Thoughts on the Jackson lifting tackle

[no1bulldog]

Soward was still sooking after the game in his interview...the guy is a parasite and would have been chewed up and spat out back in the day....but todays politically correct, limp wristed rules play right in to his panties

Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs back rower Josh Jackson (Grade 2 – Dangerous Throw) and lock forward Greg Eastwood (Grade 1 – Dangerous Throw) have today been charged with a that occurred during the 24-12 win over the Panthers on Saturday night.
Jackson and Eastwood were involved in a tackle in the 21[SUP]st[/SUP] minute of play on Panthers five-eighth Jamie Soward.
Jackson’s charge carries 325 points (plus 20% for prior non-similar offence (totals390 points)) but if he accepts the early guilty plea, the Mudgee junior will miss two matches (292 points). A State of Origin match will not count towards his suspension.
Eastwood will escape suspension with a Grade 1 carrying a total 125 points (93 for early guilty plea)
Jackson & Eastwood have until 12 noon tomorrow (Tuesday) to enter their plea.

Grade 2 dangerous tackle - 3 weeks

 

[Sword]

Surely we can fight this and make it a grade 1. Its obvious he was just pushing until others interfered

 

[Nano]

Good outcome to be honest, so does this mean Jackson won't miss an Origin game but still be suspended?

 

[Nano]

Also will Panthers cop a fine for Soward being "knocked out" and "lying dead" on the floor but not taken off for a concussion test?

 

[Haddaway]

Just take the early plea and miss one game for us.

 

[Haddaway]

Early plea for Eastwood he wont miss a game, if Jacko takes an early plea he just misses Melbourne game plus SOO.

 

[finchie]

Eastwood won't miss a week with an early guilty plea
jacskon will miss 2 games for early guilty and 3 games if he fights and loses at the judiciary
origin cannot count as a game so knowing our club hel miss storm game, origin and the bloody Brisbane blockbuster ffs

 

[finchie]

Early plea for Eastwood he wont miss a game, if Jacko takes an early plea he just misses Melbourne game plus SOO.

Hel miss two for us otara
origin not counted
melbourne and Bridbane games

 

[ek999]

He misses two games for us if he pleads guilty. Origin doesn't count

 

[blueyedsamurai]

He misses two games for us if he pleads guilty. Origin doesn't count

So he cant play origin regardless?

 

[Haddaway]

Bugger!! That doesn't seem fair.

 

[Interestingg]

So he cant play origin regardless?

Correct. The most annoying thing is that he also misses the Broncos game. Really wanted to have our full team to expose this bunch

 

[ouwet]

They have to fight the grading! That's BS!

Why was Eastwood charged? For touching his upper body?

Has the NRL sent Penrith a please explain for Soward not going for a concussion test? He acted like he was dead.

 

[dogbone]

The bye weekend has stuffed him! I guess if he signs for another club before June 30 he could still play origin? hahaha

 

[dogbone]

Actually he should fight it and try for a down-grade. Worst case, he fights it and loses, he misses 1 more match which is against Parra.

 

[Harby]

Why doesn't Origin count?

 

[c-b-b]

We'll have to fight it. Not for origin but he's needed for the Brisbane game. Des tried his best in the press conference and said it deserved a grade 1 but match review were always going to screw him.
