It's to be hoped the any recordings / transcripts are available to club which show a grade F is justifiable, as unless Griffin used derogatory terms or some extreme language F seems excessive. Would calling Kendal a joke be classed a Grade F in all seriousness?'"
If the club thought there was any mileage in appealing i think they would but they know the facts
he has no defence

| Quote ="bonaire"Quote ="Armavinit"You have to remember that the ref, linesmen and video ref are wired for sound together, so whatever was said was witnessed by all of the officials. Grade F isn’t to be taken lightly and wouldn’t have been referred to tribunal unless they have either witnesses or corroborative recordings. I’m amazed the BBC didn’t have it on screen but I haven’t watched it. Didn’t they have Kendall’s voice over on the show? I would guess 8 matches if found guilty, especially after the Cas incident.'"
Youre an F ing joke Not you Armavinit
thats what was said'"
If that is what was actually said then I'm sorry but that does not warrant a grade F charge.
If this is the situation then it just sums up how out of touch Kendal is with the game and lacks any ability to effectively communicate with players in game situation when tempers, adrenaline and occasions are high.
All he had to do to calm the situation down was talk to the player instead of being unapproachable like he was as though he is above everyone.

If the charge is questioning Kendal’s integrity and he was called a cheat or bent I’d tend to agree. However if Griffin has said along the of ‘lovin joke’ about the decision then my word the MRP are going to doing overtime from now on. Nearly every player when a decision goes against them utters the same sort of response.
Kendal is there to officiate by carrying out the rules and keep things from getting out of hand. In the first 40 mins his performance was certainly questionable as the Fash decision alone shows with the MRP proving both Kendal and the official to have got it wrong.
Kendals has an arrogance about him and for someone who apparently played the game has little respect himself for players and seems power goes to his head.
Yes Griffin should have known better and kept quiet but Kendal should have also have the ability to speak with a player to defuse rather escalate situations. I think Kendal arrogance got the better of him with the speed of the red less than 4 seconds after the yellow when the player in question is walking away.
For me Kendal shows he has t the personality or ability to handle this sort of situation or occasion.

| I went to me first game at KC for 13 years and the atmosphere was excellent
The fans really got behind the team !!!
Griffin - what a clown and lost us the game simple as that
This week v Saints - this time I see a
massive loss
2nd half defence - I watched the Saints player 10m out run at Savelio and it was as plain as day he’d score - Savelio was like soft cheese
It was beyond easy
Litten has no defence ability head on - the Saints player literally walked over and through him
the other 2 tries were almost the same - it’s not tired players but low intensity as only scored these tries 10-15 mins into 2nd half
That defence would scare the hell out of me as a coach and Saints must be licking their lips for Thursday when the atmosphere drops off and FC feel
sorry for themselves
COYH but not convinced on this one

They only scored 1 try in the first 15 minutes of the second half.
Dodd scored the second one around the hour mark?
Whilst some players need to work on tackling, a current work in progress, some of them were shattered by the time Dodd scored. That was a result of tackling a team much bigger than them and the fact that some haven’t played a lot of rugby lately and are still improving their fitness.
We desperately need some big forwards.

| Losing Taylor early on was a big factor that is getting over looked due to the cards issued. Unfortunately with releasing Evans and not bringing in a suitable replacement when we then lose someone like Taylor the way he's been playing this season we are going to struggle in a game whether we have 12 or 13 on the field.

| We all think certain referees have a bias to certain teams,but a player is the last person to tell the referee what he thinks.
Its a pity really because griffin is probably playing the best rugby of his life.

| Be interesting to see who gets rested when the squad gets announced later.
Low on troops, but TS alluded to bringing some fresh players in

| I don't understand the reasoning for bringing in Lovodua. He is 99% likely to be leaving, so why bring him in? Balmforth should be in, give him a chance. Or, do we think he may start with McNamara at 9, with Lovodua on the bench for the 'Dwyer' spark

It would seem the lack of seeing Balmforth indicates he’s not going to be at the club post season or TS just doesn’t think he’s ready. If Dwyer doesn’t feature from now until the end of season I wouldn’t be unhappy. Really don’t see why Warrington have re signed him tbh.
Would rather go with giving McNamara a run at 9 over Dwyer if Balmforth isn’t going to feature this season.

Yeah, I agree with that. I can see Mc becoming a hooker, but long term, he really needs to work on some acceleration out of acting half. He doesn't need prolonged speed, but he does need a 5 yard burst and I can see him having a decent career as a 9

I'd agree with that other than possibly leave Dwyer out altogther and go with McNamara or Lovodua to spell Houghton at 9. With Taylor missing feel we need to also have Gardiner on the bench as we look so light.

| Brown needs a big game if selected. He was one player who I thought would really kick on under TS, and he has looked really poor all year. Granted, he hasn't had a long run, but looks to have really stalled in his development

Same starting 13 but a bench of Brown, Satae, Gardiner and Lovodua.
See this and Cats game as a free hit tbh.

Absolutely, anything from the next 2 games are bonus points.
We've not got a bad run in after these games with both Cas and Hudds twice.
