That's easy, He doesn't play for Leigh.

Forgot all about that

Didn't he get a red card for that?

He did indeed,i thought he would have got at least 3 games

I've just seen McMeekins 'swinging arm' shot on Stewart, cleaned him out


This tackle is worse than Glen's shot on Brown as, that was a one-on-one, McMeekin was an additional tackler


Getting fed up of this, its time the club asked for a meeting to get to the bottom of these decisions!
How many players have we had concussed this season and they have missed subsequent games from failed head tests? Paterson,Higson,Brown,Acton and Hansen are just some I can remember

Exactly! Double Standards. And the repercussions are BIG for players, fans, clubs, finances. And this is why it was important Derek highlighted this disparity in the way he did. Radford has also publicly raised this issue over the weekend.

Any mention of Roberts being headlocked and choked by one of your players?

Nope. Didn't see that one through my cherry & white tinted specs, but if it happened, it re-enforces my belief that the 'Review Panel' are being somewhat selective in their reviews and maybe that's a big reason for the inconsistencies that I believe are rife in the process.

Didn`t Watts get sent off earlier in the season too?
Very odd that he gets one match for a blatant head high tackle gets sent off for about 5 minutes whilst Stevie Ward uses an EGP gets binned for ten minutes and banned for the 1 game after getting punched before retaliating.
No wonder we all moan.

Yes,it doesn't seem previous has been taken into account, does it!

3rd ban of the season for Liam Watts.....

think the disciplinary men should have to explain the decision to only give Watts one game.Thats if they have the nerve to.

It seems Clark the instigator of the fight has previous doesn`t use his egp and gets 1 game.
Ward on the other hand has no previous uses his egp and gets 1 game.

I'm not sure where our players should be tackling? Higson's banned for tackling 'High' and Crooks is banned, for tackling 'Low'

This McMeekin Guy who cleaned Glen Stewart out, also lead with the fourarm/shoulder to flatten Josh Drinkwater

Has he been pulled by the review Panel ?
Just imagine Hock or Acton hitting Gayle with either of those attacks



Sky and Eddie would go to town

Its Frightening to think what Childs will do tomorrow when we face the likes of Ferris, Jones Buchanan, Ablett and Cuthbertson


Great Monday in store for the review Panel


Jones Buchanan was sin binned last match 2016 for bending Greg Wothington's leg up his back which, (ended any further part in the game for Greg!) He was subsequently handed a three match ban, all wiped out in pre-seasons friendly's

To be quite honest, I'm fed up with trying to understand how Acton's push in Salford player Flanagan's back warranted four match ban


How can the assaults McMeekin did not warrant anything ?

Yes, he was pulled by the Review Panel. The Disciplinary said no case to answer, as Josh didn't hurt his head. If that is the criterion of whether a player is suspended or not, the unfortunate guy who Crooks fouled, didn't hurt his head either!

I can understand inconsistency in referees, because they are split seconds decisions, but inconsistency in disciplinary astounds me.

How is Crooks' tackle worse than the two that Danny Brough committed in the same game, yet only got one game each for. Imo it wasn't even the force of the contact that caused the injury, it was the angle the the standing tacklers sent the player down that made it a bad tackle.

Crooks plays for Leigh.

I didn't know that, I will have to re-think my comments.

Gotcha! reffy responding to a bit of sarcasm.

How does this work?

MIKE MCMEEKEN - CASTLEFORD
LEIGH V CASTLEFORD - SUPER LEAGUE
DETAILS OF CHARGE / REASON FOR NF :

Player running decoy line and collides with opponent who is in the defensive line. Player makes contact to chest area of opponent and force of contact knocks him down to the ground. =#FF0000No contact with head of opponent. Penalty sufficient.

DECISION:

No charge

INCIDENT:

=#FF0000Contact with the head of opponent in the 42nd minute (Drinkwater)

What does Josh Think?
Dont think Jaimie Acton made contact with Flanagans Head either

The whole system needs reforming.
