Tech thread - WHY is Collins' 'hip drop' considered a grade 3?

[ism22]

As per the title... why (or isn't) Collins' tackle a grade 3? Discuss in 10,000 words or less.

Because we won

[ConGa]

simple, other bloke got injured. Would be play on if the injury didn't happen

[Bondicigar]

He has big hips

He has big hips

And I cannot lie

Not sure he purposely sunk his weight down as looked like he was reaching for the far leg and it was accidental. He’s a big goof and falls all over the place like he’s drunk most games.

But I don’t know, I’ve got no idea anymore about judiciary, penalties, sin bins, send offs etc.

If Tom Eisenhuth plays next weekend, we'll all know the charge is bullshit like the 412 overacting.

Team lists are named on Tuesday and the judiciary's on Tuesday night, right?

Could be worth noting that he milked it for the free interchange. Love to see what Bellamy did after the game. Musta been filthy after cheating, getting helped out by Gee-Banger and still losing.

Still waiting for his $10k fine for boycotting the presser.

Grade 3 charge is Grade 5 BS. Yes, the idiot Collins put pressure on the drizzle player's ankle, but the idiot Collins was off his feet already. I'd fight the grading of the charge if I were the Roosters but at the same time Collins has spent so much time out of the side lately, I think he's a liability right now and would be better on the sidelines thinking about being better next year (perhaps he could do visualisations where he sees the Roosters jersey like a maroon one and play accordingly, minus the getting knocked out part).

Feigning injury seems to be rife throughout that club, from players all the way up to the coach.
I'm thankful and a little surprised that the Match Review Committee didn't charge any Rooster with Bellamy's ailment ?

He wasn't charged but I understand the NRL issued Robbo with a "comcerning act" letter warning him for winning and giving Bellamy a headache.

It would have been 2 weeks without his bad record, 2 weeks for that is about right....the Storm guy was completely defenceless and Collins landed on the back of his feet for no reason, it was idiotic.

[Roosterfarian]

If Collins used his brain for a freakin change he wouldn’t be in this position. Dumb footballer.

[NorfolkStreetKid]

Ridiculous charge and grading, Collins HIP didn't touch the guy. It was his stomach, and caused no injury but the storm rainbow trooper lay down like a cat. People bagging Collins here are fools.. he has been great for us, and it was his first game back from a concussion, he saved a try and played well.

Souffs will be doing the same next week.
