[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 1021282, member: 72977"] Pleading guilty knowing it will reduce your sentence has never sat well with me. How many people (both in rugby and other legal areas) know if they act sorry, regardless of if they are, that they will get a reduced sentence. Very similar to how appealing in sport nearly always seems to end up with a reduction at the very least. In this case Fagerson gets an extra week for saying he didn't think it was worth a red card. What gets me though is that the say POM has a good record when he was red carded in October. I can't find exact numbers but he has at least 2 reds and 3 yellows, with all but 1 of those yellows coming in the last year (I reckon if the high tackle laws were in place earlier in his career there would be more). Fagerson as far as I can tell only had 1 yellow before this. There definitely seems to be some inconsistency here. [/QUOTE]
