The match review committee are a joke.
Kasiano is free to play after his shoulder charge, but Teo was charged with a grade 4.
How the f**k was Teos 4 times worst than Kasianos grade one?
Was it because Teo's was more "spectacular"....when BOTH players made contact with the shoulder to the head of the opposition.
Absolute f**king joke.
No suprises to see Glenn Stewart is free to play... i heard there was some big game next weds night

Yeah the Stewart one should have been at least a week, considering he had a fair bit of carry over points.

The system in place is a joke. This is coming from a blues supporter.

I think considering Idris got away with a closed fisted hit to the face of Jamie Lyon a few weeks ago, Glenn Stewart should have felt pretty hard done by if he got charged for that tackle.

Kasiano probably deserved a holiday but Teo's is still the worst I have seen this year. He was rising (feet off the ground in one photo) and at no time was his shoulder ever going to hit anything other than oldmates head.

MRC is a joke though.

Not surprised to see Kasiano free to play.

Bulldogs up against a Gallen and Carney-less sharks (note that the Sharks get ZERO byes before Origins this year).

Another NRL move to f**k the Sharks over.

The MRC simply bow to media pressure. The shoulder charge was the taking point at the time Teo was charged. Teo was a victim of poor timing rather than long term change trying to be instilled by the NRL/MRC.

When has the judiciary ever not been a farce? It has been as long as I've been following the game (since the late 80s).

Leave us be Queenslanders. Its the only win we'll get this series.

Plus, they only hit Queenslanders, which is totally legit. Should be more of it allowed in every day life.
