‘’The 21-year-old received a zero-match penalty notice for a late hit against Huddersfield Giants in July but a grade A charge only carries a ban if the player has been found guilty of two or more offences in the previous two years’’

I don't know how welsby is a grade A with 0 games, hasn't he been banned before? It's either not a high tackle or its worthy of more than that.

there was absolutely nothing wrong with Welsby's tackle. Just another example of how soft the game has become ps I didn't agree with Martin's ban , that was ridiculous too.

Well the review panel have called it a high tackle. I don't want tackles like that banned either but if they were consistent at all he wouldn't be playing on Saturday and that's what's a joke

Lets get on with the game now we can argue about previous wrong decisions but for once I think they have called it right this week. Saints appealing has to be deemed frivolous after the Martin verdict. Its a free hit for Saints as its England games he will miss if ban extended.

Why did Martin get one game bans on each of his Grade A?

Because they are the MRP and they do what they want...

The lack of consistency is terrible.
Kasiano on Dwyer was worse than Welsby or Martin on Mellor.
First didn't get called up,second is 0 match nd third was 1+1 on appeal lol

Leeds by 6.
