Didn't he also get red carded twice in his first season for head hunting [or lazy technique] ?

No he got too sin bins for challenging the kicker late.

One was against Wakefield. Funny how it didn't get noticed when they took out Scott Hill late, but anyway, ho hum…

As I recall, it was Howell who thumped Croker initially in the Catalans debacle, so he's probably got more of a record than anyone else in the Quins side. Shade lucky perhaps, but I'm pretty happy about it as a key player for us.

As I recall, Croker thumped Howell off the ball after Quins had been awarded a penalty; Howell retaliated, all hell broke loose, and when the ref had finally calmed everything down it was Catalans who go the penalty, not us, and this cost us the match. (And Croker didn't get any ban at all.)

Was it not Mogg who he got involved with, who did get 1 game

I remember seeing 2 people on Howell.
Mogg was probably one of them if he was playing in the centres in that game.

Maybe I'm getting some names mixed up but I'm certain the Catalans player who got involved with Howell right at the start of the incident wasn't the player who got the one match ban.

It's a farce how some oppossing players get away scot free in incidents against us. Who could forget Martin Aspinwall's kung fu kick on Jon Wells five years ago?

Admittedly I'm not exactly au fait with the way the Fair Play index works, but with a sending off being 4 points and 'game ban' being 5, has Howell cost us 19 points?



Or a simple 9?

I would imagine 3 x 5 = 15
