Spot on, there are a number of very important elements to this case (as with all cases) that have not appeared in the media. Matters of legal principle etc are one thing on public forums, but discussion of individual cases is always fraught with difficulty because of a lack of [iaccurate [/iinformation.

| Quote Eccleshill Rhino="Eccleshill Rhino"Surely this sends a message out that it is OK to kick a man half senseless -'"
He has been found guilty, given community service, fined, and a suspended prision sentence - any more bother and he's inside with no job and no future. What it says to me is that if you get in an argument in a pub after a few beers and you beat the crap out of a guy afterwards then you will be in serious trouble. I don't know what you call serious trouble, but I would think I was in serious trouble.

I wouldn't bank on it , i am expecting a community service order for the pair <names have been ommited to protect the innocent> of no more than 100 hours, they will be informed as to how lucky they are not to have received a custodial sentence, and told not to do it again
Meanwhile spending 100 hours visiting local schools etc will really teach them a lesson!
Don't SL players do this kind of thing
voluntarily anyway through their clubs ?

Absolutely. I think most folk have reached that conclusion at some time in their lives.
It's wrong, but perfectly understandable if you watch that video, and imagine that it could have been your son who was the victim of this thug's attack.
Personally, I'm happy to let the Magistrates judge what is an apropiate sentence. I'm sure there are many times when they are constrained in what they can do, and are as unhappy with the Tariff as the rest of us.
Cockayne I suspect, will no doubt get his just desserts in the fullness of time.

Being slightly cynical here but its a lot easier for Cas to take that moral stance with someone who is clearly not an integral part of their squad. He's only played once for reserves this season, would be interesting to see their reaction to a more senior player.

Leeds decided the prison sentence handed down was enough punishment whereas cas obviously feel different in terms of the punishment to their player.
Plus i agree with DPT.

| I remain of the opinion that Bailey and Walker were high profile Leeds sportsman, in court far too soon after the Woodgate and Bowyer trial.
I believe that because of that proximity, their punishment was much harsher.
