Masila deliberately put the shoulder in no attempt at a proper tackle if it gets Matty’s chest or the ball it’s ok but if it gets his head whether mistimed or unintentional it’s a red card and subsequent ban.

You’d be screaming blue murder if say Kenny Edwards had done that to Chris Hill.

As a 60 something RL fan I get what BMM was doing my gripe would be with Austin and his ‘chicken-’ trip and fake head injury, back in the 70’s he would have got his come uppance on the blind side of the referee as most players in those days would have been fair with BMM’s tackle but hated that type of cheating.

I’m sure as I know the Huddersfield player who would have done it any Wire fan of the 70’s would be able to name the Warrington enforcer...

Makinson has had his (what should have been a) 8 game ban, reduced to 5.
No wonder the RFL are seen as [inot fit for purpose[/i

When he returns, after not playing for a while, will he get pulled off at half time?

Oooohhhh Matron!!!

I, as well as everybody else, knew he would not get 8 matches. Absolute joke of a Disciplinary Committee

Grade F offences shouldn't get the benefit of 'A good disciplinary record'. Absolutely disgusting what Makinson did.

I imagine he'll get a fair amount of sledging.

Have to be a bit careful sledging wingers, it seemed to inspire a certain Mr J Monaghan!
