Absolute horse $hit call that. Clipped him on the beak as he was falling down.

Seems shoulder charges to the head are ok, accidental contact with the nose not so.

I give up

Weve been F**ked over good and proper again, after last week we are clearly being discriminated against as a club and their not trying to hide it anymore, GH needs to take the MRP and RFL to task.

Another embarrassing call from the MRP

1 game ban for Martin

This is devastating for us, we need to stick an appeal in asap

This really is incredible.
It's not even a penalty.
Surely we're appealing.

No wonder fans are losing interest and we can't attract new fans.
The people who run the game are an embarrasment.

Did whoever it was that flattened Mik after he'd passed the ball get a ban?

I agree about appealing. Surely even those clowns could not say that’s worth 2 games.

It is and Martin has copped for probably the 2 most ridiculous bans of the lot this year, how did the cas player who was binned not get a ban?!

If the ban does stand I hope it galvanises us further and we go in to battle for him.

I’ve said it before, if I was GH I’d be looking at legal action.

I’m not one for corruption in sport, but clearly something isn’t right here. Catalans kick up a stink about anything, like they did when they got beat in the GF the other year and they’re CEO said they’d never play a final in England again.
Can’t upset the franchise mob, they still have to convince fans that they’re worth the millions that have been pumped into them over the years.

Re: SL PO E | Catalan Dragons (A) : Mon Sep 05, 2022 4:53 pm  

The MRP are clearly giving bans based on the player reaction.
Mellor stays down holding his face, so therefore he must have been hit in the face.....
Players are realising this and are staying down - Levi did it against us the other week.
We're in danger of going the way football started to go 30 years ago and has now become a total joke - a non-contact sport.
I'm glad my Dad and Grandad (both ex-pro's) are not around any more to see how soft the game is becoming!!

I've watched Untold Operation Flagrant Foul on Netflix today. Without giving any spoilers, there's a bit where a referee is talking about the NBA's agenda to have certain players and teams available, on the court and in the playoffs. It made me think about Super League and what's happening with the MRP. Then this ban is announced and it makes even more sense. There needs to be an investigation into corruption in the sport. This has happened too many times to just be unlucky.
