Minogue has taken the early plea and will miss the next two games. Croker will also miss the next two and therefore Origin One. Cameron Smith and Michael Luck are contesting their charges.
Did Kylie have any carry over points? It's dissapointing, I thought that Timmins' hit on Hunt was alot worse.
The difference between Kylie & Timmins was that although both attackers were falling in the tackle, when Timmins hit hunt his arm was around his stomach/chest whislt Kylies arm was bascially parralell with his shoulder. Hard to defend that IMO.
Minogue had carryover points from last year and received some weighting for prior offences. He carrys a further 16 points over to the next offence, presuming there is one. Up the top that should be Craig Smith of the Knights, not Cameron Smith.
Minogue had 57 carry over points and was charged witha grade 2 careless high tackle so misses 2 games
