Manly may win but Williams and Matai are gone

[Danny-Boy]

If you don't think Williams high shot was intentional you're in desperate need of a wank. Matai I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt.

Nah I was referring to the Matai incident.

:lol:

where have these Manly whingers been all year?

in the last few weeks they have invaded with non stop bitching and moaning

Manly fans are celebrating, you're the only one bitching and moaning.

So you think Williams intentionally attacked a players head in a Preliminary Final which we were going to win and risk suspension for the GF? Gee some people are blind. No doubt it was high but 99% of high shots are accidents, just like this one.

 

[Spot On]

Can anyone list the players suspended for incidents similar to the Matai one?

How about players not suspended for it? Gibbs is the only one that comes to mind that has been suspended for it.

Suspended isn't the issue, if Matai had been charged he would have missed a game. So you need to look at who was charged for it.

Tbh, this sets a dangerous precedence for legs sliders; I hope the judiciary know what they are doing.

Dangerous precedent was set ages ago when Slater started sliding in feet first. Nobody needs to have a hissy fit now that it is a Manly player not being suspended for it.

 

[Big Pete]

Got to love Manly.

B***h and moan to get the rule introduce and then claim it's not an issue when they're guilty of it.

Good on 'em, we'll be in for a good grand final and there won't be any excuses.

 

[M2D2]

That was disgusting. Typical NRL Judiciary. :lol:

Perfect example of the inconsistency.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

Good, logical decision.

Yeah that will do.

Announced almost 2 hours ago.

Hardly a rort, no surprise. T Rex is a clean skin and Matai's was innocuous (particularly compared to his normal behaviour).

Typical...seems the judiciary are looking after Manly again.

'Accidents' shouldn't prevent pair playing grand final: QC

Slater does it every game, it's obviously not punishable

 

[Beachy Eagle]

Williams copped a grade 2 and perfect history sees him free, and they couldn't find a charge for Matai based on previous similar attempted tackled over the past 2 years.....
Where is the rort?
