People seriously feel the is a witch hunt against salford regarding being sent off ? Come on, salfords discipline is shocking. Anybody with brains and eyes can see that. Harris keeps banging on about it also.

However, I felt for griffin yesterday. My brain tells me that was a red but my heart says he should have gone to the bin for 10 mins. Child should have shown some heart Imo in which was a tough week for him.

I also agree that Griffins red card was a little harsh, 10 mins sufficient IMO. I think when its reviewed it should come back as 'sending off sufficient, no ban'. Childs should have shown a little compassion there. However, I think Josh Griffin will do well to escape a Grade B punching charge as it was clear to see him throw a punch at Phelps on the deck. It will be interesting to see whether Isa gets cited for reigniting things after it had calmed down, he made a beeline straight for Josh and went right up into his face.

St pete - You have issues with Salford and Marwan particular as is blatantly obvious by you constant rants on the VT about him. Let it lie. There are plenty of Saints players past and present I can't stand but I don't feel the need to troll other boards and tell all and sundry about it.

As for the Griffin incident it was a yellow at worst but Child is a grade A pr1ck so absolutely no surprise he flashed the red. I don't want to keep harping back to the Westwood incident back in the first game but like it or not we are being treated completely differently from other clubs. Yes we let ourselves down at times and a lot of those bans have been deserved but the length of some of the suspensions is laughable. I bet if you compare those bans against historical records we're probably the dirtiest team in the SL era!

Oh and don't get me started on the stats for Wigan, Wire and Leeds....

But Westwood had the World Club Challenge the week after so the RL took his "Previous Good Conduct" into account! Because let's face it he's a misunderstood soul with no previous who plays for a Top 4 Club

I hardly post on VT mate.

I'm open, I don't like koukash, I think he's a idiot who jumped in at the deep end and made lots of mistakes. He thinks money is the answer to everything but lately I think he's seen the light and realised that you can't throw a bunch of individuals and expect to be a team.

The fact I don't like Koukash doesn't make my opinion that your discipline is shocking.

Well if it's not the VT it must be the Stains board I've read you constantly bleating like a spoilt schoolgirl. You're obsessed. Oh and seeing as you're an expert on discipline would you like to.explain the difference between the late high shot just before half time in the Hudds-Catalans game and Griffin's yesterday? Looked every bit as bad from where km sat yet replayed once in the ground and nothing done.

Oh and if anyone else saw it please feel free to comment. I'm happy to be put straight if I'm wrong on this one.

Read my posts, I didn't think griffin should have seen red.

Not sure mate. It was right near the.sticks a minute or so before half time. Nothing given fir it and there was one very brief replay on the big screen. It seems like every time we play every incident is replayed 10 times to either disallow one of our tries or to award a penalty against us. I don't normally go for the "everyone's against us" school of thought but this season we just seem to get shafted every week. I can't think of one occasion coming away from a match thinking that we'd got the rub of the green.

Oh and I'm not one-eyed either, I know we're no angels but it really feels like the punishment isn't fitting the crime most of the time.

I thought similar last week against Warrington with Ormsby's third try. The video ref had a fleeting look from head on and gave a try immediately,( even though a later replay from behind shows it wasn't as clear cut and should have at least been looked at fro every angle possible) yet our try's are looked at from every angle time and time again, as though they are desperate to find a reason to disallow them.

Re: Match Bans By Club 2015 : Mon Jun 01, 2015 2:39 pm  

It wouldn't of mattered sky and the video refs hate us .along with everyone else in rugby league.i would love to go through every game with Stevo and Hemings look at the tackles and see why our players get banned for similar tackles.

Griffin charged with a grade C, but no charge for the Widnes player who threw an overhand right that causes Josh to react.
