Is that convincing enough? 7 games left according to that.
Beat Cas away that one's easy, then we owe the Giants one and they're a one man team and he's injured. Next up Warrington who'll be knackered by their Challenge Cup match the week before - beat them. Hull KR at home - tricky fixture as they've started picking up points but shut down Dobson and they're rubbish so beat them. Then Wigan away a week before Challenge Cup final. IF they've got that far we'll beat them as they'll be distracted if they've not got that far it could be two points dropped as has been proved before the full back cheats and gets protection from the refs. That then leaves Crusaders and Wakefield. Those last two fixtures are a bit like feeding the Christians to the lions. Four easy points there.
That's what will happen by and large and you will eat your words.'"
I love optimism
In fact that post was so optimistic it appeared to break this entire site for the best part of 24 hours  |

Can't believe that Ferriol will only get up to three matches for the worst high shot i've seen in a while. Watched it again on SL highlights and its an absolutely terrible tackle.

Just wondering. Shall we go straight on to the "who should we choose when we get the pick in the semi" posts, or would it be best to start a new thread?? |

I thought the red was harsh. Watching in slow motion really does make it look 10x worse though. |

Surely you could see the intent in his eyes though, even from the other side of the pitch/country/world?
It was clear that he meant to knock him out wasn't it? |

He had no choice but to try and knock the ball out? Red card for that accidental tackle is just stupid.
Correct decision would be on report. I don't automatically assume that if someone is knocked out it has been done maliciciously and therefore a red card is needed. Players get knocked out in tackles a lot. |

He came in with a swinging arm, way to high to knock a ball out and was a lazy tackle that could have easily hurt Donaldson. He deserves the 3 games for recklessness. |

a 3 match ban. For an accidental tackle. What a joke.
When you see all those deliberate head shots get let off game in game out. Crazy. |

| <fx: Sound of Spitfire, towing a long banner behind it over the suburb of Ilkley which reads: >
" =#FF0000Head coach Trent Robinson speaking on behalf of the player states that he pleads guilty and is of the opinion that this is unacceptable tackle."
</fx>
But what do they know, eh?
Quote ="RFL Disciplinary""The committee take a view that whilst this tackle was not an intentional act but was certainly reckless. The committee give you credit for your plea of guilt that this was a total unacceptable act. The technique used by the player was obviously poor and had the potential for serious injury, although thankfully there was none. The committee note that your record is not a good one and you have other incidents of this type of offence on your record. Therefore the committee think that the appropriate sanction is one of 3 matches and a £300 fine."'" |

| None of my postings above are my words, every one is a direct paste from the Raynor/Tomkins thread from the usual suspects. A quote from me at the time was:
Quote ="tigertot"If it had been a front on tackle & Raynor, or whoever, had swung to hit across the chest, missed completely & knocked the attacker spark out, would 2 games be too much? He could equally claim he was trying to dislodge the ball.'"
As it happens, guys & gals, Ferriol's high tackle was pretty much text book stuff. Straight red, no messing, no complaints, no doubts. 3 games maximum. |
