| As i say, that sounds almost identical to the case with Ryan Bailey, where Silverwood got himself in the defensive line (and frankly it was embarrasing for him to do so from a Warrington penalty where he controlled the restart) collided with Bailey, did nothing at the time and Bailey got a 3match ban for unnecessary and avoidable contact with the referee.
Whilst I agreed in that case that the contact was minimal, the referee shouldn’t have got himself in that position and it was all a bit of storm in a teacup, at least they are being consistent.

| Exactly. "The contact was unnecessary and avoidable." That's the finding, deal with it.

| If he's fit and playing well he's still a class player, we don't have that many of those to choose from so to say it's the end of the road for him at test level is a bit ridiculous to me.

So, this ruling is basically saying that if a referee gets himself badly positioned in the defensive line then a player should not try to tackle the opponent in case he makes contact with the referee in the process. Fair enough.

No. It isn't saying that, at all.

He didn't threaten the ref, didn't throw him to the floor or use any aggressive actions towards him. The ref himself wasn't bothered and hock gets four games. It's rugby league for gods sake, get a grip and let it go.
If sinfield/tomkins/wellins got four games for the same thing there would be so many people defending the player however because hocks got this passed which admitadly he has, people say "same old same old"
