Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3505681, member: 9853"] Tripping is an abomination. Used to be an instant send off and multiple weeks out. Now it's classed as Dangerous Contact, dealt with first by the on field officials in accordance with their first impression (at least a sin bin), handed to the Match Review Committee for a formal grading, and then passed through to the Judiciary for a ruling. Each level of the process involves fresh eyes, and further deliberation often with new evidence. Herbie's trip was judged as a Grade 1. He had no priors. A fine was the expected outcome. Here are the key elements of each grading: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.nrl.com/operations/judiciary-and-match-review/what-are-the-key-elements-and-indicators-of-each-offense/[/URL] Phil Gould was one of many who complained about the downgrading of tripping years ago: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/tripping-must-be-stamped-out-of-the-nrl-20160419-goa59x.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
