Suspend Tonie Carroll

[Dutchy]

I would have gone for 'fingered'

Hoppa Fingered:sarcasm:

 

[Shorty]

Why don't players usually go on with it and make a complaint on the field? I know people say all that tough guy crap and the "what happens on the field stays on the field" line, but if that's the case, don't mention it in the first place


Carroll deserves a solid suspension, it looked intentional

I really think Sione just didn't want to make a big deal out of it,he's trying to start fresh and probably doesn't want to have any dramas.
Besides the fact that Tonie is usually a good guy and it was probably just a bit of frustration.
I think he should get a week or two but that's it.

I thought it looked much worse in slower motion (as everything does).
It's worth a look though.

An eye for an eye...Carroll will get what he deserves.;-)

It wouldn't surprise me if Sione got sighted as well. It appeared to me that he gave Carroll a rake across the face on the way up. It was no where near as bad as what Carroll did, but with Sione's record, I wouldn't be surprised to see him up against it (hope I'm wrong).

two weeks for stupidity, but it wasn't a gauge, it was a face rake that cannot be tolerated.

What the hell are you smoking?
The only thing Sione did was push Carroll's head with his forearm which he got Carroll a penalty for.

We'll see.

 

[Game_Breaker]

He's guilty. You can't defend that ^

 

[Mr Saab]

Is that where his eyes are?
He would have to have the smallest forehead in history if that was the case. Smaller than Mario Fenech and Debra Messing

 

[gregstar]

the bent fingers don't help.

it is a still however - you'd need to see a string of images.

 

[Game_Breaker]

You said his fingers wont curled.

Obviously, his fingers were curled, at some point they wouldve met his eyes

 

[miccle]

I didn't want to comment until now, because I only saw it at the game.

I'm surprised... it definitely looks like an intentional movement, but I still don't think Carroll is that sort of player.

Regardless of what he was trying to do, it happened and it happened more than once. A suspension is called for, as much as it pains me to say it.

Yes, true.


I just posted that to show that his fingers were in fact curled up

 

[Mr Saab]

They were not curled in his eyes like they were with Cross on Morrison.

Look i know it is not good, not good at all, but is is not the worst incident in the world

 

[Shorty]

No it isn't,but you can see Carroll looking straight at him while he's doing it...

 

[gregstar]

his eyes look shut to me

 

[Mr Saab]

Are you an optometrist?

 

[Shorty]

Well done,here's a cookie:roll:

 

[Frederick]

The worst thing about this incident is he actually has a go with both hands. So the hand that's holding the ball, he actually removed from the ball to get his fingers up around Sione's eyes.

 

[Mr Saab]

Yeah choc chip.
Eyes are open :roll:
It is really amazing what people "see" when they look at a pic. I see zero evidence of any eyeball. All i see is eyelashes.
