Bitin' Wighton Gets Only 3 Matches

Meanwhile JWH gets 7 weeks for a nothing incident (yeah loading, blah blah)

How's this for a sympathetic hearing - they all but put the blame on the guy he bit; I'm particularly impressed by point 3 - the "spur of the moment" defence. Never heard this one before, as if to say all other acts of foul play are premeditated and carefully planned, perhaps for weeks? Would have been handy if they applied the "no injury" principle to our players more often - must be an example of "the vibe". Needless to say, NRL are a joke as we already knew:

1. "as previously stated, player Gamble’s arm had been placed in a
   position in which it should not have been placed;
2. some pressure was applied to player Wighton as a result.
3. the actions of player Wighton, although intentional, were executed on the spur of the moment; and
4. no injury was inflicted to player Gamble."

Yep, the NRL is a joke.

It's a joke.
Firstly I dont think he really bit him , but that's just my view of it. I might be wrong.
But if the Judicary thinks he bit him then why only 3 weeks.
Biting has the be one of the lowest acts , so 6 weeks minimum , maybe 10 weeks if you bite someone , it's disgusting.
So my guess is they cant be sure he bit him , so it's only 3 weeks , it's like they dont thnk he bit him , but we better give him a few weeks just in case he did bite him.

I dont really care, I dont like Gamble or Wighton.
They would both fit in well at Soufs.

what??? Look at the video and his arm !!
