Salford certainly deserve to be punished, but sadly that will do nothing to redress the damage that has already been done to the integrity of the competition. Rowley behaved like a petulant child with his ridiculous team selection and the nonsensical reasons he gave for it, and Salford basically chose to screw over the rest of the league just to make a daft point. Rowley has always come across as a prickly character, and you can now even lose the 'ly character' part from that description, it seems.

They & he have not done themselves any favours. I have moved them up the list of my least favourite teams (that will teach 'em).

Never liked Rowley, pity he wasn’t out there with a Salford shirt on facing the saints forwards, I’d would have paid to watch that

My opinion is nothing will come from it since this as gone on for far too long in the first place.

As it stands restrictions still in place this week and also a story going around the new CEO as left.
