| Quote: joetwizzy "Leaf added
those quotes imply he's been influencal in throwing games whilst playing for the Dons....that has never happened nor was he on trial for that....he was on trial for betting on Wakefield beating Doncaster by 38 points.....
I am not saying Leaf didnt say these things, but i personally think he was talking about how PLAUSABLE it is to throw a game...if he indeed said it, I have heard no recording of it myself and have to rely on the Sun...you mention 'whats to say he hasnt done it'...well thats just opinion, not fact and certainly wasnt part of the trial
Hope Long is doing well for you

i can only assume it was part of a treble...read my post below on my opinon
just to eleberate slightly and put a different spin on things, he bet on 3 challenge cup games that weekend....were they all single bets? or was in an acca? if it were the latter Leaf may have just thrown it in....and I can only assume it was as the other 2 games were brought into the conclusions of the case. For me that is just naive (bet the whole bet actually came in)...and although wrong and against the rules, nowhere near as cynical as Gleeson and Long who had inside information about Saints playing a weak side and cheating the bookies...Leaf a) didnt cheat in a game...b) didn't cheat the bookies...c) yes broke the law...but his punishment doenst fit

Hope long is doing well for us? This isn't Hull FC v Doncaster. This is right v wrong. I would be saying the same thing if he played for Hull. I think Gleeson should have been banned from the sport.

Quote: Goochie "Weren't Long and Gleesons bans shorter because Long wasn't playing and Gleeson scored in the game, so there was proof they were still trying to win.
18 months seems about fair to me tbh.'"
Quote: Goochie "On June 17, we had our hearing. We thought we'd either get a hefty fine or, more likely, a ban.
Judge Peter Charlesworth ? who tries murderers when he's not on the RFL panel ? fined us both £7,500 plus £2,205 costs. He banned me from playing for three months and Glees for an extra month because he'd played in the game.
We had to pay the fines, court costs, our solicitors' fees and do without our wages for the length of the bans. The bet cost me close to 50 grand. '"
