The thing is though is that the appeal was against the length of ban,he pleaded guilty to the offence. He has now been punished the same as Ben Flower. unbelievable

So would you keep him or not, given our position and future status?

Just a thought, If this occurred on the last game of the 8s, Would they have given him 4 months then?

BTW - I would keep him.

Ive just seen the video and cant see what he's actually done wrong its a physical game , to me its no different than 2 players squaring up , its nit like there was intent to cause harm , bit careless yes but nothin I havent seen a thousand times.

Careless? It was pointless- he had no reason to go anywhere near bird for the purpose of playing the game of rugby league. Was he involved in the original tackle? Was he tackling a player with the ball? Was he attempting to get the ball? If you think this is ok based on the crap you've witnessed in the championship then perhaps you'd be better off going back there!
I hope you are playing devils advocate because you can't truly think this is an acceptable action for a professional RL player.

What WERE his motives?

he migth have been expecting Bird to return to his feet so he could square up to show his disaproval , Bird stayed down then Acton put him back down , its not as though he did a Ben Flower , I couldnt actually beleive he got banned at all , see simila every other week.

Re: Jamie Acton : Thu Jul 20, 2017 9:52 pm  

Bird could have been laid there with a neck injury, so for Acton to do what he did wasn't just pointless, it was utter stupid

He could have spontaneously exploded too , Acton could have done a Ben Flowers and you could say the same thing when any player pics an opposing player up after a tackle , hes been done for a late challenge , it wasnt really a challenge.
