2022 MRC and Judiciary Changes

[Big Pete]

How many years is it to be counted as second or third?

It's a rolling 12-month period.

So if you commit an offence during the Grand Final that will remain on your record until the next Grand Final.

That's not very good for mine.

How long would you have it set for?

I was worried they were going to wipe the slate clean before every season.

So it will protect idiots like Radley... I mean surely not even he is stupid enough to commit the same thing 3 times in a year.

....

Although he did get binned twice in a game for high shots

Do you mean if they are at 3rd offence, each 12 months it reverts back to nil offences or do they drop off each 12 months.

So the grading of the tackle on Mitchell that left Joey Manu playing sipping his food through a straw would only get 2 weeks under this new arrangement

Players like Latrell Mitchell, Victor Radley, TPJ and the other thug from the Dogs team (can't remember his name), they'll be all celebrating deep into the night

don't worry, the first time Flegler goes a tad high they'll TEMPORARILY change the rules back to last years judiciary penalties

Jack Hetherington is the nutcase you were thinking of.

Sorry for the delay, I missed this.

It's the latter with each offence given it's own individual rolling window.

Collins escapes again with no sanction this time for his canonball tackle. What a joke.

Only a fine for old mate from the storm diving at Leilua's legs last night as well... NSWRL are allowing the cannonball tackle to come back into the game

Just shows all that player safety rubbish last year was nothing more than Vlandys speaking before thinking and rules popping out.

 

[Jedhead]

The only way to get the cannonball tackle stomped out again is to have a Broncos player commit the act. Then it will be harshly dealt with.

 

[Morkel]

This would have been the perfect moment for the Broncos to put their foot down and tell the NRL that they won't be pushovers.

Anyone know what happens if they fight but lose one of the Grade 1 charges that's only a fine? And do those same Grade 1 charges go on the record so that they can be used for loading on future similar charges? If they do count towards future loading but don't carry an actual suspension of fought and lost, all the more reason they should be fought and cleared from the record.

On the two week suspension, the Broncos legal team should have dragged out all the footage of similar tackles, in particular those by the darling clubs. They normally just try to show examples of previous similar tackles that have been given a certain grading, but what they need to do is pull out all of the ones that have been cleared by the refs and judiciary and say "how come this is a charge but these were okay"? There would be at least a couple a week of the exact same tackle, but because no one was injured it is ignored.

Looking at NRL.com it looks like every team has just gone the early guilty please with everything. Fucking pathetic, especially by the Broncos who are continually done over and just take it.

The judiciary is a lottery, can understand why no one goes against it consistently except the Roosters who almost always win.

The suspension for Flegs' fourth incident was legit bad, he probably should have received a longer suspension to be honest, so should Tevaga. Players who do these types of tackles should be out as long as the injured player +1. The other three though is just the NRL trying to save face because they were absolute disgraces of decisions, they should be challenged even though it wouldn't be successful simply because it will show how ludicrous the charges are.

They can only use actual charges for an argument, you can't use tackles that are worse but weren't charged. I know, it's stupid.

So for a grade 2, they can say look this is the same and was a grade 1 as an argument.

But for a grade 1, they'd have to find a similar example of a tackle that was charged as such then successfully appealed, so as you can imagine there isn't much precedent given teams rarely appeal.

If this is true, I hate the NRL even more now.

You are surprised an NRL process / system is convoluted and able to be manipulated?
