I think the concept of a ban matching the injury sounds like a great idea but impossible to enforce fairly.

Everyone agrees (I think) that what the RFL lack is constancy. Simple solution in my view is make the refs use the jeffin cards! Red and going down a player for the rest of the game is worse than 2 weeks off and should be used. Both Leeds with Ferres and Wolves with Westwood gained an advantage through foul play. No amount of bans can change that in the eyes of Wigan and Leeds respectively, simple solution use the red and use the vid ref if need be to sort it.

I would have give him 10 because it was a swinging arm, but it did bounce of the ball so red was very harsh imo, maybe all the refs are on edge after Ferres and Westwood incidents

Thaler IMO got it just as wrong as Child did the previous week.

What the game needs is neither an under or over reaction - it needs to get these decisions correct.

My first reaction was 'that's a really bad one red card', it looked awful and reckless full speed so can't blame the ref,Only on the slow mo replay did you see different. I believe the video ref should be used. That would have taken less than one minute to sort out. Obviously, at a non televised game this would not be possible and that would still have been red today were that the case but i'm a firm believer in if you have the technology then use it.

Spot on Biff.
Unfortunately for Saints and what has gone on previously Amor got a red when ten minutes would have been the right call.

After what happened last week I expected there might be one somewhere this week and I'm not surprised it involved Thaler - always had a trigger finger IMO. The referee wasn't in a great position to begin with starting with his back to the incident looking over his shoulder while retreating, possibly missed the initial impact on the ball but seeing the (indirect) contact with the head. It looked like Tommy Lee got more of Liam Harrison than Kyle Amor did.

Expect St Helens to fight this one but still lose as the judiciary back it's official.
