Peachey Spear Tackle

[Baby Blues]

Did anybody see this tackle by Peachey on the weekend? What a grub move after the whistle was blown!

Not as bad as the Trip in the C v C game though. So only a report is required....

Why was he not sent off? If he gets off lightly I'll be so p***ed

refs don't have the balls to make that big a call

Totally agree, totally intentional.
But having Fittler commentating at the time done me. Oh he mustnt have heard the whistle. Shouldnt be allowed to be anywehre nea a Panthers game.

It doesn't even matter if he heard the whistle or not lol, extremely dumb and dangerous tackle.

With spear tackles like that he's qualified to be a Melbourne train ticket inspector.

If you don't get it. YouTube it.

Yeah, didnt really concern Fittler by the sounds of it. Nothing in it......

I don't think it was THAT bad. Seen far worse this year.

He landed on his shoulder, and if you take the whole incident in perspective (and at full speed), he'd just had the ball wrestled off him and was tackling and standing up at the same time.

He'll cop a Grade 1 Dangerous Throw I reckon (125 points) which he'll take an early guilty plead for, and get off with a week and 0 carryovers.

 

[Mr Invisible]

Charged with a Grade 2 Dangerous Throw.

2-3 week suspension.

Refs don't have balls full stop. What made it worse was that the whistle had gone and play stopped. I think someone on Nine said something about Peachey having a right to make the tackle because he could not be sure play had been halted.

So u get 2 weeks for dumping a player after the whistle with intention but u also get the same for telling the ref his "off ta f'in face". Seem logical.

Not that bad?? Ya fukn kidding aren't ya? That was a seriously ugly incident. He should be sitting down for 8 weeks. Nrl is a ****ing joke.

Yeah that was pretty bad. 6-8 weeks imo but the NRL is ****dd up
