How come Tuson only got 1 match when he was on a charge that was for 2-3 matches? An early guilty plea would mean he would get the minimum of 2.

He wasn't given the chance of an early guilty plea. The guidelines are "recommended" tariffs with discretion to give a lower or higher penalty. I assume they took into account being punched in the back of the head while his back was turned as partial mitigation.

Awww, I was hoping for 5 so we could play somebody who may actually contribute something. I'd like to see a run for Forster to fill the vacancy. He made a good start earlier in the season and deserves another go.

Amusingly, on Hock's page, Mr Wane states that "...since joining Wigan Mr Hock’s behaviour has been impeccable both on and off the field...."

Can i add my opinion to all this, it wasn't much really was it? a few slaps here and there, gosh it was a derby game for heavens sake, last week a Leeds player put Makinson out for probably 2 or 3 games and had no case to answer, the fight on Sunday nobody was injured no blood spilt, goodness knows what some of the older players thought of it, and lets face it we all like a bit of a punch up!!!

Was it one game for the punching and 2 games for making a complete ass of himself?

Stupid. Thats all I can say.

Rugby League in this country is going soft. Its a physical game and tensions are bound to boil over now and again.

Its what we have a sin bin for.

It seems Hock is appealing his ban. He's squealing, saying LMS started it.
