Just when I thought that Payne Haas fiasco was the worst thing the refs could do this week, they go and one-up themselves with this targeted rubbish.
I'd be contesting that because paying the 3k fine is admitting to fault when in fact there was absolutely nothing in it. Joke organisation. The money should go to charity.
More importantly, if I was the club I would be asking what the difference between Nat's tackle and De Belin's on Cheese near the end of the game
100%.
JDBs was a clear hip drop by the definition but gets off because Cheese got up and played on like a man unlike that sheila Nikora.
I'm gonna create voodoo dolls of all these goons who run the NRL - from Vlandys to Anusley and the refs - and I'm gonna pay a gypsy woman to put a curse on them.
I implore the club to challenge this. Otherwise we can do a fundraiser on the chookpen to raise 5k. 3k for the fine and 2k for my voodoo dolls and gypsy woman.
Radley cited with a grade 1 . Early guilty plea is $3000, or contest it and face a possible 2 game suspension .
pay the fine and let’s move on
Hard to know without having sat around reviewing multiple angles. They're now looking for a fingernail making contact above the neck as opposed to a shoulder though, which is a pretty major backflip from the NRL!
Does seem petty! The ref/Bunker have sin-binned him at a crucial part of the game for a 'shoulder to the head'. After reviewing it, the match review chimps have admitted the Bunker/Ref got it wrong (so the 10 in the bin that he's already served was without a factual basis) and then tried proving a lesser penalty.
I dunno! To me this is all unnecessary. Would lean towards just paying the $3000 and moving on, but if he did nothing then we should challenge.
Ken Arthurson is still alive. I'd rather have him at 93 running things than Andrew "Elon Musk's hype man" Abdo and King Pyrrhus of Epirus, the guy who loses everything to win.
100% challenge. Even if we get dudded again, it will bring more publicity into the farce that footy has become, plus it wouldn’t hurt Victor’s mental state to have a couple of weeks without a sin bin.
