Don't worry about avoiding temptation.
As you grow older, it will avoid you!

| Quote: Keith Swiftcorn "Without the benefit or hindrance of Sky's coverage and opinion, I've only seen the incident at the game itself followed by a brief replay on the big screen and I thought it looked bad both times. I don't think you should be defending the action just because it's a Leeds player and just because it's Cross.'"
I was stating my opinion in defence of Cross which was backed up by the disciplinary panel. Whereas your opinion on almost everything about Leeds is negative and has been proven wrong on this occassion. |

Your unquestioning deference towards the judgements of the inconsistent RFL disciplinary panel when it suits your agenda is noted. |

And your refusal to accept an independant judgement when it suits your agenda is also noted. |

Independ [sizee[/sizent.
They are entitled to their opinion which doesn't correspond with mine or quite a few others on this board.
It's refreshing to see some put aside club loyalties (agenda) and see the incident for what it was.
Fortunately, it didn't cost Leeds this time... the penalty or the potential ban... next time might be different and Cross needs to cut out leading with the forearm and/or elbow. |

Joel Tomkins received a sending off and a two match ban for a not too dissimilar action in the Wigan V Hull fixture earlier this season.
www.therfl.co.uk/disciplinary/item?2403
Unlike the RFL's Disciplinary Panel I'll continue to take a consistent view with regards to the two incidents. Neither incident (viewed and treated in isolation) deserved more than an on field warning and a penalty.
Here's my observation though, had Silverwood done as Ganson did and sent the offender off then I'd be fairly confident that decision would have been backed up by the disciplinary panel by way of a guilty verdict and quite possibly a ban. |

The RFL Disciplinary Panel, inconsistent with their decision making? Surely not!?

| Quote: G1 "Why? He saw the incident, same as the RFL judiciary. He's entitled to an opinion. The RFL judiciary may be final word when it comes to any sanctions but their interpretation of on field events over the years has often been somewhat at odds with reality, IMO.'"
"Should now get a ban."
After the RFL had already made their decision on the matter public knowledge, meaning the player wasn't going to get a ban.
Everyone's entitled to an opinion - bit of research behind them wouldn't go amiss though. |

Note forearm not elbow.
It was my reaction at the time |

So your quibble was simply about use of the future tense instead of past?
If I said "he should have got a ban" would that be OK? I don't feel that it materially alters the point I was making. |

Mine too. I'm just not convinced smashing somebody in the face with your forearm is OK either. Less damaging, obviously, but still capable of damaging faces. |

I have an impression (based on memory rather than stats) that his indiscipline causes too many problems for him to be considered to be getting the job done. I may be wrong though. I'm also not sure that conceding penalties while in possession doesn't count as "nonsense" to be honest.
As I say, facts and figures may show that I'm mistaken. |

Leeds haven't faced any packs of late. |
