But Urbancarrott says "dear god" so it must be devastating!!

Stu will get banned for chuckin his head about. That's about it. Like I said on another thread, been worse in a bloody convent!

Right, here's my two penneth:

Hicks needs to be nailed to the wall for this bad call to start with.
Dickens may well get a ban, I haven't seen any playbacks but seemingly there's conclusive evidence to support his charge. AHEM Mr Hicks, Dickens played the final few minutes of the game which turned out to be crucial, Ashall didn't. Fev got away with this result on the back of a poor call from Dicks.

I ain't seen any replays either but suspect that your sport on MM. I still think if that Ashall had stayed on Fax would have won last week, for me your best player on the day.

We had a couple of players who had teeth knocked out last season without action against the player involved. Stuff happens, if there was a headbut then it will probably be a 3 match ban, as for the others (both teams), it will depend on their past record which smacks of punishing players twice to me.
Not sure the result would have been different, it's all ifs and buts. The main thing is that both teams will be in the knock out stages and could well meet again and that should attract a massive crowd after last Sunday's game

My fear ( in the case of the Fax players ) is that retaliation is treat more harshly than the aggressor !

Re: Five up before RFL : Sun Mar 04, 2012 2:58 pm  

The standards of match officials is crap across the the Pro game. We have Refs who are afraid to make a decision without the Vid Ref. We have others who think they should be the main thing in the game- Yes you Gansen and Silverwood!We sadly get young Refs shoved through who have next to no experience and struggle. But the problem is not with the Refs and Linemen. The problem is Stuart Cummins who refuses to admit that the standards should be better and is as arrogant now as he was when he Reffed. The Disciplinary also needs to realize is Rugby League is a hard sport where passions run high sometimes. It would be good if a little bit of common sense was used. I dont know how 5 people have neen told to go to the disciplinary. The maximun would be 2 people. The alleges headbutt and the player who responded. Fans like to see a bit of viff on the field and as long as its within reason then I dont see whast the problem is.

To be honest I can see both sides. Yes it's wrong to head but someone, yes it's wrong for one player to thump another on the ground. Yes if it happened on the street the wrong doers would be arrested. But it wasn't on the street, it was on the pitch in the heat of the moment and I guarantee anyone, those "aggressors" will have shaken hands in the bar.
We are only 3 games into the season, warn all 5 that next time? but now, come on a warning is enough.,
Let's move on.

Hang on, they can't do that - we've (Leigh) got two up before the Disciplinary too and we're at Fev next week! Ban the Fev three and let ours off - that's what I say!!

Quite right Alan' these Yorkshire teams are a dirty bunch. Our lads will both have no case to answer.

Another Fev player sent off today

And deservedly so!

Re: Five up before RFL : Mon Mar 05, 2012 3:33 pm  

Craig Ashall has pleaded guilty early and received a one match ban.


- According to the Courier anyway...
