Manly/Storm fight

[M2D2]

Brett should have gotten longer.
Only manly fans will differ on that.
But everyone else pretty much got what they deserved. Glenn and Blair are goooooooooone.

 

[ceagle]

No.

It's his fault he committed a dog act.

It's the NRL's fault they were too lenient.

He should have been referred with a striking charge.

So they should after suspending him for 4 weeks after they jumped the gun

I guess the MRC does have better footage to look at than the youtube videos most people here have based their judgements on? Reasonable outcome imo.

 

[MacDougall]

How the f*ck did the match review committee miss the dog shot from Slater on DCE? Seems that Slater can get away with anything.

Because not every person in Australia is a jealous prick with a chip on his shoulder. Maybe they gave Slater a reprieve for the quick thinking and kindness he showed David Williams? Moron.

Bretts hands were open. Watch it again, he tried to grab at Blairs shoulders to drag him to the ground.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

The NRL owes him nothing in terms of a get out clause.

Yes fool but that doesn't matter when there is an actual head high tackle? If you whack a bloke in the head aiming at the air next to him it's still a high tackle, but apparently when it's during a fight and not actually in the game it's not as bad? A JOKE! Pull your head in.

But what is your talk of Karma about? Karma has returned it favor now.

David Fa'alogo. Dog act but he didn't run 30 metres to land it on Braith.

Stewart ran 30 metres and had nothing in mind but taking Blair's head off and if he'd have connected would have shattered the blokes jaw.

Absolute f**king cowardly dog act and lucky for Blair the bloke missed.

I don't normally agree with a Roosters supporter but... this.

You already said you didn't see it moron. It was no different to what Trent Hodkinson got 2 weeks for earlier in the year. Add loading for Slater and he would have got 3 weeks. The fact he has one decent act in a long history of dog acts shouldn't help his case.

How on earth does Adam Blair get charged twice, yet Glenn Stewart avoids a striking charge? I saw Glenn Stewart throw plenty, yet land only a few. It's still striking is it not?

Me thinks they simply forgot about the charge, or someone forgot to take the minutes properly. Lazy merkins.

I'm still puzzled by Brett's Stewart light charge. Of anyone, I thought he was going to be in the most strife.

 

[M2D2]

I think they are saying and this is just a theory.
Blair got striking for his uppercuts in the first fight.
Blair/Stewart got charged for fighting in the second fight.

 

[firechild]

The striking charge is for the initial fight, Glenn never threw a punch in the first fight. The contrary conduct charges are for the 2nd fight.

 

[Whos Ya Daddy]

I expected Brett would get a slap on the wrist and they would look the other way in regards to Slater.

It happened.

Who is actually surprised by that?

 

[Lowdown]

And...how on earth is Brett Stewart not charged with a separate striking charge.

Again - he's fist struck Adam Blair's head, causing him to clutch at it and fall to the ground.

:crazy:

 

[BunniesMan]

B Stewart got off because the NRL didn't feel like dealing with another 3 years of whingeing from Manly.

i think the charge would be from the uppercut from the side of the 1st brawl

 

[ceagle]

A Lot of bitter fans dissapointed to see B.Stewart get off with one week.

 

[gronkathon]

I also believe they will end up with similar susspensions. Even though the matter is referred to the judiciary I see Stewart getting a larger suspension from that incident than Blair.

I say this because of the slow walk and several changes of direction
