He's banned from the Wakey board (unfairly of course like they all are)


I expect you guys can see why though.

Can we ban him from here for that comment please?

I have removed him for 7 days from this board.

After that its down to the Cas mods.

We have those?

Based on his Twitter, Scruton isn't too bright either - getting into a foul mouthed abuse laden argument with a troll, trying to tell anyone who listen the tackle on O'Brien was clean and somehow managing to get on the wrong train

Down to you mods but if posting comments designed to belittle a member who has already explained to this prat about his brain injury are not worthy of a permanent bad, you can count me out.

I've deleted the post, and i intend to ban him too, though truth be told i cant find the link to do so (having never banned anyone) but will find out how to rectify this, thanks for stepping in and helping out El Ray, you wakey lot aren't all bad

I have had a bit of time to absorb the game and watched it twice. So back on topic.

First forty was a contest, but I always felt like we were hanging in there, I guess becuase our main attack was sitting clearing his head on the bench, t'other one resting.

We have a problem that (FIRST time I ever criticised this coach, becuase I think he is an inspiring man and if you don't concur then ask him to talk to you about playing and achievment.) anyway, I digress.
We didn't seem to have the confidence to keep going through our processes from the plan, play a set and kick well. When it got grim and the Bulls defence was in their push and pinning us back, we went one out and bad kick.

To beat anyone we are going to have to hang in there, believe and play OUR game, this stage of the season nobody is easy beat and everyone can be got at.
Result was inevitable, couple of individuals trying to 'save' their colleagues.

So you didn't feel lucky when Rangi Chase took out Hardaker with a cheapshot last week, and stayed on the pitch?

Oh deary me...

Bulls Prop Nick Scruton was tonight fined £300 after being found guilty of a reckless high tackle on Castleford's Gareth O’Brien.
Scruton, was accompanied by Head Coach Francis Cummins and Football Manager Stuart Duffy and the trio argued that the tackle was legal and to the shoulder of his opponent.
The Disciplinary panel listened to the argument and felt that tackle was not serious enough to warrant a Grade B charge and downgraded the offence to Grade A. They then imposed a fine of £300 but no suspension, pointing out that players making tackles had a duty of care to their opponent but acknowledging that the initial contact had been with the shoulder.
Scruton is therefore free to play against St Helens on Saturday.

Fair decision. The panel have found Scruton guilty of a high tackle, which it was as it made contact with the head. However, they believe the initial impact was on the shoulder and his record is good, so a fine is sufficient punishment.

Rubbish their was contact with the head, accidental or knot he made contact with the head, like they said with Rangi any contact to the head is an offense.

Not only did Scruton make contact to the head, he was late, it seems for some clubs high shots are legal, in this bent game we call Rugby League, their is no wonder the sport is on it's knees when we have a two tear system for foul play.

Bring on the next high shoulder charge, and if some one is badly hurt, blame the disciplinary panel for their lack of consistency.

It was late but never a sending off offence, or deserving of a ban. If you think that every tackle where there is contact with the head is deserving of a ban then you will end up with 5 a side. Your bitterness & paranoia does you no good at all. I didn't see the Chase incident so cannot comment on that. I did see his tackle at Fev last season, which has no comparison.
