Quote: EHW "The game is going mad.
James Green of Hull KR got a 1 game ban for an off the ball shoulder charge to the head of Travis Burns.
A few weeks later they are giving 2 game bans for touching the ref and tackling someone round the ankles!'"
Touching the ref has always had seriousness attached to it over and above player injuries.
Players sign on and get paid to take risks.
Refs don't.
We've always had a respect for refs from players over that given in football.
We need to keep those standards.
