It will be very interesting to see what Peachey gets for this tackle on Adam Blair. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5liIcl9ffQ&feature=youtu.be . The fact that he wasn't put in the bin for mine means that the refs are taught to only sin bin players who cause a blatant professional foul or connect with a punch, they look past incidents like these because they aren't told to use common sense.
This tackle is a lot more dangerous than others because the whistle had blown so Blair was not embracing himself for impact, there was absolutely no one else in the tackle so it's all Peachey who lifted him up and drove him into the ground. And this excuse that he mightn't have heard the whistle is BS. Every player should know that if you knock it on and then regain possession then its automatically a scrum, it happens pretty much every game.
If the book is not thrown at Tyrone you know the system is corrupt.

This Peachey tackle is the worst I've seen in a while.
Peachy will get 5-6 weeks.
* They should give him 12 weeks if the NRL are serious about stamping this out.
No
2 weeks tops.
If Junior's was a grade 3 this at least is a grade 5. but seeing he doesn't play for parra 3 weeks max.
6 priors in 12 months - Bulldogs jersey - Early plea - 1 week.
Now that’s bullshit!
I don’t think the Panthers are a protected species; nor are they a targeted species, so we may see a suitable result with Peachey.
