    @Kiwiwomble said in Bledisloe 2:

    the more i think about it the more i kind of like the idea of he cant play until QT can again

    I get that outcome shouldn't cloud judgement on action but I do think that once found guilty the consequences should be taken into account

    agreed, and i think thats also where id differentiate between acts like this and someone that takes out someone in the air because they were watching that ball...negligent rather than deliberate

    I don't actually think that he deliberately tried to injure but was reckless. He had opportunity to not take the risk.
    Given that he had already smacked QT in the head/neck with a shoulder cleanout he went in for a second crack and did not look to be playing with a clear head.

    Recklessness does not excuse though. Like drink driving, you don't set out to have a crash but are culpable if one happens.

    What is missing (or is possibly in the 'levels' ) is the consequence of being reckless. Again, using the drink driving example, driving under the influence and causing injury to others is more serious a charge than just causing material damage.

    @Crucial no, i would say very very few people actually think...im going to injury this guy

    I have always just seen a difference between

    "im going to tackle this knee"

    and

    "im watching the ball....watching...watching...of shit where did you come from?"

        Nearly a week later? Can't think that Rennie will be pleased with not knowing if a player is available.

          Just because the game was brought forward doesn't mean the regular citing cycle is brought forward - the same as if someone was cited out of Argie-Boks.

            Still, bureaucracy not in tune with the game requirements. Maybe when RA proposed moving the game this was a known outcome and they took the risk.

              @Crucial If he had been found "not guilty" on Monday (citing dismissed), he would have been available. All this points at a "guilty" verdict from the foul play committee on Monday, with Swain/Rugby Australia opting to go to a full judicial hearing on Wednesday, hoping to get another outcome.

                I hope the silly fluffybunny gets 6-8 weeks. Yes he's got talent but fuck me like Wright has the brain of a pea.

                  I wonder which section he's been cited under.

                  I can only see three sections that could be used:

                  e69e76f2-4a02-4fee-9220-6e52f7f3cce3-image.png


                  There was no head contact, so no minimum mid-week range starting point.

                  A lot will depend on the degree of recklessness or intent the judiciary thinks was involved in Swines' actions.

                  As to possible reductions: he won't get the full 50% reduction because of his red card for head butting. So if the starting point is 6 weeks, he'd probably get 4. Of course, it also depends on whether he admits to what he's been cited for. Is he fighting that, or just the sanction? If he doesn't admit he's done anything wrong, that also means less deduction.

                  I genuinely hope the starting point is at least 10 weeks, so he'd get at least 6 weeks suspension, but that would mean they have to start at a top-end entry point. Will they?

                  Edited to add that there's no reason why he can't be charged under more than one provision.

                  Judiciary is on Wed. Apparently last night was the Foul Play Committee which referred the matter to the Judiciary rather than dismissing it.

                  From "The Roar" - The Judicial Committee for the Hearing will be Andre Oosthuizen SC (Chair), De Wet Barry and José Luis Rolandi and it will be held via video conference on Wednesday at 5:00pm (AEST).

                      You run the gauntlet with this stuff in any event when there are back to back games in consecutive weekends.

                            You reckon? I think there is a pretty general consensus around here that SB has surprised to the upside this season, and is locked (sorry) in to a position in the 23. I'd go further and say that I reckon 95% of posters would have him as the 3rd lock, and many would even have him in the top 2 at the moment as BBBR works his way back. Go further again, and I'd guess that there is even a significant cohort that would pick SB at 6 if the SB/BBBR duo are fit and starting.

                            Aside from Sami who is clearly #1 (sorry Jase, we know you agree), what's the competition for #2? Ardie for the lovers out there, then daylight to SW I guess?

I'd go further and say that I reckon 95% of posters would have him as the 3rd lock, and many would even have him in the top 2 at the moment as BBBR works his way back. Go further again, and I'd guess that there is even a significant cohort that would pick SB at 6 if the SB/BBBR duo are fit and starting.

                              Aside from Sami who is clearly #1 (sorry Jase, we know you agree), what's the competition for #2? Ardie for the lovers out there, then daylight to SW I guess?

                              Yup, maybe we don't see him as the best,as a fern collective, but he's top 3!

                                You reckon? I think there is a pretty general consensus around here that SB has surprised to the upside this season, and is locked (sorry) in to a position in the 23. I'd go further and say that I reckon 95% of posters would have him as the 3rd lock, and many would even have him in the top 2 at the moment as BBBR works his way back. Go further again, and I'd guess that there is even a significant cohort that would pick SB at 6 if the SB/BBBR duo are fit and starting.

                                  I dont want to get into any debates over which position he should play 🙂 but has a fucken big motor , no doubting that .

                                  I kind of get them wanting him out there for 80 mins .

                                      as a 6. Most on here would have him in top 2 locks now I suspect.
                                      I thought I heard Brodie say before the match that SB called the lineout strategy and probably would even from 6 and given the lineouts have improved over the year (?) it makes sense that Jason Ryan rates him highly (at least as lock)...but yes on listening to Ryan he highly rates him at 6 too. I'm also surprised a little, didn't notice him that much during the game..maybe he was doing all the dirty work...

                                        @Crucial no, i would say very very few people actually think...im going to injury this guy

                                        I have always just seen a difference between

                                        "im going to tackle this knee"

                                        and

                                        "im watching the ball....watching...watching...of shit where did you come from?"

                                          @Bones and i see that as different to someone that sees a knee and still decides to tackle said knee....not without any responsibility...but different to the later for me
