See ya Slater

[Surely]

Off topic I know, but check out the knockers on this chick

Comparing Evans hit to Slaters to highlight double standards lol

I heard on the news he got off because he convinced the panel it was chest first.

Hahahaha

f**k off

I’d have more respect for the merkins if they just came out and said that his last game is better for ratings...or some shit.

 

[lazza]

Cam's right.

Yes he’s right - but maybe he just wants it applied from next season (yes I know it was back in 2015 he said it)

Please go and read the live blog, its actually disgusting the amount of BS they said, really, go and read it.

The best thing about this GF is that only only one of the sides can win.

No...the worst thing about this GF is one side has to win! Much better if it was a cricket Test and neither side could conceivably win.

Still, I hope it's the Roosters. Only so it's not Melbourne. And any poster who wears purple can call me salty, but I am looking forward to the end of the grub/holier than thou era. The sooner Billy f**ks off to ride horses and Cam goes full time on his refereeing career, the better.

A great result IMO. These kind of tackles happen at the back all the time and no one gets outraged about it but because it's Billy the NSW hatred comes out . Waqa Blake did it 2 weeks ago and was not even charged

It's great I get to watch the best fullback I have ever seen play 1 more game. Hopefully Cooper gets up for it as well

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Cam's right.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-08-...on-nrl-to-keep-shoulder-charge-banned/6672202

Cam went on to say he's completely against influencing the referees, chicken wing tackles, salary cap rorting, leg twisting, sliding into tackles and high balls with, and other atrocities.

Oh lord don't let there be another fap fest over these cheating purple pricks on Sunday. If there was any justice in the world they'd only have the two stripped premierships to pretend they actually won fairly.

I've never even set foot in NSW, nor do I support them. Far too convenient to say it's only 'da haterz' who think the NRL are a bunch of spineless merkins and Billy should be suspended.

Waqa Blake wasn't suspended because there was no on-field action taken against it, he wasn't penalised or put on report, and probably it was just forgotten about by fulltime.

It'd be great to see the best fullback play one more game if he didn't actually commit an offense that is against the rules of the NRL, which he did. Oh no wait, he didn't - because they bent those rules. And they'll bend them back until another poster child of the comp does the same.

Fairytales are easy to achieve in footy when someone at HQ orchestrates them for you.

Let me guess. You believe the Earth is flat, The US blew up the Twin Towers and Australia does not really exist.

It’s a great outcome for the game. Well done nrl judiciary. Now change the points loading so you dont get put in this ridiculous situation again. Spear tackles are far more dangerous yet don’t carry an automatic ban as we saw this week with Friend.

What relevance does the points loading have to this situation?

It wasn't a shoulder charge.

 

[MilkShark]

Wikipedia says his real name is William, wow.

Free Willy.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

It’s good for the GF that he’s playing and that’s fine. But the NRL have truly F’d themselves in the A with this. That was a shoulder charge any day of the week and anything resembling that tackle will have to be let go from now on.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Haha. If that's the quality of your discussion, I'll talk to the other people. So far you've managed to conjure up that anyone who doesn't like the decision is a hater, thinks the earth is flat, 9/11 was an inside job and believes Australia is a figment of everyone's imagination. Not the sort of quality I'm after in a debate.

There were plenty not even charged this season.

Waqa Blake did it 2 weeks ago and was not even charged

The Blake one was round 17, close to 3 months ago. Not hard to see why it wasn't charged, and no-one said a word until this Slater tackle came up. There really is a need to clarify the shoulder charge over the off-season. Neither tackle was deserving of even a penalty. Blake appears to have made contact near the hip.

To be honest the JWH tackle that broke RCG's jaw looked more like a shoulder charge than either of these, but it wasn't charged either.

 

[myrrh ken]

It takes a special kind of merkin to argue he was protecting the person he was tackling by employing a technique that maximises force in a collision.

 

[MilkShark]

That doesn't matter.

This is a high profile case with alot of public exposure, this is the time the nrl needed to stand strong.

But they didn't, and now any shoulder charge that comes up will have to be let off.
