Crocker Merrin Latimore Wighton all let off. We've had 4 concussions and not only no suspensions bug these 3 acts have only yielded 1 penalty. Great system.

Well I must say that despite the constant ineptitude of the refs , judiciary etc I am still surprised at that.
Did i just imagine that crocker cocked his elbow toward moltzens head whilst running at full pelt.
I count this as worse than the Trex "throw' and he got 7 weeks.

 

[cunno]

Wow souffs had a lot of luck yesterday

 

[happy_tiger]

Un fn believeable What has Rusty orgnized tickets to his next big movie premiere for the judiciary

Whether it was careless or not he has a record as long Engelbert Humperdick and would have had carry overs plus loading

Even Gould said after the replay "they might only have 12 after this "

Nothing in it… Some of you blokes have black & gold goggles on whenever one of our players gets hit. He had every right to brace as he was diving & Moltzen was falling.

It was purely accidental and that's why he got the lesser of the charge for the contact!

tiger watto you need glasses arm was cocked and it hit him in the head , he is a grub of a player , and i would always give our players the bennifit of not laying their uninjured

I've never seen anyone brace themselves with a cocked elbow, from a collision with a fullback who's just about lieing on the ground. He had ample opportunity to pull out of it.
Farah gets 2 weeks and the blokes who've dished out concussions to our playmakers get nothing. Some consistency would be nice.

:laughing: so does the Match Review Committee then… Strange it is only Tiger Fans thinking it deserved anything more than a grade 1?! :crazy

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

I was baying for blood at the ground, but I've watched the game since and if Farah only got two weeks for a spear tackle, and Latimore et. al got nothing for their contact it's probably reasonable that he gets off with a guilty plea.

 

[smoking_gun]

Cocked elbow no attempt to tackle deserved 1-2 weeks IMO if he goes in for a conventional tackle it's all avoided

 

[Citizen_Tiger]

The administration Of Rugby League is fraught with problems, the inability to confront acts such as Crockers and deal with them accordingly, is but one. Grade one? lol

 

[Tigerdave]

That's a joke, even with Moltzen falling into it, he cocked his elbow.

 

[LaT]

If Moltzen doesn't fall Crocker makes contact to his mid section.

Grade 1 was on the lighter side, but still acceptable. I wouldn't have been surprised if he got a grade 2 though.

Dog act. His hit on Brett Stewart in the gf some years ago I have no problem with, went in with his shoulder and was an awesome hit. Regardless if moltzen was falling or not, he still went in leading with his forearm.

jeez, and the NRL say they want to stamp out attacks to the head

 

[barra]

Arm outstretched = trying to tackle legitimately, arm in a leading with forearm = reckless. Results in head contact should be Grade 2.

If Moltzen doesn't fall **Crocker makes contact to his mid section**.

**With his elbow**. Strange tackling technique.
Moltzen copped another bad one later as well.
Funny how all the guys who continuously come on this forum telling everyone he's got no heart have fallen silent this week.
Not even blaming him for us losing like every other week. :laughing:
