You'd think I'd have worked it out by now

passion gets in the way, I understand!

The statement made was ' can't recall a sin binning for a yellow card'. All I did was point out, correctly, that Graeme Horne was sin binned for a high tackle.

Sorry I meant, The statement made was ' can't recall a sin binning for a High Tackle. All I did was point out, correctly, that Graeme Horne was sin binned for a high tackle.

Do you practice at being this thick or does it come naturally?

You can pretty much twist it which ever way you want to. Nobody has been sin-binned for a high tackle in isolation. But that's not quite what was said.

He'd have been sin binned for any offence that resulted in a penalty.

You seem to be struggling somewhat with the concept of a team warning. How long have you been following RL?

Deliberate attempt to hurt Crooks i would have said.

Started around the temple and ended up around the neck.

Both running in straight lines so he knew exactly what he was doing.

Do they take into account his NRL disciplinary record? It's all of 5 games since he got a 9 match ban for an intentional high shot, right?

He will take an early guilty plea and will mean nothing as injured anyway. The system works....

Still important it goes through the process,even if he is injured. If he is banned it will go on his record and presumably the next time he attempts to take somebodies head off he'll cop for a longer ban. We "might" gain but only if he smacks somebody in the game pre-Derby!

Given this is the first year of the gangnam style warning, I'd say it's pretty irrelevant. It's always been pretty much discretionary until now.
Think you need to take your own advice on not feeding trolls.

Glad he never got sent off as getting beat by 12 men would of sent some on here into something akin to a scene off of Scanners.

Actually all that's changed this season is the signal. In previous seasons the ref would warn the captain verbally.

Will he be able to enter an EGP since he's already served a ban over here? Even though it was the last few games of his ban from over there.

I don't know what the rules are but the report I read on the Sky Sports website suggested that he would be facing the RFL panel and didn't have an option of an early guilty plea.

Playing the ball in your own 30 is a "try scoring opportunity" where Rovers are concerned. Defending or attacking!

I think Grade B offences don't have the option of EGP. He is injured anyway, so the two matches he might get will be irrelevant.

Hull KR's Travis Burns banned for two games for a Grade B high tackle

so if he deserved a two game ban, he deserved to be sent off!

Get over it, you will see far worse this season that will go unpunished, even some of yours will commit them (hope you take the same attitude then), it's just the way the game goes.

it was a malicious tackle with intent! regardless of who was playing!

Could have changed the result if he'd been sent, even for ten.

The game is about punching people in the head?

It was as good an example of a send off high tackle as you get.
Both heading same direction, started across the face down to the neck, the arm was swung and was a fair way out so a simple mid section tackle would have done the job.
Not sure what would class as a more straight forward red. Front on you can argue footwork, balance, timing off etc.
Of all refs to bottle it I wouldn't have thought Ganson

The thing I disagree with in this situation is the general unfairness!!
The ban suggests that it should have been a red card. This potentially changes the game, and the result, on Friday. Now he's been banned for 2 games and Hull FC see no benefit of this. In fact, Sts and Huddersfield reap the benefit of our misfortune!!

I know there really isn't a fair way to do it but surely he should be banned for 1 game and/or the next game vs us. Players should fulfill their bans against the team they offended against IMO!

Why should other teams benefit?
