Also, not desperate just looking for the RFL to be consistent for once, Wakefield deserve a fine and only Wakefield should be fined because of the precedent the RFL have set in the past.

Gronk, there were some disgraceful scenes on Friday night, including an element of non-rugby fans who appeared to be there to involve themselves in some sort of disorder.
If there were fireworks thrown and I personally didnt see any, they were of the silent variety because I didnt hear any either.
"Supporters" of both teams were involved and to try and blame one faction more than another is futile.
I hope the investigation can rid the game of all those who brought shame on a family sport, so I suggest you wait for the enquiry outcome before stating so many "facts", especially as you wern't even there.

Arguing aside I am not condoning the actions of any Wakefield fans causing trouble. I hope the perpetrators are
banned for life if any evidence is actually found.

As do I with any Cas fans that were at fault.

The incident was before the game

More often than not crowd trouble occurs in RL at a game that has been built up into a special event and as such attracts a crowd much larger than would usually be expected. This inevitably includes a limited number of individuals who don't normally attend matches and are there principally to stir up trouble.

As a Cas fan I attended a number of games at Post Office road in the 2 seasons that Cas spent outside of superleague and never saw any significant trouble. There was a degree of mouthing off by young 'cappers outside of the ground to Cas fans after the game but the club can't be blamed for that and of course nothing ever results from that unless the people being mouthed off at choose to react.

That said, I was at the Wakey game on Good Friday stood near the front of the North terrace and was completely unaware that any trouble had gone on until reading about it on the forums after the game. When we came out of the ground at the end we were shocked by the number of police outside and passed comment about it not being a football match!

Then despite the crossed wires we both want the same thing.

I notice that all clubs say they will be ban for life do these people also get a heavy fine and taken to court. The reason I ask is firstly I don't know but if they have only come to cause bother banning them wont hurt that much it would only hurt if they were supporters that turn up all the time

Well I was in the north stand from 6:30 and never saw or heard fireworks being thrown. Stood in north stand all match didnt see no trouble at all it was only when I was on line when I got home that trouble was mentioned Si can't have been that bad. Cas fans trying to get WTRLFC fined I reckon.
