was a far more dangerous kick by senior

Which was more petulant?


Think you find the answer is the one that didnt get the fine

Maybe so, but it was accidental. Allowing Joel Tomkins to go round kicking people and getting off scot free is the wrong message to be sending out IMO.

it was about as much accidental than mcguire pulling carmont back

I agree.

There was nothing in the Senior kick at all. He didn't aim at his head and he didn't mean to kick him. It was careless, and a penalty was the right call.

For Danny B to get a ban for that is a disgrace. Not even the worst challenge in the match, which despite the intensity was relatively clean. The RFL certainly like to make the game a laughing stock with these irrational decisions.

Have we got a 2nd team fixture this weekend? Back 'int day' I'm sure players could use their ban in these games.

You can argue about what kicks deserve to be punished and what dont but what it all comes down to is the fact that the RFL and its referees are inconsistent.

Personally I thought Senior was unlucky, it wasn't a deliberate kick at an opponent but he did kick out which is dangerous. As for Tomkins, well the guy has a few screws missing but you cant get away with what he did.

Then onto Buderus we go. Was his offence worse than Radfords for example? I suspect Buderus wont get his ban overturned which suggests that the RFL do think a dangerous trip/throw is worse than standing over a downed man and reigning punches onto his head.

The true offenders in all this are the RFL and their lack on consistency or anything that resemble Kahoonas.

The Buderus ban is a joke. End of.

Clumsy, player turned over. No malice, no damage done. Why the OTT reaction.

Leeds have to take it to appeal. There were worse incidents that were let off with a penalty, so I don't see why the Buderus tackle should be regarded in a different league.

Can you give us that in English??

I'm guessing you are a Cas fan?

McGoldrick has been to Red Hall 4 times this year for kicking out, how many times has he been banned for it?

Well you'd have to hope that his appeal board would have a more favourable composition...



I believe the panel consists of 3 people(?)

I would be surprised if it's not overturned.

...... seriously?! You've got to be kidding me!

The whole thing is just laughable.

Wouldn't be surprised if on appeal the panel is made up of Phil and Colin Clarke alongside Tomkins' mum and dad.

Thats article sums everything up.
