I can't even remember the incident.
Just watched it, probably is a shoulder charge the way they define it these days. Was a good hit really.
I presume Wilton takes that spot. Talakai might be back by the time his suspension is served.
Does Nikora get his spot back ? I think he probably does, he hasn't been that bad. And I think Talakai will be eased in off the bench anyway.
Really liking what I saw from Wilton on the weekend though.
Next time he should just tackle him and blatantly punch him in the head. You get less for that.
It really does depend on what team they play for. This is glaringly obvious now.
Got your tin foil hat on mate? It honestly has nothing to do with that. It's all about the grading and any past indiscretions.
Nikora has past form I think but not the others. Even Kafusi I think was a clean skin before his brain explosion.
I know it looks like there is favouritism but if anything the process is flawed and has been for ages.
Punching to the back of the head as a grade 1 strike is extremely generous. A banned move in boxing and MMA seems like it should be more than grade 1 to me.
Fairly clean skinned

Fair comments guys and I'm not saying those guys are angels but you just can't come out and say that some clubs are treated differently. Can you?
I can't prove it but you reckon if a Woods or Fifita punches some bloke in the back of the head they get a single week?
I think there is a reasonably high chance if the punch came from another club it would be a stricter grading.
JWH probably could have been charged three times in that game and is as dirty as they come and didn't get a charge, even Roosters fans were shocked by that.
Mate, if that is ever proved to be true then that is ****ed. I just can't see the MRC sitting in a room saying, "this bloke plays for such and such club, let's make it a lower grading."
Next thing we'll know is that aliens have been living in the white house for years and Paul McCartney really is dead.
