Matai Tackle Footage

[eagle-rock08]

The one Smith has just done was more along Matais line

notice they said virtually nothing about that shot whereas with matai they kept on about it.
what a bunch of ar$ewipes

I listened to the 2GB broadcast. If Hadley mentioned it once he mentioned it 50 times. It was almost a trial by media.

Brohman and Roach took up the lead as well.

Now there are two guys that NEVER did anything wrong while they were playing.

I pose this - given Minachello and Marshall's incidents and the subsequent let offs, and if Matai gets charged is there any consistency int he NRL judiciary?

Matai was slapped with a Grade 2 careless high tackle by the match review committee for his challenge on Bulldogs winger Sam Perrett in the 19th minute of the Sea Eagles’ 16-10 loss at ANZ Stadium on Friday night.

The Manly centre will miss one week if he takes the early plea, but could risk a two-match ban if he fights the charge at the NRL judiciary on Wednesday night and loses.

Jeremy Smith not even mentioned.

I actually think Matai might get off. The swinging arm was deflected of Peretts arm. King is the one who is in trouble. He got him flush.

I'm of the belief that they won't suspend them both and that kings is worse. He may miss another GF if we make it.

Funnily enough I reckon your judgement of the 2 offenses was spot on. Review committee went for the opposite assessment!
