Judiciary Charges 2019

[Tommy Smith]

Papa’s maybe not, Burgess’s definitely.

Also, can we sack the clown in the bunker who said it was a shoulder to the head? I’d forgive the on-field officials if they got that wrong, but he was only penalised and put on report after a tip from the bunker.

The bunker ALWAYS overreact to hard onfield hits.

They must love a nanny state.

Both of Keary's charges, the penalities (guilty or early plea) are just fines.

Pathetic. A $1500 fine for a deliberate swinging arm to the head

Yeah. I’m sorry, but if you come in with a high swinging arm on a player that is already being held by two of your teammates, that’s not careless. It’s reckless.

Keary has only been charged once.

Similar to Billy Slater last year, I’m glad he’s not missing the GF. However I really don’t understand how a guy can deliberately swing an arm at a players head, collect him flush, have the (key) player miss the last 55 minutes of a game, and the sole punishment is a penalty. It was probably the single most deliberate swinging arm I’ve ever seen, when you look at it it’s even a striking charge.

He did 3 things in that tackle

Grab hair
High
Rubbish on the face

And

Storm lose a play for the rest of the match

 

[MilkShark]

Raiders should make sure keary fails HIA next weekend

Luke’s copped his fair share already. Got to admit I’m surprised Kaufusi failed his HIA. It’s Keary ffs. I guess a grown man can be mauled by a Chihuahua

Should have been a week , deliberate and a hair pull.

Yeah well my mrs is half my size but if she forearms me in the face I’ll go down too haha

 

[skeepe]

It’s alright. If anything, the MRC did us a favour. Now they’ll have no excuses when we crush them.

Yep, he’s lucky they treated the entire tackle as 1 charge.

There was really 3 charges in there.

What was Burgess’ punishment for his shot on Moylan?

 

[Chook Norris]

Are people seriously comparing Burgess hair pull with Keary's? The two are in very different contexts. One is in the motion of a tackle, executed in a split second whilst off balance; one is post a tackle, executed on someone who is not even moving.

The high tackle grading is a different story

Was a free shot to the chin, kafusi was held at the time, decent wind up on the swing too

They should target Tedesco and Cronk with swinging arms

Would only cost $3K, they won’t be put on report or sent off

Money well spent to increase your chances of a premiership

Yep, it’s what storm tried to do to townsend in 2016 with their retiring winger.

Worked a treat for the Storm in the 2007 GF too.

And who can forget Ellery Hanley getting taken out by that grub Terry Lamb in 1988.

This is not a new concept.
