Grade D by the rugby league.

3-5 Match ban.

Fair enough, lets hope he only gets 3.

Biggest question now is who replaces him, I hope Radford has learnt from when he was out before and doesn't play Rankin/Pryce. Has to be Abdul or one of the 19's halfs.

Rule: 15.1(i) Detail – Dangerous Contact - Defender uses any part of his body forcefully to twist, bend or otherwise apply pressure to the limb or limbs of an opposing player in a way that involves an unacceptable risk of injury to that player. Grade D
Hopefull for just the 3. Got to be Abdul in the half's unless LR thinks there will be a bit more strike to the attack with Rankin in the half's and Shaul at FB?

Our worst attacking performances this season (Rovers, Sheffield, Hudds and Widnes) involved Rankin and Pryce in the halfs.

Fair enough . Did McGuire get charged for his kick to the head ?

Nah - Danny's actions were just fine.

"Player kicks out in reaction to actions of opponent. Minimal contact made. Sin Bin sufficient."

@PeteSmithYEP: Leeds Rhinos' Danny McGuire has had a scan on his ankle injury. No result yet, but indications are it's not as bad as 1st feared. #yeplive

Strange given that Tad Rhino confirmed it was "season-ending" last night.

Must be some mistake.

Can see him getting 5 games which means he'll only be available for the final regular season game at home to Wigan.
Stating the obvious but we could really have done without this getting down to the business end.

You called it last night. Cuthbertson next to be declared fit

Agreed although to be honest his last two performances have disappointed me massively. Needs to get a decent consistent level into his play with his kicking and his decision making if he's to be good enough at the top level. Still youngish but needs to improve. That said there's no obvious replacement - I like Abdull and thought he was good again yesterday so I'd go with him despite him being a bit heavyweight for a scrum half

Don't think it would be right to put one of the two young halves in for such a massive game next week although if he does go that way it would be a bold move.

Pretty much as I see it Staffs.

He's already done so. If they haven't got the results yet, how do they know it's better than expected? Wait until Sneyd's banned, then the big reveal?

I was expecting absolutely no news until after the hearing - let the panel assume it's broken.

Call me cynical but maybe they already know as McGuire may have been milking it?

Either way Sneyd is guilty or a careless tackle, watching it several times on the footage there doesnt seem to be any real full blooded attempt to actually twist the joint more just try to slow him down, careless and rightly should cop a ban.

McGuire rated "very doubtful" for Friday's game..

Other than the odd flash of brilliance, sneyd has been pretty disappointing this season for me, however he is the only one in the team with anything resembling a long kicking game. If we lose him for 3+ matches we'll really struggle in those games, particularly with mini likely out and maybe pryce, it will be a tall order for us to get anything out of Friday's game

It could be a doomsters paradise on here 10pm Friday.

Yeah, just wait for him to come out that tunnel on Friday though.

I don't doubt he's injured. Extent and severity tannoyed by Leeds management post match was hugely inflammatory before a diagnosis, and inappropriate IMO. Whether he's fit to play Friday or not I doubt he'll play. With us missing Mini and Sneyd, and possibly Pryce, they won't need him.

It was stupid play by Sneyd. Not malicious but he deserves a ban. Lets hope it's just three matches.

Cannot see us beating Leeds on Friday so just hope we can pick up the points against Wakefield in his absense.

Hope your not too surprised by his performances. Although he had a good early and middle part of the season at Cas he could not sustain it. He even went missing in their big matches at the end of the season play off and the Cup Final. You paid I think £100,000 for a player who has not had one decent full season in the top flight.

That coincided with their entire pack going missing as well but pick Sneyd out on his own if it makes you feel better.
