PRE-GAME [Round 25, 2021] Broncos vs Knights

[theshed]

I don't hate Herbie, but he's failed at centre, and we might as well try him at fullback to shut everyone up. If his inability to pass doesn't cut it in the spine, he can fight it out with Jamayne for a wing. Tass has been training with the squad for some time. He's the last dev player not to get a jersey, so he can go to centre with Niu, who's done nothing wrong. Oates can go to the bench because we're that short of forwards he can cover both. Croft gets a chance to say goodbye from the bench. Khunt because my indulgence.

Mudfrog and Coates can get fucked.

I would like to see Cobbo and Farnworth spend time at fullback this game just to see what happens though that is probably pretty disrespectful to Niu.

Both are able to contest the charges.

And I hope they do. Should both be downgraded, given what else we've seen this weekend alone.

 

[McHunt]

What happened to the Cronulla centre who actually made contact with the head ?

Jesse Ramien
G1 Dangerous Contact - head/neck 36' on H Farnworth
Base $1500 1 non-similar priors (+20%)
$1350 early plea $1800 guilty / no contest

"The Broncos are considering their position on both charges."

Absolute stitch up. High contact to the head from behind. No worries. Just a fine. Get shafted NRL

Its cute that you think it will make a difference.

Why not go for it. Show these corrupt pricks up.

 

[McHunt]

On a positive note: it appears Turpin and Robati have not been charged.

Go watch the Piakura tackle again. 2 weeks isn't a surprise.

I watched it about 15 times and I think it’s marginal. If it wasn’t such a great hit it wouldn’t even get another look at. His head was down readying himself for the tackle when the ball was passed. I think it’s excessive especially for a player on debut who obviously has 0 loading.

The Flegler hit on the other hand was pretty dumb and given his history is probably close to fair.

yeah, so the NRL can give them an extra week each. the verdict has already been written

Are you happy with what the NRL gave Latrell?

probably about right, before loading is considered (p.s. i'm not a fan of the loading system) but IMO the tackle started as an illegal act (shoulder charge) not a legit tackle like Flegler's that may have strayed a bit high, the first point of contact was shoulder which is legal to tackle.

I'll say it again, suspensions should only occur for violent actions. Fines are enough. There's no consistency at all.

Yeah I'm more talking about a comparison with Ramien tbh.

Ramien's more comparable with Flegler. It's a shocker. In the brief replay it looks like a king hit. He got off lightly. He should get two weeks for that, not a fine. What am I missing?

Don't think you're missing anything. Seems obvious to everyone but the officials responsible..
