dependent on the Sezer it’s going to be a very tough squad for us:

Myler; Briscoe Sutcliffe Hardaker Tindall; Austin Sezer; Oledzki O’Connor Prior; Bentley Martin; Smith.
Leeming Gannon Tetevano Thompson
/ Donaldson / Walters / Mustapha / Dwyer

Or

Myler; Briscoe Sutcliffe Hardaker Tindall; Austin Leeming; Oledzki O’Connor Prior; Bentley Martin; Smith.
Dwyer Gannon Tetevano Thompson
/ Donaldson / Walters / Mustapha / Johnson

It doesn’t’clearly’ show anything

Yes his arms are wrapped round the player but his shoulder hiys his head IMO

Some bias Saints fans here. That's been a ban all season.

The same bias that’s saying Knowles is a ban all day long? And there’s absolutely no bias from Leeds fans wanting Welsby banned?

Is my expectation for next week

I don’t ‘want’ welsby banned, i want consistency from the MRP. Fusitua got a ban for s very similar tackle not do long back.

On Knowles, that’s just cut and dried, youd look daft defending that.

I don't think it was malicious or had intent but I do think there was some contact with the head.
This year that would merit a ban, however silly.
That said the occasional one like Kasianos that got nothing so it's pretty much a 50/50.

I see woolf is defending Knowles saying it shouldn’t be a ban - absolute nonsense

We have been wanting consistency all year. But until anyone can present any evidence there was actually head contact (I have gone frame by frame on what’s on line and nothing looks like head contact to me) then it is consistent that there’s no ban. As I say, you can’t ban Welsby because the player got up with a bloody nose, that’s not evidence on its own (circumstantial as the courts would say)

Think u need to watch it again.

Yet I see his shoulder hit his head, if the MRP also see it it should be a ban.

How's it not evidence? How did he get it then, by picking his nose?! He didn't have it before the tackle. As already said fusitua got done for a similar one

Lets just get on with it and play the game. Knowles should be banned and if it is appealed it should be deemed as frivolous and extended. If that does not happen demonstrates a definate bias to players in England squad (not saints).
Everything else benefit of the doubt and move on.

What about the Matty Lees collision on Sio. What was the penalty for? Looked like knees to the head but not sure what he penalised. If it was for knees to the head then Dangerous contact and a ban / should also have been a yellow.

Difference with Fusitua's was that the impact came after the ball had gone. He actually ducked getting banned for a couple of very similar tackles earlier in the season. The part of me that is Leeds at all costs says - yes ban Welsby! That's the terrible thing about the MRP this season. We fans aren't talking about the great game in the offing, we are talking about which players should be prevented from playing in it. It's Cullen and co that need the red card.

He would say that wouldn’t he, obviously the Saints coach doesn’t want Saints players to be banned
