NEWS Judiciary: Live blog - Carrigan Four Week Suspension

[GCBRONCO]

Brandy would be filthy. He would have been comfortable with 8 apparently

Thats 8 years right?

 

[I bleed Maroon]

4 weeks

Wow, hurray for our lawyer.

Was 360 still live when the verdict came down? lol

 

[BroncsFan]

Four is doable but still too much for what the tackle actually was, which is a Grade 2 and 2 weeks

The lawyer did dick. He got the same as McGuire, less the bad boy loading. Expected result given his clean record.

Did he have the option of a guilty plea? He should’ve taken it.

When they say that I think they're actually wrong, because Hastings still had momentum in the tackle and was still moving forward when Pat joined the tackle... he has every right to join the tackle and take the legs to halt momentum because that's what happens in 99% of tackles... **** they had a NSWRL babyface in JAC mic'd up and he spent 5mins screaming "legs"

He has the right to join the tackle.

The problem is, he makes a very very poor decision on the type of tackle. He only has himself to blame.

NRL asked for 4-6 weeks. They got what they want.

Bear in mind the NRL sent a letter to all the clubs telling them they would be targeting this exact tackle, because it’s crept into training.

I can’t complain about this verdict.

He did plead guilty, you have no option but to face the judiciary when it is referred straight to them.

I'm not arguing the type of tackle I'm arguing against the below

 

[lynx000]

where did you see that?

I was following Eloise Sohier on twitter who was one of the reporters outside.

So there is no reduction for an “early plea?”

They probably factored it in to come up with the four. I thought three weeks would have been a fair result.

 

[Sproj]

I’m happy with that and would be happy if all those types of tackles were 4 weeks.

I’m ticked off though South’s guy didn’t get Jack for exactly the same tackle and just about the same outcome.

He’ll get it next time

Patty is now an NRL bad boy

 

[pennywisealfie]

Hopefully he comes back fresh and pissed off and dominates the finals. Let's go Patty.

 

[Kimlo]

Let's see. I doubt it.

Hopefully Patty comes back but Kobe has been absolutely killing it and playing 80mins at lock... Patty into the prop rotation starting with Haas and Flegs back to the bench with Jensen.
