Manly wins a game. Due to play roosters next week....

Politis and greenberg talk, toddy picks up the phone and as Marty is a no brainer to charge....decision is made to find another prop.

Lawrence is doing well....he's the one hit with a charge no one can see/find footage of.

Any other team would fight the charge and argue "it's ennis" as a defence and get off.

toddy and co will get their way though.

Esp with buettner on the panel (disgruntled norths nob)

They should "clean the slate" for anyone who hangs one on Ennis. This guy should be given a chit to destroy himself!

 

[Chip and Chase]

I'm watching the replay and there is nothing around 24 mins - we had the ball and running up the field

23:22 there is the usual Ennis dive, no footage on Fox of the actual incident as Ennis is on his own writhing in birth pains - no penalty given, no stoppage of play

Well there must be some footage of it otherwise how do the MRC cite him ??

The Bunker has 36 camera angles that the Broadcasters choose feeds from.

The BJ incident was not deemed important to broadcast, so we see the lead up to the scrum and the writhing body of Ennis on his ownsome

This is why the subjectivity of the MRC is a concern.

Just like all the Ref touches last week were not noticed by anyone else, the camera angle was not what Nein/Foxtel broadcast.

I think that this just adds to the 'consistency' argument.
If the Refs miss it, should it be left on the field?
We can never pick up every transgression without the game losing its character

Do the Clubs have access to all camera angles to use in the legal defense?

It's the new CEO memo that went out. Must be a minimum of 2 Manly players charged each week.
Signed Todd the knob Greenturd

 

[niccipops]

Pretty happy that Marty only got a week. I was expecting at least 3 due to Manly loading.
Lawrence, wtf???
Setting up things in favour of the stupid chooks.
What's with the quick turnaround too? Four nights recovery time!
Fair dinkum we're royally screwed by this draw.

Very good point. They absolutely should have this if there is to be any equity in the process.

 

[MadMarcus]

The BJ charge puzzles me as much as anyone, but I don't think the conspiracy theories have much legs given Marty only got a week...

*Waits for the "That's what they want us to think" response...*

 

[wombatgc]

On the positive, if you had to lose your two in form forwards for one game....this'd be the one. Pretty handy replacements. Leary had a cracker in nsw cup apparently.

 

[HoldenV8]

From what I have read it appears that BJ has been charged with kneeing Ennis in the groin.

Are they serious?

you mean vagina!

 

[MadMarcus]

The NRl has released a still Image to justify the charge

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Yep, the term "c*nt punt" applies to hitting Ennis in at least two ways.

That now makes sense then, so it's due to the application of the concussion rule.

Ergo, the MRC considers Ennis a dick head

You didn't need to explain it, it was brilliant without it

 

[HappilyManly]

So what's the DT headline if BJ contests the charge and loses ?
'BJ forces Ennis into the Brookvale ****hole''

Attack on groin from BJ, gets off

"Ennis comes good after BJ hits him hard in the groin, BJ deemed good by the judiciary"

 

[HappilyManly]

What's the bet that he gouged BJ in the scrum

Would have been a quick BJ
