Better have a week off to be safe

I'll tell you what, though, I'm certainly looking forward to beating Melbourne twice next year.

Start that week after Wednesday though.

I feel like we've said this every year since 2007.

I've definitely got a feeling about next year.

Its a great news for Broncos fans, I'm not convinced its particularly noteworthy news for NSW fans. He'd have been selected, but he has been way worse for NSW than he was been for Brisbane, 3 out of his 4 games were pretty rubbish.

PS... Lodge gets binned and is suspended a week for his knuckle accidentally softly carressing the cheek of a Roosters player, yet tonight Olam intentionally picks Arthars up and puts him down on his head in a tackle that is far more dangerous than anything which has been binned in the last 3 weeks, and doesn't get binned and probably won't get suspended either? You honestly couldn't pick it.

They're not cracking down on broken necks yet

It looks like the NSWRL have released the judiciary charges from last night's game.

Not sure if they continue to review it, but if so it would look like Bull has not been charged for the crusher tackle.

I thought he'd be screwed, but I saw a replay of it and whichever storm player it was actually had his head off to the side... so it wasn't even a crusher.

I'm glad sanity prevails, but I was expecting NSWRL to chime in and suspend another one of our players right when we don't need it

Did we get a penalty for the trip?

 

[Cavalo]

I agree with this, the succubus took another victim.

In all seriousness I think Kelly was concussed after the kickoff, I haven't rewatched it yet but live he seemed to cop some elbows, I was sure Kafusi did the same tackle he was suspended for.

Kaufusi definitely drives his head into the ground and attacks the face with his elbow and forearm. If NRL are serious about concussions and foul play this has to be looked at. Sure it was a strong driving tackle but it ended with a likely concussion which was unnecessary and potentially far more damaging than some of the slaps in recent weeks.

Yeah I watched it again, there was at least two elbows coming down. One was from the third man who wedges his arm in between the other two storm players and just ***** the elbow with one intention, to cause harm. These are the things that should not be missed and are unacceptable.

Looking at Dragons last game, we should be able to roll through the middle with ease
Broncs by 12+

Is it wrong for me to want somebody to smash Bird ?

The Judiciary as far as I can see has been relaxed as well, thought for sure Murray would be out for a game atleast for the crusher he did but nothing.

Nothing is done with ease for this Broncos side.
