Its a level playing field they keep telling us, not when it comes to wakefield its not

What an absolute joke the RFL panel are. One match for a bit of argy-bargy that you see week in week out. Yellows each would have done especially with the game being early season and niggly throughout. Yet Crusaders player Adam Peek, (maliciously in my opinion) attacks the head of Delaney with his elbow splitting his head open and gets nothing except a caution. Shocking.

We will never win mate, its wakefield

The red cards were probably fair. But the aftermath punishment doesn't add. Surely use the use of head warrants more of a ban than punching. The only thing that could made this outcome could have been that LMS has a very clean discilinary record before this incident. It could be that they looked at Richards record and thought it was fair. I don't always think there is consitancy when it comes to the panel.

Although at the game I didn't see what happened, I did see the Super League show.With LMS not having an exemplary disciplinary record and appearing to be the most aggressive,how can there be such a disparity in the fines ?

The biff is officially over. A dark day indeed.

Agreed, we don't want mass punch ups but hell its a mans game.

Once again the RFL disciplinary confuse everyone.

They look at the incident and decide both players are to be charged and a what grade they should be charged.

Then this is the bit i just dont get:

LMS is charged with a grade B and Moore with a Grade A

The grading dictating punishment,so how the hell can the player charged with the offence with least applicable punishment end up being punished the most??

Both players have been sent off once in the last 3 years.

They RFL Disciplinary really do make themselves look very stupid.

Might be proportionate to there salaries... £300 in Moore's case might be 5% of his weekly income whereas LMS' £200 fine might make up 80% of his salary therefore punishing LMS more if you the jist

Wakefield never seem to appeal any ruling from the disciplinary, WHY ???.

With these decision's the panel have set themselves a benchmark that punching and head butting gets at least a one match ban.So lets see if they carry it on through the season.

The fine is to offset the cost of travel from London to Leeds.

No worries bud.

Totally agree with that what a joke

Interesting that in the RFL report it mentions that it was Oli Wilkes that started it all by punching Mr Moore in the scrum (unusual name for a body part I know

), so obviously no love lost their

Totally bizarre.
Lms gets less of a punishment for a head butt, surely far worse than a punch or so the grading suggests!
At the same meeting Kirkpatrick gets a fine but no ban for "striking", surely this means punch and coyle gets one match and no fine for a high tackle.
In summary Moore and Qakefield come off worst for what was probably the least offence.
My concern with appealing would be that they would increase his punishment as their thought processes appear non existent.

if i have told you once i have told you a million times all posters are allowed an exaggeration allowance

Maybe they thought that Moore was the instigator?

Read the report!! It states that Moore was retaliating to a punch from Wilkes in the scrum











Well that's Richard's story anyway................and he's sticking to it

chill out all last time we came home from qimms we ended up loosing 2 players one of whom ran off to daddy

i aint gonna argue with richie

Not sure who started what, I was too busy following play to see what happened. Neither did I see the SLS either, so I personally cannot comment what went on. What was noticeable though was after the dust had settled and Smith had listened to the tj was that Quinns were awarded the pen, and on that basis maybe thats why RM got fined more than that head the ball. Just a thought.

Wasn't there an alleged altercation in training last year where Moore cow tailed Ollie form behind?Creating a lot of bad feeling surprisingly enough.

Yep, that's why I reffered to there being no love lost. Think it was Celtic away when they both appeared to be rather black around the eye area

Too subtle for me mate.

Not something im accused of very often

True.
