INJURED



LATEST JUDICIARY

 
The NRL are going to scapegoat us to stamp out the hip drop tackle (regardless of whether what Carrigan did is actually a hip drop. IMO It's not) but that isn't going to stop them. Smacking the Broncos with a crazy suspension isn't going to stir up much noise in NSW and lets face it, that's all that matters to them.


Daily Telegraph's David Riccio expects a 6-7 week suspension.

Brandy would be comfortable with 8 weeks.


I rest my case.
 
**** this game needs to purge the NSWRL propaganda.

I'll wait till the outcome but if he is getting beyond a grade 3 we are getting seriously shafted for what would of been next to nothing if not for the injury.

If injury loadings are 6 weeks on top this game is fucked beyond repair.
 
With what we know about concussion and the fact that future legal action may financially ruin the game, I would argue that NAS' (arguably intentional) forearm to the head and that high shot on Verrils deserve more time than an unintentional hip drop. Ofc Cleary's spear tackle was far worse as it put Brown's head and spine at risk; it'll be a joke if Pat gets more time on the sidelines.

Carrigan only got into an akward position because Hastings got bent over backwards. He deserves to be suspended (not for 6+ weeks lmao. 2-3 would be enough) because he ought to have gotten into a better position and not put Hastings at risk, but the same can be said for blokes who hit players high.
 
You know what is more reckless than this tackle where a player got his leg caught? Jumping knee first into the opposition halfbacks head. Accidental, sure. Dangerous? Absolutely. Illegal? Should be. A player shouldn't have to worry about a knee to the back of the head when they're standing there.
 
Do we know who is representing Carrigan? Are they using Nick Ghabar (who everyone seems to use)?
 
Old school , the jersey not tucked in was asking to get put on a merry go round .
Tucking in collars were the same....prone to being rag dolled Gordon Tallis style if not.
 

Well, the agenda has clearly been set. Forget consistency, the message needs to be sent.

Couldn't even get through that shit. What a bunch of wankers.

I'm deadset ropeable about this. The calls to "make an example out of him" - seriously, what the ****? An accidental tackle that IMO doesn't even meet the NRl's definition of a "hip drop" needs an example made? The injury should NOT come into consideration whatsoever, that's bullshit of the highest order. A couple of weeks I could cop, but these dickheads talking about two fucking months out of the game for that tackle and it wouldn't bother them - on what fucking planet do they live? Oh, I know, Planet Fucking NSWRL, but give me a break.

Can we please have another Super League, stat, but one that actually fucking finishes this joke of an administration this time??
