$1350.
I'm not sure how it's graded.
Both Ogden and Asofa-Solomona faced the same charge but were fined $1150 and $1600 respectively

It's graded the same as points but in dollars, so 25% early guilty plea, 50% loading for similar previous offences(and I think 25% loading for unrelated offences in last 7 years), etc. Which explains the slightly different amounts.

Not familiar with the other two charges but the panthers one is a joke,probably been said elsewhere but back in the day you did that you risk getting one put on your chin and/or a square up later on.

That's my thought as well, but I was really surprised with the difference between Ogden and Crichton.
I guess Crichton must have caught a charge sometime in the last year.

It would be nice if the NRL kept judiciary records public like they do with contracts now.

they'll never do that ... it would expose their inconsistencies, incompetence and bias

Is NRL an acronym for Not Rugby League? because I'm sure they are currently killing if not, have already killed the sport that I have grown up loving. It not the fact the Broncos are not a top team anymore but every game I watch is "managed" to fit the narrative of the NRL. It's not even subtle but as my friend says "****.... if these ***** are not cheating thier eyes are painted on."
Apologies for the rambling...

The darlings this year are the Panthers and Rabbitohs. Rabbitohs were allowed a couple of Titanesque sneaky "just go away quitely and forget your contract" deals, James Roberts' being one. I can't remember the other, unless I'm thinking about Sam Burgess and his "injury retirement", which not only coincided with his off-field dramas becoming public, but him actually wanting to play on elsewhere, with the claim "oh, I can still play, just not at NRL level..."
Anyways, watching Rusty, Thor, and their entourages carry on the other night, it makes perfect sense that Mr Rugba Leeg would want to pump as much air in to the tyres of the club that gets the NRL genuine Hollywood exposure.
And this is coming from someone that wants Bennett to do well.

Yep, and Titans are their golden ticket north of the border.
Its disgusting on a propaganda, brainwashing level.

I don't mind this at all. Build an us vs them mentality, have the players enjoy what they are doing even if everyone else hates them. There are different ways to go about it, Melbourne had theirs and now the Penrith zoomers have their own.

I’m actually so glad they’ve taken it to the next level, they’re only putting a bigger target on themselves and I sincerely hope that when a team beats them they all go around and individually handshakes and nod to each one of their team mates.
