Just a feeling, but I reckon they'll throw the book at him, the VR said it was deliberate.

You can see on the picture the back studs hit just above the sock. The other studs likely catch below the knee and end up on the thigh. The blood thing isn't an issue either, flesh wounds don't always bleed quickly, especially not when it's about 3 degrees. It's not a conspiracy this, it definitely happened.

Your certainly busy spreading the news on other forums like an old woman, how’s Konrad doing for you by the way.

He's got 3 matches, AND referred to the tribunal. Could be two separate charges.

2 month ban being rumoured.

Farce

Unfortunately I think you maybe right but I would seriously question how a VR can say it was deliberate? I think its fair to say that Gale is one of those players that doesn't go out with any intent or to deliberately injure a player. I would say it was most definitely careless and not sure I even go as far to say it was even reckless. Is you watch a lot of charge downs when a player tries to close down quickly many have a leading leg to help when they push themselves off they don't jump like a salmon. It wasn't a two footed kung fu effort and was nothing more than a genuine effort to charge the ball down that he got wrong though as its one of the clubs from Hull you can bet it will be given maximum penalty.

I hope that they also review the performance of Kendall & Moore in regards to two incidents that the on field ref didn't call but was told in his ear resulting in a yellow and red cards of which the yellow was a joke as Welsby played the officials and purposefully lifted his own standing leg which resulted in him going down. When you watch the incident back he plays he's hurt holding his neck but then suddenly jumps back up as though nothing has happened. Did Wynn lift one leg? Yes but did he lift it above horizontal and waist height? No.

If that's true then the game of RL is just a joke and no longer the sport it was. I agree in player welfare but you can't officiate a physical sport with mambie pambie officials as we may as well just ask players to wear ribbons on their shorts and outlaw tackling altogether.

Hes been charged with a grade c and d.

What's he gunna get 8/10 weeks

Grade C, 3 matches for lifting the player off the ground. Grade D, "Behaves in any way contrary to the true spirit of the game (includes Dangerous Contact) - Other contrary behaviour", tribunal. staging.rugby-league.com/uploads ... y%2021.pdf

Laughable

The grade C is listed as 3 matches and the grade D is decided by tribunal. Its going to be 7+, I wouldn't be shocked if its something absurd like 10 in total.

8 matches at a guess
