Quote ="RoverAndOut"This was from the RFL site (for Blair): Early Guilty Plea offered and accepted. 1 match suspension.

Shame about him not being available though as he had been excellent in this little mini-run we have been ">on.'" Allgood nfa.

Chase & his mate Hauraki (4 matches) can have nice holiday together now. Pair of thugs

Quote ="phil webbo"Quite agree MR, it's like magistrates court, a good friend of mine is on the bench and because people are given stricter sentences if they plead not guilty, they generally all plead guilty, he said he has sat there on the bench thinking the weight of evidence was in the defendants favour yet they're too afraid to chance it and risk a higher penalty, so I assume the rational would be the same with Red ">Hall.'" I should've added in my original explanation that you're perfectly entitled to challenge the charge and not just use your EGP, Phil. having talked to 1 or 2 of the players and a former coaching staff member about the madness of the EGP farce in the past they all said the same, with a match commissioner at every match and every game reviewed on the Monday at Red Hall the feeling is that if you've been picked out for a charge you might as well take the EGP whether you're guilty or not as the panel then look at the same evidence and pretty much everyone is then found guilty ignoring what you or even the injured party says in your mitigation! I guess the Mitch Allgood case bucked the trend thankfully

Gutted to lose Blair, didn't think he would be anywhere near this good when I first saw him jog out purely based on his mud gut. He's injured anyway I suppose. Surprised Allgood got off, even with rervers specs on I thought it was a crusher tackle when compared with other ones that have been cited.
