Very True Waldo From The RFL site Reasons for Decision Having viewed the DVD it is accepted this was a good initial tackle. As the players go to ground there is clearly some head contact from the tackling player at his instigation. There is tangling of legs and use of feet from both players. It is accepted there is some provocation by the tackling player. The retaliation from the player uses punches of considerable force to the head of the opponent who goes to ground. In deciding the appropriate sanction the tribunal take into account the acceptance of guilt, the remorse shown and the player’s dismissal from the field at an important time in the match. Taking into account the players previous record which includes punching this tribunal feel that a 2 match suspension and £300 fine are appropriate. - See more at: http://www.rugby-league.com/the_rfl/dis ... 9V8lV.dpuf

Predictable outcome, you can't defend Green's actions. Fact is though 2 players threw punches & only 1 got punished. Wonder what the referee's report said?...we got the penalty for bad language?

Ref's Report read as follows:
Green's punches on Cox - 5.8 for artistic impression and 5.9 for technical merit.

Cox's punches on Green - 3.7 for artistic impression and 3.4 for technical merit. On the basis of the fact that Cox does not have a brain that most people can identify as vaguely human, he was also awarded a mark of 4.3 in the required elements section as Green's final knockout punch fleetingly appeared to knock some sense into him.

Imo -The referee and linesmen might as well have been judges at a skating competition for all the use they were in officiating at an RL game.
