Lawton and Send off rule

[Ryan]

I can’t wait till Elon Musk takes over Twitter and in his own words "gets rid of the woke leftist administration".

*Im only new to Twitter, but I knew they were harsh on what you can say. I’m currently on a 6 day ban (second one). Fair enough the first one. I called Germaine Greer, an old dirty dyke. But my current one I called someone a ‘moron’.
I’d love to see @mickqld get on there and give one of his almighty sprays!…I think he’d blow up the Twitter algorithm for naughty words.

Oh man, that made me crack up. You legend !

Didnt you get the memo mate? Manly havent got any ruck infringement set restarts for the last two weeks. All of a sudden our opponents are saints!
Our player gets sent off for something that has been, at worst, a sin bin for the last 20 years.
Souths player doesnt even get penalised for an eye gouge shown on camera about 50 times during the game. (ironic given the last player who i can remember getting in trouble for an eye gouge played for the same club, 10 weeks suspension and the officials got condemned for not sending him off lol)
Bunker was clearly trying to find a way to overturn an obvious penalty try.
Then to top it off at the end they rule a pass forward that was clearly backwards that cost Garrick a try.
Laughing in that way with the Rabbitohs captain is triggering, but it could be for any number of things said that dont relate to the game. I think we are all just pissed off that we dont seem to be getting a fair rub of the green from the officials at present.

We absolutely don't ! It's ridiculous to be honest. I'm in the don't blame the refs club, but jeez it's hard.

While you’re happily typing away your bon mots on twitter, Alex McKinnon is sitting there struggling to get his fingers to the keypad on his phone.

I’m a Tele journalist.

LMAO @wombatgc that's why I'm not on twitter. More power to Elon.

Germaine is straight btw @wombatgc - I would have fancied my chances there if I were her generation. She looked so cool in the early 70s.

I think sadly for the Lawman that it was indeed a tackle gone wrong, the first part of the tackle was fine but then due to momentum up and over goes Murray.

Maybe he should have pulled out and just dropped him !!!

Maybe he couldn’t!!!

Now has to spend the next month thinking about it .

Atkins couldn't put his finger up quickly enough, that bastard has hated us ever since AFB accused him of cheating against the Knights

That finger by Atkins without a word and almost smiling incensed me. Other than AFB, he wouldn't have done that to a player from any other club. Total arrogance 😡

Well certainly not for Penriff, purplescum, rorters, souffs or scumatta. The favoured few can do no wrong.

The article needs an edit. The “I prayed for him” line is quoted four times.

The McKinnon knife and fork, pen and shower chair references are insulting and pathetic.

The reference to broken noses, jaws and cheekbones as being somehow no big deal is weird, and a fallacy. If any of those resulted from the tupou tackle it would have been worse than what Lawton did.

I’m not belittling what Lawton did, and agree with the sendoff and 4 weeks. The article however is an insult to our intelligence and should not have been published in this form.

you mongrel!
you made me re-read my post thinking i had put the same bit in over & over

South Sydney captain Cameron Murray harbours no ill-will towards Manly forward Karl Lawton.
Murray understands how perilous the situation was and how fortunate he was to avoid injury, but he can’t help but feel a level of sympathy for Lawton.
From a players’ perspective, he says he understands things can go awry. That’s exactly what happened at Central Coast Stadium last Friday night, when Murray miraculously avoided being tipped on his head by Lawton in a tackle that went dangerously wrong.
Lawton was suspended for four matches after entering an early guilty plea to a dangerous throw on Monday morning. He sent Murray an apology via social media immediately after the game and Murray revealed he responded in kind, letting Lawton know there was no drama between them.

“He apologised, which was nice,” Murray said.

“He didn’t get an opportunity after the game to come up to me and say sorry. I reassured him that accidents happen and he didn’t do it on purpose.

“I just said I understand accidents happen, I appreciate the message and I hope he gets back on the footy field soon.

“There is no hard feelings at all. Accidents happen. I understand how that type of tackle or similar tackle is not tolerated.

“I understand that, but I also more side with a players’ perspective and I try to empathise with what he is feeling, and I know he didn’t mean it.”
