The MRC, TV ratings and the fair dinkum scale.

Let’s see if they suspend Mitchell for his cheap shot elbow to the head.

I reckon it’s a grade 1 striking charge so his season is over but who knows with Channel 9 pulling the strings.

[barryd]

Yeah he should be gone but they will find an excuse.
Atkins on the field said he was going to send him off but that was quickly changed to a bin

[Jacks Fur Coat]

I think I'd rather he played, been a dead weight for them lately.

[mightyrooster]

There’s no way they will let him miss the final game.

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Latrine should miss a week but won't. Same with Cody Wanker for the hair pull on Dom Young and Milne for the knee drop. The MRC will find a way to let them.off with a slap on the wrist. Any other club and all 3 would miss a game, but as you say it doesn't suit the pro souffs narrative that the NRL.and the media push.

[mattyh]

I reckon he is gone for 3

[King Salvo]

Be only a grade 1 so a fine only

[Rooster_6]

Not sure if anyone caught Shane Flangans commentary.

"I think it was a send off"

Quite literally 10 seconds later after Voss mentioned mentioned Souths had the bye before the Roosters.

"There wasn't much in it though"

Gotta protect those ratings..

Grade 1 high tackle is for careless play.. that was deliberate and falls into the reckless category for which there is no grade 1 option.

They are either going to give him a reckless charge which is 4 weeks (3 week early guilty plea) or they're going to rule there wasnt enough force and therefore no charge.

I can't see them ruling grade 1 careless though. Maybe they charge him with dangerous contact?

He has history of similar offences

Yeah Atkins on the field said it was an elbow and I’m sending him off

[B2B]

Latrell is way off form , maybe he missing the roosters

[milanja]

Would be nice to beat them with him there, I didn’t see it, but how many on here believe it is worthy of missing game time?

I’ll have a look for a replay.

Agree, BUT if that was Rads, JWH or Brown they’d be suspended for 3 games.

[Kentucky_Fried_Rooster]

Grade 1 with a fine only with the Red & Green working in his favour
If he was wearing RWB would be a minimum a month on the sidelines

I hope he isn't suspended for the last round, I feel we have more chance of a win with him playing, he hasn't done anything since he returned and Souths have gotten worse since he has.
