challenging the review committee

[stsae]

Obviously the point I was making was lost on some! I didn't expect Politis to storm into the judiciary, I meant he would finance the legal representation.

Why mate???

He connected with the Burgiis head.

He has carry over points and form for the same offence.

He didnt lift his arm as the new rule states.

No point in whinging. Cop it. Man up.

Review committe judiciary committe Turd Greenberg I have no confidence in whatsoever.The recent rule changes are not for the betterment of the game nor for the players - it's for the TV broadcasting and all about selling a product. A hard sell when you have imbeciles like Ray Warren calling the game.!The players deserve more whilst corporates like Greenberg are inflated salaries.

So the players want knee injuries from those cannonball style tackles???

Or shall we let the lawyers destroy the game with concussion litigation that's already hammering the NFL???

You do realise the players, officials and coaches among other vested interests voted on these rule changes??? Unlike the last 15 years when NewsRL made their own agenda.

Really if the players don't want to earn the extra cabbage the TV deal brings in they can always not play.

I don't agree with every rule changed but your rant is just utter shit mate.

Sorry Rooster_6 but the Teo shot was worse than you think.

I have no real problem with SBW getting a few weeks for his shot.

Teo is completely different. Whether people consider that a shoulder charge or not is irrelevant and that is because SBW did not have the ball.

Last time I checked hitting a guy without the ball is a penalty - no ifs, and or buts!

There are too many shots off the ball that don't get penalised.

At least once a game you will hear Sterlo say 'tackled on suspicion' like its an excuse not to penalise. I don't think he even understands what that means. For mine, if you are tackled without the ball you deserve a penalty.

Not saying that changes the game but we'll never know.

The thing that I don't like about it is that the man without the ball 99% of the time is not bracing for the impact and that's far worse than the former..

At least SKD will never be put on report for a shoulder charge.

Nice av mate..

So you basically agree with me, Te's hit was a cheap shot and should've been a penalty but it wasn't a shoulder charge?

Thanks kindly

Mate maybe my language wasn't the best, it's that time of the month.

Seriously look at your comment about the game just being about selling it to TV and being a product.

Well it is all that.

We are in a very competitive situation with gAyFL and Yawnion and even Sokka to a small degree.

The TV money is where the $$$ are.

Isn't it the suits job to make sure we make more $$$???

That would include changing rules that make the game safer for the players, banning cannonball and shoulder charges, so people watching see less risks of injuries???

If the suits didnt act and a class action eventuates, especially with the example in the NFL in the USA, then there is the real risk of the game being damaged beyond repair.

Then people would be blaming the suits for not being proactive.

Which way would you rather have it???
