POST GAME Round 1 - Cowboys vs Broncos

i disagree with that statement ...

in an ideal world they should and probably would fight every charge that isn't a slam dunk ... but this is the NRL and in no way an ideal world.

in the world of the NRL where incompetence and bias reign supreme, fighting can sometimes be the wrong move.

in making this decision, they would have looked at our piss poor record at the judiciary, they would have looked at TPJ's rap sheet, they would have looked at how TPJ has been treated in the past by both the MRC and judiciary ...

the club would have weighed all this up and come to the same conclusion many of us have, that TPJ has a slim chance at the judiciary, so decided no to risk an additional 2 weeks on his inevitable suspension
Take the judiciary to court then, dispute their decision. I just hate how obviously inconsistent it is and we do nothing about it and just roll over on every charge.

Maybe they accepted it on purpose to just teach TPJ a lesson too. Anyway I guess there's bigger issues right now and that may actually be why the club didn't fight it. They're probably all panicking behind closed doors about the covid no crowds crisis so fighting a suspension that they have almost no chance of over turning is very low on the priority list.

Agree with this. They seemed content to enforce Haas suspension this time last year that now appears to have bought dividends. TPJ's lay-off towards the end of last season didn't seem to make a difference but perhaps this will and he will now follow Haas's success.

Maybe the club is content with the suspension to force his next contract price down. If he’s not on the field regularly, he’s gonna have to take a pay cut.
He's signed until end of 2022, so hopefully he learns his lesson before then or it's going to be a long 3 years.
