Rumoured and Confirmed Signings - XXV

Will Jnr get suspended by the NRL if found guilty of road rage / assult ?

Good question, he plays for us so it wouldn't surprise me. He got 9 weeks last year for something that was worth 3 at the most so he'll probably get 20 years.

One would think so. If guilty it is pretty poor form, and not the sort of thing the NRL should ignore. Just my opinion, obviously.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Typical Barry. Can't handle anyone having a different opinion.

That's f**kin right, Merkin. Actually no, that's wrong

 

[hineyrulz]

I'm sick of that Barry Merkin using his circular logic, we need more objective posters like Pou.

If found guilty - he should go to jail the aggressive and violent merkin.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

If it wasn't a Parra player I would probably agree.

Yeh, well he would have got 4-5, except for carry over points, having committed a near identical offence about 6 games earlier (in 2014) and challenging and losing.

Hopefully his non-footy record is clean.

No way was his a grade 3 compared with some of other charges throughout the year.

You may well be right, particularly with respect to charges / non-charges later in the year (case in point Hodges). His big problem was that he picked up Ballin after the tackle was completed, all momentum had stopped and there were no other defenders involved in the lift. All of the potential mitigating factors were unavailable.

 

[84 Baby]

Only thing holding us back is another speedy 3/4 and quality winger.

I thought you were going to say a new board

 

[strider]

If it wasn't a Parra player I would probably agree.

Hell we'd probably even agree if it was just a shit parra player

 

[Bigfella]

I'd be seeking the death penalty be reinstated if it was one I can think of!

 

[Obscene Assassin]

I should of been been more clearer, sorry. I think our backline last year was the slowest in the league. With the exception of Semi. Although I think Taka / Hoppa are both skilful..... both of them
Are plodders when it comes to speed. We need quicker skillfull 3/4 IMO. If def give Semi A shot at 3/4 next year and maybe bring up a quick junior or gutherson to play outside him on the wing. As for the 3/4 position is don't know, it depends what happens with hoppa's court case which he will probably win.

Even with the slowest backline in the competition we were able to have the highest try scorer in the comp. It doesn't matter about speed as long as they can get it to someone in a better position. And that's what Taka's job is to do, make space for Semi and he did that this year without being 100% fit in any games. Even if Hoppa is here this year I doubt that he'd play centre in attack, the right side centre I think will go to Gutherson who has plenty of speed.

I doubt that Hoppa will win his court case. Guess it all depends on your agenda for which way you think the case will turn out.

Or whether you are prepared to predict the outcome of a legal case despite not having read the pleadings, the evidence, heard or seen the submissions, and have no legal training.

Then it's very easy to do I guess.

If only he did it on the field, he'd get 2 weeks on the sideline and nothing after that.

 

[Bigfella]

Not sure why they waste time and money on judges when they could just ask blokes on rugby league forums which way the case should go.

 

[Bigfella]

I reckon you'd get more than two weeks for driving onto the ground to be honest.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

You'd definitely get an obstruction penalty.
