Taking the emotion out of it and looking at it the next day.. it doesn't seem like as big a deal to me. If he said it was an accident and he didn't mean to kick his face, you should probably take him at his word.

Should get a week or 2 maybe for lashing out with the boot or whatever the going rate is for that offence. Anything more is overkill

I'm comfortable with the charge (loading has counted against him anyway)

I'm not quite sure what Parker's trying to achieve by fobbing off the apology then mouthing off to the media about it in every post-game interview. If Kasiano has come up and apologised, what happened to "what stays on the field"?

Or does that only apply to Corey if he's the culprit?

He dropped a nice elbow on Teddys face in origin as well. f**k him, if that's how you play the game that's what you get, give Kasiano a pat on the back as far as im concerned.
He hung a similar shot on Peter Wallace a couple of weeks ago too, lost the ball doing it. Wal had words and I suspect they were along the lines of "suck shit".

Parker is a serial offender who continually gets away with it. If the game won't sanction his behaviour, it is left to other players.

Since when has "what happens on the field" meant shit?
He got kicked in the face 5 minutes before full time. It's pretty understandable to still be:

a) A little pissed off at the guy who kicked him, and
b) Dubious about Sam's "I didn't see you there" apology.

If he said it was an accident and he didn't mean to kick his face, you should probably take him at his word.
Also, a direct quote from Parker.

“I’ve got to take his word for it. He said he was sorry and he didn’t mean it but my head was where it was and it got what it got.”

Well Tedesco got a broken jaw & Parker got a bloody lip - no comparison! Also, Parker knew Broncos were going to tryline - held on too long Parker. I'm not even Dogs supporter.

Parker has form for this.
Whinged for weeks after origin.

Yeah I thought he got one of us a couple weeks ago just couldn't remember who, he is a confirmed cheap shot merchant.

Sam is a necessary evil, he can't play more than half a game but without him the Dogs are f**ked and RL needs as many teams in contention as possible . . . allowances although not desirable have to be made in this shittiest of all NRLyears
Get back in the shallow end of your dribble pool scoop.

It was a bad look for the game, I think big Sam should feel lucky his only looking at 2 weeks.

Fronting the MRC after they have been in the headlines for making a joke of a call with the Tedesco tackle is all bad timing for big Sam. He will get the maximum the charge carries because the MCR has always been a reactionary panel. Their decision making is all over the place

Matty johns just had the audio. Gotta say I thought Parker was ok and kasiano looks worse. Kasiano apologies and Parker ignores him. Kasiano then says 'why don't you go have a cry then' Parker turns around and says 'I got kicked in the face!'

I think Parker has every right to be upset over it, if he thinks it's Intentional that's his right to have that opinion.

What I (and others on here) have an issue with is that Parker is one of the biggest cheap shot merchants in the game yet obviously can't cop it when it comes back to him.
