Slaters shoulder charge, gooone.

[chopstiks]

He will definitely be charged. But the judiciary committee will fall for the "i couldn't get my head outta the way" line and based on Mal's common sense approach he will be found not guilty

This.
Billy already pleaded his defence last night on Ch9 when Joey "i'm tipping Souths to win" Johns asked him about it. No malice, accident, he wrong footed me so i turned away. As Gus would say WOW

Then a Storm official urged his wife and kid onto the live interview to change the subject.

He's a grub with a win at all costs get in the grand final at all costs approach who we'll be forced to worship all week or at least watch others ride him hard.

Bloke ran a straight line at full speed shoulder cocked. Feki was goneski with the same shoulder farked after another "accidental collision" later on finished him right off.

[RoosterRooster]

they would not dare suspend slater for the final and end his career. how would he claim the clive churchill

They'll still give it to him based on his game the previous week.

No person is bigger than the game....

NRL = Not Really Legit

I guess I will get flamed here but I'd be pissed off if one of our players was outed for that. The rule was brought in to stop 2 guys running full pelt directly at each other and the tackler hitting with the shoulder. That's when it causes harm.

Did Slater commit a shoulder charge? Absolutely. Should he miss a game according to the way the rule is written? Yep.

I'd just be filthy if Tedesco was gonna miss a GF for that.rubbish

That depends on who the Storm play. If it's the Roosters, then the sponsor of Souths' trainers, Garlo's Pies, will definitely exonerate him.

Havent witnessed much of the later for a long time in NRL

Perhaps Freddy should be sent over to that suburb to do door to door selling, in response

I'm pissed off that Latrell ain't playing tonight because dem da rules!

Watch next year, I bet all carryover points now go to Zero at the start of the Finals series.

[Frozen Chook]

Clearly made no attempt to make a legitimate tackle

knew he was going too arrive late to take him low over the sideline.

clearly led with the left shoulder with no intention of a ball and all tackle.

either the game is governed by rules or we join the other rugby code in its slide into mismanagement with both being over taken by soccer and AFL.

League through the NRL and its make it up as they go continues to erode the traditional supporter base

are they really surprised when they can't fill Allianz stadium for a semi between Penrith and Cronulla

[Mickie Lane]

The Daily Telegraph has just said he will be charged.
200 points & will miss the GF.
Thats a shame.

[roosterchook]

This is another case that is being decided by the media. The NRL and judiciary have no integrity whatsoever if they let him go while 2 of our players are suspended from the preliminary final only decided by the media.

[Mickie Lane]

All you conspirators are wrong.

[fletch]

Thats a shame.

he will challenge it at the judiciary.
