What have other players copped for the same thing, if any?

Seems pretty serious..

Radio commentary I was listening to said between 8 and 12. If it happened to a no-name player that wouldn't scrutinise it as much as they have now (even though biting is a disgraceful act). The fact that it happened to Slater won't really help him.

Worth noting Slaters got Graham in a headlock around the neck it seems.
No actually, it really isnt worth noting.

Graham is done and is the joel monaghan of our side now.

Couldnt care less about 'heat of the moment'. Just disgusted.

Do you guys think maybe he wants out? Think of a few things.
1) he can't wait to go and see his family
2) he mentioned in his media interview "I could have gotten up to leave if I wanted to" sounds bad in some way. Means he has thought about it.
3) Greenburg wanted to extend his contract for a further 2 years.

I think he will cop 4 maybe 6 games max... They won't suspend him for to long as his new to nrl.. Still no excuse to bite someone's ear but already copping it for next year and it hasn't even begun :(

You are kidding right? Release him and see how many clubs would line up to sign him. Bestiality vs Love Bite. I see the similarity..... Not.

Otherwise agree that it was a despicable act, and makes our sorrows worse.

Daniel Moroko (Sharks Toyota Cup player) amazingly got one game for biting this year.

There's no chance of a penalty that lenient, though. It'll be a few weeks for sure.

initial reaction is 3 months, but honestly it could be around 4 weeks. i think hes a bit lucky in that the footage of it isnt as bad as it could have been.

Highly disappointing in Graham, I seen it as it was happening, but wasn't too sure if my eyes were deceiving me, unfortunately it was confirmed when I heard Archer say there was a biting allegation.

There is a small mark (dot of blood) on the inside of Slaters ear (clearly visible in the after match interview), I can't say it was caused by a bite, but it's quite a coincidence.

Not looking good for Graham. Worst part is we'll now be remembered as the biting dogs.

thats one way of bringing the bite back into the dogs ...
unfortunately for our English mate graham will be looking at some time on the sideline next year..

Gaaaaahhh *shakes head* ... it'll be very interesting to see if he just admits it, or if there is another explanation for it.
