Round 24 Discussion

Not watching 9, but can only imagine a whole bunch of "doesnt deserve to miss a final series for that..."

Can imagine it would be in the same vein as defending Radley's reckless charge down attempt... whilst ignoring the huge swinging arm that Latrell had to go with the shoulder to the head ie. intent
Play it at normal speed and it doesn't look bad
The game isn't played in slow motion
He made a wrapping motion
It's not his go
He can't disappear
The player fell into the tackle

Any cliches I've missed for the defence?
 
If it wasn't him, absolutely.

I know he isn't necessarily favoured when it comes to the judiciary, but the fact it's him and Souths leading into the finals is a big ratings drawcard.

Wouldn't be surprised to see him get 3-4 weeks.

Even if the MRC try to protect him, I can't see any way they can. He's forced their hand. It's either a reckless high tackle which is 4 weeks minimum or a careless high tackle. If it's careless, it has to be no less than a Grade 2 which means he's out for the season. He got 3-4 weeks for a lesser tackle on a Tigers player earlier in the season and then there's loading and carryover points.
 
james Bracey is my new favourite human. He just absolutley shut the whole panel up who were trying to defend Latrell.

"When you look at his wrap sheet, who does he have to blame?" Asks Bracey.

Whole panel stare blankly knowing they're defeated. Best thing I've seen in a long time.

the word "accident" seemed to get used a fair bit
 
Finally commentators are coming to their senses saying it should have been a send off.
 
Robinson spending 5 minutes talking about the refs, calling it a farce, criticising every ref that was involved today.

The NRL have to fine him, and really he has every right to blow up, so I'm keen for the fallout.
 
What was the high shot in the Broncos game he was talking about? Concussion protocols all week on one of his players?
