Aye I guess its stick it up yer jumper time when it comes to money now

Because - by and large - they're tools who would much rather have a couple of hours news laid on a plate for them by Red Hall every week rather than having to go out and find it themselves.

The likes of Nosey Parker and Andy Wilson couldn't write a decent limerick on a bog wall unless someone gave them the words, let alone a column in the press.

Would you care to point out to me this inconsistency in punishments and how it contradicts with your beloved NRL system? Both systems are reliant on a group of individuals deciding what grade an offence is, establishing guilt then setting down the punishment within the ranges allowed for that grade of offence.

It's pretty much how the magistrates system works, so if it's good enough for criminal law it's good enough for me thanks.

How is it MY beloved NRL sysytem?????
As for your digs at parker and wilson i couldn't give sh#t about either of them but the likes of dave hadfield and martyn sadler i respect.
As for the proof of inconsistency just look at any of the many instances where bans have been dished out then look at the same offences when play-offs,internationals or vital CC c games are to be played!
Again we'll have to agree to disagree the system is flawed and inconsistent IMHO and the summary of the gilmour/lee smith highlighted it perfectly.

[i'Player intentionally has a jab at the Wakefield player and as such is guilty of misconduct; however the Panel are giving him the benefit of the doubt that contact with the eye is accidental and as such consider that it is appropriate to deal with this matter by way of a caution.'[/i

Typically weak action by the RFL.

Feel sorry for Saints week?

Surely contradictory no?

Presumably the jab was deliberate but the target was unspecified.

Perhaps in future Cunningham should nominate (like in snooker) which facial feature he is going to hit to make it clearer for the RFL judiciary to rule on.

Roby is injured. Something to do with it?

Does anyone remember Stevo bingo? If so does anyone have a link to it? Anyone not going to the game on Friday, should have a go at it!

That makes exactly zero sense.

I can hear the rant coming on Boots 'n All...."THUGBY LEAGUE!!!!"

Is it my perception or is Burger Boy Cunningham getting more violent in his old age? He lost it after the Bailey "incident" as well and tried to take Sinfields head off for no reason.

Yes, I helped create it.
