R22 Judiciary Charges

[bottle]

Embarrassing.

Enjoy the TV deal. It's the last one.

:lol::lol:

The game is dying.

 

[East Coast Tiger]

The dave smith cokk strokers society out in force i see.

 

[bottle]

Don't give a rats arse about Smith, your whining just makes me laugh.

 

[Miller was a legend]

lol how did Jayson Bukuya escape

I'd say it has something to do with it not being a shoulder charge

What does Dave Smith have to do with such a stupid comment? :lol:

 

[Rod]

Matulino getting 3 weeks for what was basically nothing while Ah Mau got nothing for smashing Snowden in the face just highlights what a complete joke the judiciary system is. Completely ridiculous.

 

[thorson1987]

Surprised Glasby got off. Was expecting at the very least a grade 1.

 

[jc155776]

Will shillington cop a charge for each head it plus the punch?

 

[The European Polynesian]

This IS the dumbest thing the NRL have ever done.

 

[Apey]

I think there has been more shoulder charges this weekend than any other this year. :lol:

 

[nick87]

Shillington and BJ charged from the over night game.

So here's 3 cases from the last two weeks...

1. Blake Austin spear tackles a guy - is free to play the following week
2. David Shillington loses his f**king mind and headbutts a guy - is free to play the following week
3. BJ Leilua connects on a shoulder charge, shoulder to shoulder, doesnt sniff being a dangerous hit - he's sitting on the sidelines


Im all for eliminating the shoulder charge but i cant help but think the NRL have got the weighting wrong on this. No one could watch those three incidents and say Leilua deserves to be sitting out a week and the other 2 should be free to play.

Of course the weighting is completely f**ked.

I can't believe Shillington gets off:crazy::crazy::crazy:

The judiciary this week must be on something as they've completely lost the plot!

 

[nick87]

Just to be clear, as far as im concerned Shillington and Austin should have been facing 2 weeks each and BJ should be free to take an early plea and be able to play this weekend.

If Mason gets 2-3 weeks then Shillington should get 5-6 weeks. Let's be fair dinkum here!

 

[nick87]

TBH they could have given Shillington 10 weeks and i'd say "good"
He's a f**king idiot

 

[Lambretta]

The shoulder charge rules are utterly ridiculous

If they're going to ban the shoulder CHARGE then ban the CHARGE - all this tucking your arm or waving it around in the air as working out if someone charged someone is f**king pathetic

The word CHARGE means you are RUNNING at someone
Standing still, while someone runs into you is NOT a CHARGE it is "bracing for impact"

Matulino and Mason didn't commit shoulder charges - in fact Matulino didn't even lead with the shoulder - he chested him while standing still. So how someone running into your chest while you stand still is a shoulder charge, when neither a shoulder or a charge was involved beats me?

We need a new charge called the "failing to waggle your arms whilst we ignore all other factors" offence. Anyone found not to waggle their arms will get 10 weeks on the sideline as the waggling of arms reduces impact as the attackers can't run so fast whilst they're laughing at how stupid the defenders look.

It's true - you just read it on the internet.

Soooo Shillington free to play with early guilty plea

Sorry but Greenburg and Buettner have turned our great game into a laughing stock. Mason misses games for a rugby league collision with no whip lash

Shillington engages in a headbutt and is free to play. Games f**ked

 

[bluey]

I hate it when the NRL make these knee jerk decisions, makes them look like amateur hour

 

[lockyno1]

You know that Mason and for that matter the others would have got away with it if they tackled properly. Use your arms. Not that hard. Do it.

A headbutt has to make contact
Did he even manage that - looked like he was waving his stupid noggin around and getting f**king nowhere

I'd have suspended him for a week for being a gutless f**king pussy
