Tyrone Peachey has been charged with a Grade 2 dangerous throw charge for this tackle:
This means he will miss 2 weeks with an early guilty plea.
Remember, in Round 1, Junior Paulo was rubbed out for 9 weeks for a comparatively innocuous tackle.
Rugby League is losing credibility by the second!

They're kidding themselves.
Oh, and Konrad Hurrell gets 3 weeks for kneeing Anthony Tupou, breaking his jaw!
I'd just like to point out that whilst the Paulo grading was a little unfair, he was the first dangerous throw charge of the season and there was nothing to measure it against and they usually like to make an example early on. So everything is now being measured against Junior's suspension.
You may want to review your logic in that post, SSE.
The evidence just keeps mounting. If you get a chance to re-watch this game note that the main referee refereed Parramatta for almost the entire match and the pocket referee did Melbourne. Therefore Melbourne never offside. Also note that after Melbourne where penalised for jamming head with head and forearm then switched tactic to second effort in tackle turning the players over( banned this year) but never penalised. Obvious that Parramatta is refereed differently to other teams. While penalty count at 9 to 6 may seem ok remember Parramatta received one 30 seconds before halftime and about a minute before fulltime, useless to the team. Of the 9 penalties 2 where ok the rest where inconsistent or plain wrong.
