Acton has been charged with a Grade C offence of "other contrary behaviour"

Any idea what that's about?

shouldered Flanagan in back off the ball

Why don't they just make us play in blindfolds and be done with it. We seem to get slaughtered every time and I for one am getting sick of it.

His own worst enemy is Acton, could be really good too but may end up down the road if he can't change.

Really rated Acton but starting to think he is more a liability than anything else.

I agree. So much potential but the brain farts keep letting him and the team down

So it isn't Acton's fault it is, the fault lies with those who notice his persistent offending?

He is a liability.

He will never change after the Swinton game you would have thought he would have changed

It dont look good on TV but neither did Soward running 20m to tackle from behind

Agreed. Soward should have been charged for his actions last week.Just shows the inconsistency.

After saying that, Acton defenatley needs his brain re-wiring.

Different strokes for different folks, Mo. But I do agree that Acton is asking for it, plenty of 'previous' as they say in all the cop & robber shows. Round up all the usuals. Acton is Acton enemy number one, his poster is on every Post Official wall.

He could very well end his own career, especially with the extra camera scrutiny in SL should....?

Hopefully Jukes will now realise he is a liability and get rid. Will cost us more games than he will win.

The grading of the offences are very inconsistent.

Me too. Acton is a great player.

Lui's tackle on Greg McNally is a lot worse than worthington's last week, and here is the description of the incident.

DETAILS OF CHARGE / REASON FOR NF :

Player makes tackle on opponent who has re-gathered kicked ball. Player making legitimate attempt to tackle opponent using wrapping motion towards opponent who is in crouched position. Penalty sufficient.

DECISION:

No charge

INCIDENT:

High Tackle in the 33rd minute (McNally)

The detail of the charge and the incident, totally contradicts one another.

The disciplinary panel are nothing short of incompetent buffoons.

I agree Frank,but he is spending more time off the field than on it.

At this part of the season now, it's imperative we have as many players available as possible.

Bored with reading about Jamie's antics.

Oddly enough, Kurt Gidley was cited for something similar, but there is to be no further action. Oh, and when did Wakefield sign him? www.rugby-league.com/the_rfl/disciplinary

Re wind the video to around 27 mins and Acton flattens Flanagon off the ball from behind. We are very very lucky that the officials are following play otherwise we are down to 12 men and no cigar.

I have said it before and I will say it again this imbecile will cost us our Super League dream.

Get shut of him today ! He infuriates me.

With you on both of those points, HRJ, Out of Acton and a general cigar ban for all paid athletes!

There's no doubt he's talented, but if he gets a 3 game ban for this latest incident he will have been banned for a third of our games this season. The negatives are starting to outweigh the positives

When is Acton's contract up ?

I could be wrong but seem to remember he signed an extended contract not too long ago ?
Personally I think he should take the rest of the season off *he will get a ban anyway* & if we should get promoted, loan him to Oldham for a season, if he doesn't change get rid.

Shame really as he is a big strong unit & could go far.

Perhaps we are being punished for daring to beat a super league club, lets face it Salfords Lui tackle on Mcnally deserved more than a penalty not to mention tackling above the shoulders on more than one occasion

As I said above Ste100, once the refs have your name in their heads and, what's more, once oppo coaches are whispering the same name in their ears, you are beggared.

He has only himself to blame - though a lot of people, including me, will also blame him.

Just in case I sound too sanctimonious, I have also thrown away a blooming career by not listening to a thousand warnings. Little Old Wine Drinker Me. In case anyone is wondering, no, it wasn't RL - gave that up after University. Even were I a young man, I wouldn't fancy the collisions nowadays!

i thought this thread was about Acton, not paranoia about the RFL .

Rubbish
