8pm in France, so 7pm here. But yes, it does make sense to move it later.

Ooops my bad


So Sezer not even called by the disciplinary (right decision)

Prior gets two games and Liam Watts gets two games for things that weren't even penalised I don't think (or was watts head high hit on Donaldson?)

But Newman could be available as Leeds have requested an appeal hearing of the RFL decision

We'll probably get another 5 matches added to it, I hope we aren't frivolous!

Re: RD 19 | Toulouse (A) : Mon Jul 11, 2022 3:03 pm  

This frivolous nonsense is indicative of the attitude of the whole officiating arm of the governing body IMO. The Bentley one after Warrington game was the worst one, come up with evidence and video footage that directly refutes the written judgement then get an extra game for being frivolous- uphold the ban by all means but to add further games despite new evidence...?

Absolutely the man in the middle is the one in charge but the attitude shown by some of the referees towards players is incredibly disrespectful and very much "we know best now go away and if you dare ask any questions we'll just penalise further". I think referees like Thaler and even Bentham etc had a way of speaking with players whereas the current lot talk down rather than to players.

I dont generally buy into the whole "theyre against us" rhetoric but I think it's probably fair to say Leeds/Agar quite possibly rubbed the MRP up the wrong way over the last 12-18 months with some of the comments that have been made...

All of that said, we've made a point in press releases/conferences of how we've taken independent advice from former Grade A refs etc. Well, whoever, we're asking we need to ask someone else considering we've not had a successful appeal yet!

Oledzki, Walters and Thompson props this week.

I see Mustapha has missed four Rhinos matches since his 5 match ban. Has he been able to use any other matches towards his final match i.e. Bradford or the reserves?

Re: RD 19 | Toulouse (A) : Mon Jul 11, 2022 7:50 pm  

Still going to be 36F at 8pm (although I would imagine it might not be as bad).

Re: RD 19 | Toulouse (A) : Mon Jul 11, 2022 8:15 pm  

36F, brrrr….

Think you mean 36C mate.

Re: RD 19 | Toulouse (A) : Tue Jul 12, 2022 4:25 pm  

Ridiculous that every teams fans go to the disciplinary every Tuesday to see who they've had banned even though nothing was said or done during the game. Tariq Sims has just copped a one match ban despite being sin-binned twice in the same game for St George! We have Matt Prior on a two game ban for a late hit no one even saw at the time! Killing the game as a spectacle!

No he hasn’t, as you can only use one match per game week, we’ve had a game every week since the ban.
