Quite possibly.

Looking at the video footage of the incident I would say that sending off will be sufficient. There is no malice in Greg's tackle he was committed Imo . Soward had no right to go after Greg and tackle him from behind either , a few punches thrown but that's about it .

When would the hearings be? Are they a week delayed like in regular round, or brought forward with SL clubs?

Video of the incident. rugbyleagueweek.com.au/soward-se ... ncos-loss/ It seemed worse at the time. Greg a bit late on Soward although he did look committed to the tackle. Over reaction from Soward to run after him after a try has been scored and tackle him from behind. Bit of a scuffle on the floor but broken up quickly by other players. 1 match each?

No weeks delay now we are at the 8s stage as far as I know

My concern there is Acton.He shouldn't be anywhere near it.

.....or the team for the rest if the 8's! Complete liability all game. We need to ship him out to Torronto at the end of the season. Hasn't got the ability to change his ways.

Well Worthy has got a Grade A and a Grade C, and Soward has got a Minor Grade A. Click on the link, and scroll down for all the info www.rugby-league.com/the_rfl/disciplinary

So, could get up to 4 games then?

Reckon he's played his last game for us unless we have injuries towards back end of play offs. Shame really, was starting to show why we paid a fee for him.

UNBELIEVABLE one gets grade A other gets Grade A.and C Worthy tackles latish Broncos blokes goes after him.brings him down that caused the handbag scrap the Brincos bloke should have been charged for attacking Worthy from behind once again the idiots at Disiplinary show there Empty Yedishness

So NFA or 1 Game for Soward the Coward & up to 4 games for Greg, hardly seems right that.

Add to that the really nasty & cowardly shot of Brough being considered for 2 > 3 matches, meaning he will face Leigh, no wonder the RFL can't command any respect.

Yep, Iv'e just posted that info on another thread. Hope he gets 3 and misses the Leyth match.

Wouldn't he need a 4 game ban to miss the Leigh game?

Our next three games are Salford, Fev and Hull KR

Well Leigh were top of the league for poor discipline throughout the regular season,so it wouldn't surprise me if the (bent/corrupt) RFL take that as a big aggravating factor, for them to punish us like they do.The funny thing is though,we were top of that league due to defending ourselves or retaliating.

Of course, silly me.Now where's that abacus.

Diabolical, not even a charge for taking him out from behind and off the ball.What video do these men review?

Sean O'Loughlin got 1 match for this tackle that ended the other players season.

I fully expect Greg to get far more punishment for having the cheek to object to getting tackled from behind when the ball isn't even in play

After watching the video several times,it is pure evident that worthy was committed to the tackle. Coward released the ball a fraction of a second before worthy made contact,so in my eyes it wasn't late and he never took him out. If worthy gets a ban for that,then the RFL need to change the rules to No tackling- tick and pass only.

Thaler overreacted, yellow would have been enough for both.

Got to agree with Nozzy though , there's no comparison to the O' Loughlin tackle . Any further punishment to either player would be an injustice. Was a slight skirmish at the most.

Agreed, Atomic, the board know him all too well at present. My clapped-out I-pad 1 won't allow me to view any of the replays, so I'm unable to say if he was acting as peacemaker or piledriver. The other code (the one that must not be named save by the Boy that Lived) used to have a reasonably sensible rule about punch-ups. Let's face it, they are going to happen in one of the most high-impact, full contact sports. The two initial combatants would therefore only receive a ticking off from "Sir". The third aggressor (ie the one who opens the way for a free for all battle) would however be given his marching orders. I worked in SE England for a number of years and turned out in Union games (am I that boy?) but have been repatriated for well over a decade now. Dunno if that's still the rule. Probabably not with hoe-ring lawyers quite literally soliciting all over the place! If the RFL can get away with that one, IMO that would be a great step forward.

This was always the case in Amateur RL, captains were always told, "third man in is off". The likes of Acton, Higson amongst others would have completed many games.

Greg back to fev then?
