What a load of crap

Moimoi cops seven-week ban
August 1, 2006

PARRAMATTA prop Fuifui Moimoi has pleaded guilty to a reckless high tackle charge, accepting a seven-week suspension from the NRL judiciary.


Moimoi was sent off night for his high 50th-minute tackle on Sea Eagles prop Brent Kite during the Eels' win over Manly at parramatta Stadium last Saturday .

Moimoi is unavailable until the second week of the NRL finals, should the Eels progress that far in the competition.

He faced the possibility of a 10-week ban if he fought the charge unsuccessfully.

New Zealand Warriors prop Ruben Wiki also entered an early guilty plea to a careless high tackle charge for a hit on Penrith counterpart Joel Clinton during the Panthers' 36-6 win at CUB Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Wiki will miss one match.

Sydney Roosters wing Amos Roberts meanwhile will front the NRL Judiciary tomorrow night after pleading not guilty to a grade-one dangerous throw charge.

Roberts' plea means he will be banned for two weeks if the judiciary finds him guilty.

Too light, but the whole was dug last week with the Morley debacle

Very true. I am tiring of the NRL's double standards.

I have a question.... fui fui got done for a grade three reckless high tackle - he has possibly put BK2 out for 6 weeks with severe concussion - what did he need to do to warrant a grade five??? Decapatation??

Great post and very good question. You have to wonder if you have to take an axe or chainsaw onto the field and use it to score a grade five???? :naughty: :naughty: :naughty:
