Judiciary Charges: Johns facing four weeks

Anyway, my main problem with this is not Johns getting a suspension, that fair enough (3 weeks is a tad harsh). It's more that NOTHING will happen to Simpkins or Chechin, who made one of the worse official mistakes i've seen, like countless other weeks. That kind of thing does not happen when the easy descisions such as this are made correctly, fix that and you will fix the dicipline problems.

However bloody stupid by Johns

Personally I think that this is a joke. :x In no way am I condoning what Joey said BUT the thing is that referees and officials are sworn at in every game. If someone else of a lesser statute in the game said the same thing would they be facing a 3 possibly longer suspension, I think not. In my opinion the NRL has set a VERY DANGEROUS precedent on this matter. In the coming weeks we will see if the NRL will put the same penalty Jphnsy's facing to any other player that does a similar thing. I think not. They are just out to make an example of Joey. Come on NRL get a reality check.
Again, if he didn't have a bad record he would have got only 2 weeks. His prior offence and carry over points bumped it up to 3-4.

Yes, but Johns has done it repeatedly and has been warned and kept doing it.

That somehow excuses it? wtf?
Irrelevant, it wasn't directed at an oficial

If they were repeat offenders and were warned to stop doing it and didn't, then they wouldn't have many excuses left
Were you on the field..he was told repeatedly..once in a different game

Im saying that checchin got it wrong by not having the balls to make the call..un obstructed view

Not irrelevant..same word but because its a happy.."f.."

Whatever mate. Next you'll be spouting that he is the son of god or something. He did it. He copped the plea. It's there in black and white.

Or Joey needs to learn to not be a brat. He needs to learn to act like a role model. If Joey said nothing, which he should have, nothing would have been said. He needs to respect referees!

Agree 100%
Who cares about what Kidwell says he didnt say it to an official

I am referring to the different games he has been warned in...

Apparently on NRL Deluxe the NRL said that his view was obstructed

maybe the nrl should take the microphones away from the sideline and in play so what swearing does occur stays on the field and not in the lounge room for all the kids watching to hear

Ahahah thanks for the backup bro. I understand some people on here cant see some things clearly

You'll find they are all knight fans that are disagreeing. I think they got it spot on. 2 weeks with a clean record. It goes up because of joey's bad record. Too bad.

It's good to see someone with some common sense in here.

with hagan getting a 5k fine I'd like to know if Grimaldi will get the same as his comments on sports tonight were a mirror image of what Hagan said
