Can someone explain how these carry forwards have been arrived at. I get the conversion of offence severity into points that accumulate during the season. But I don’t follow the application of this to 2024 offences. If a player offended last year surely they’ll have served a ban then and those offences extinguished. Or is it that all offences last season, even though they served a ban for them, are carried forward to this year.
Last year's gradings of offence are reduced by one level so for example Lisone's Grade D becomes Grade C hence he starts on 5 points.
We can argue about the fairness of it all (double jeopardy / new NRL imports being exempt) but clearly the intent is that they want to start 2025 as if the system had always been in place. I guess the "it's the same for everyone" attitude has been applied.
As luck would have it we have done OK by having 3 new overseas players plus Holroyd and Gannon coming back from long lay offs.
