Radley

Not anymore. They changed the rule this year so you only get a free interchange for a sin bin or send off

Fair, I didn’t even know that. Makes you wonder what the value of putting someone on report is anymore then.

technically it's an illegal tackle but i'm not sure there's enough force in it to do any damage. it's the kind of tackle that normally goes unpenalised. if the rule makes some reference to force then it might be worth fighting it and risk $500 to save $1000

Does he have anything to worry about? I was at the game and didn't notice it and haven't seen a replay yet?

Gus said no because he hits his thigh first then slips down.

Replay... I dunno how he hits the thigh first unless it's his chest. Stupid tackle IMO as the guy was already wrapped up, guessing a fine only at worst though?

Following the Sydney Roosters Round 23 match against the Wests Tigers, Victor Radley has been cited by the NRL Match Review Committee (MRC).

Radley was charged with a Grade One Dangerous Contact offence from an incident in the 19th minute.

Should the Club enter an early guilty plea, Radley will receive a monetary fine of $1000.

If found guilty at the panel, Radley will receive a monetary fine of $1500.

The Club has until 12pm on Monday to enter their plea

The match charges have come out and Victor wasn't even sighted. The right result.

The NRL is so unprofessional. The charges originally came out on the NRL website and Victor wasn't included. And he was actually charged!

Wonder if he thought he got off then?

Dunno about that but on the roosters site it says we are accepting the fine and JWH will be paying it!

The Sydney Roosters have elected to enter an early guilty plea in relation to the Grade One Dangerous Contact charge on Victor Radley.

As a result, Radley will receive a monetary fine of $1000 and will be available for selection for the Roosters' Round 24 match against the Melbourne Storm on August 26.

Maybe Tamou was right ?

About 1000 bucks or so a pop.

I wonder if the price will change during the finals series...they'll blame 'inflation'...

Hopefully that was the last time that Ben Cummins refereed our games..... He is set to retire!!!

Is he worse than Suttonx2 Klein or Gee - I'm not sure it's like the reverse of picking your favourite child

He was fine the other night. The bunker put Rads on report not him.

Maybe Tamou was right ?

Oh he was correct any other day of the week. Choosing a time when his team goes down 72-6 due to their own incompetence was a matter of poor timing, however.

Ref shoulda yelled back something along the lines of 'lol look who's talking mate... nice captaining'.

IMO the crackdown on dissent with insulting the ref being an immediate grade 3 contrary conduct is understandable but a bit overkill. Like I get that you don't want people calling the refs shyte (particularly on camera) but I feel there's much worse stuff you can do within the sphere of 'contrary conduct'. If Tamou missed his last game then it's bollocks IMO.
