That's how we got our points back after the Parker on the field ****up years ago.
Guerra has admitted jumping to milk a penalty. How can he NOT get off?
However, Nick Ghabar, acting for Manly said there was no rule against lifting a players' legs in the NRL and Trbojevic was only guilty of making a "very good tackle"."The tackle was a fair one that you see from every kick-chase in the NRL," Ghabar said.
"It was legitimate, it disturbed player Nightingale's balance and had he not turned in the tackle he would have landed on his back.
"He was also managed in the tackle in a careful position by player Trbojevic."
The panel took less than three minutes to throw the case out.
JUSTIN Hodges WILL get off his dangerous tackle charge and get to play in Sunday’s grand final for the Broncos.
That’s the mail I’m getting from a senior NRL official very close to the case that will dominate headlines for the next 48 hours.
You can never be certain of anything when you roll the dice at the judiciary - but my inside man says Hodges’ chances are very good.
“He had to be charged but the tackle was ‘borderline’ and that works in his favour,” the insider says.
“It wasn’t malicious or deliberately dangerous and I think the panel will look on it favourably and let him off.”
With so much at stake and the game shaping as the finale to Hodges’ glittering career, the Broncos will fight the charge at the judiciary on Tuesday night.
Most believe Hodges deserves to end his career on a good note - missing the grand final because of one slightly mis-timed tackle would be a bitter pill to swallow for the veteran centre.
he will get off.
