Just seen a post that says Minchella’s appeal is being dealt with next week. Hmm seems very fishy even in Hull.

Re: This week’s disciplinary : Tue Sep 17, 2024 6:45 pm  

Just read it.... The legal team have a cunning plan.......
Just read the mins of PV appeal, frankly I'm sure the RFL have a bias towards him. Grade D 2/3 games, he got 4 in real terms so why wasn't that red card taken into consideration?
KR will get a downgrade to B & therefore 1 game.
Hope I am wrong.

I posted something similar on our thread as potentially he could miss the final should they get there.
Whilst he can play against us on Friday I seriously don`t see us a threat to them not getting the 2 points.

He can't play on Friday. They have accepted a 1 match ban, they're challengng the grading and the second game. Minchella isn't in Hull KR's 21 man squad.

Cheers for that. Thought it was risky!

Agreed. The Billington one for Huddersfield was a high outstretched arm that caught Thewlis flush on the chin. No idea how that is judged to be less of a 'crime' than the kind of accidental impacts you are referring to.

Its the shoulder to the head they're judging strictly and trying to clamp down on. Arms to the head don't attract the same punishment. A lot of the time they're not even getting yellow cards if the contact isn't big

I think I've sussed out why chella has deffered his hearing.
If they win tomorrow he'll continue to challenge for reduction to 1 as he's served it and free for home tie semi.
If they lose, then he will accept 2 as it'll be Catalans at home, so he'll then have served 2 and will be free for the semi..
If he just gets 2 after hearing, it'll be 3 games he'll miss it all
So really it's a matter of win or lose.
Isn't it.

If only I could work this one out, then I'd be in Lee Mack's 1% club.
