I don't care what they charged him with, it was a text book shoulder charge.

Anyways, it doesn't matter if he was falling, it has been a penalty for 10 years.

This is what I was responding to...

Last week was a shoulder charge so the circumstances are irrelevant.

Which was in response to a post about the three instances of late where Teddy has dropped and it's led to being on report, it wasn't charged with being a shoulder charge, so it's completely relevant, what's irrelevant is your lack of care over what the actual charge was.

So yeah it does matter that he was falling, because that's a big part of why there's contact to the head.

No contact to the head and that isn't even penalised, let alone put on report. I becomes another nothing incident.

f**k off freddy , saying the burr one was borderline and saying he went in aggressive .
Hope qld fall into every tackle and you lose SOO 3-0

Freddy fired up deluxe earlier in the week too about Tedesco getting hit in the Parramatta game

Clearly talking with Origin on the front of his mind

The latte lovers are out in force, defending the indefensible which is Tedesco lowering his body in tackles giving the defender no chance. The Politis, Robbo, Fittler triumvirate protecting the Roosters is in full force.

Pity is PVL and Annesley have fallen for it and over reacted .

For what ever its worth
I think the MRC got it spot on with the raiders players charges

I would think the club will take the plea on all of them. There is really no defence we could mount. Just have to cop it on the chin

What the f**k is this Nick? Accepting responsibility (albeit on behalf of your club) and not blindly defending stupidity?

This is LU, you know.

so you are saying Tedesco is risking injury and concussion every match, by purposely slipping or falling, just to give the roosters a leg up, and totally disregard his future health, what a clubman he must be.

I can answer for him , as per that link from above , he is aware that the studs he wears makes him slip . So yeah he is purposely putting his Health at risk as he knows he slips at tackles,

I don't think Teddy goes out purposely looking for penalties, but his running style is a big problem. There has to be some accountability on his part for falling into tackles at the last second.

Greg Inglis used to plant his legs a bit while fighting for a quick play the ball. Not his fault he was strong but it resulted in a few spear tackles on him. He ended changing his style a bit. So should Tedesco.
