gotten extremely lucky with that result..

Makes up for AFB getting raped earlier in the season for touching Pearce's head.

 

[soc123_au]

I think Jake got lucky because he obviously isn't a grub. That shouldn't be relevant though. He really should be looking a few weeks minimum.

Cotric is a grub?

I dont think Cotric is particularly grubby. Or Kikau for that matter. But Jake is regarded as a kind of anti grub and it gets pumped by the media how much of a nice bloke & clean skin he is.

Hmm, when you put it that way...

...suspend Ryles.

 

[Mikehnz]

I'm pretty strapped for trades in Fantasy & Jakey T is in my team, so all good. But yeah.. that was 2 weeks worth easy. he's just lucky Jahrome tucked his shoulder.
