I don't even remember seeing it either live or on the TV!

What did he do? Something needs to happen about this. Everyone is being sold short by the RFL here. Clamp down heavily on foul play, but these mistimed or marginal tackles are just ruining it.

IIRC it wasn’t even penalised at the game and not brought up by SKY and given I think Clarkey was co-commentating (?) had he been guilty of foul play surely he would have been on his soap box about it given his hatred of all things Leeds

It’s beyond a joke now!

I assume it's at 24:05 on the Sky coverage as the RFL minutes talk about 25:15 OPTA timings. To most of us a 2 match ban seems harsh but it's now way past the point where the players just have to get it into their heads not to do this.

Fecking joke yet again.
Did I read somewhere that Hurrell has been pulled for 3 late hits recently and not received a ban?
Has Sezer copped anything or Richardson for the elbow to the face?

Re: 2022 | Injuries & Suspensions : Mon Jul 11, 2022 4:30 pm  

The Huddersfield half back (Russell?) got hit virtually every time he kicked out of hand.
So, presumably a load of Salford players have got bans?

Yeh, thought not....

I wouldn’t start moaning now. I pointed out what a joke it had become last season when Tet was banned for 4 games for marginal late hit vs Saints in CC.
Most on here were in favour, so it sounds bit daft being so ‘outraged’ now

I really do think Leeds and maybe other clubs should take this further.
It would be easy for a solicitor to put together various offences over the season and compare them to the bans received.
If and I know I am biased here.
But if it is proved there is a clear case of wrong doings then it should be up to the RFL to explain their logic.
