I've not read that, but that's pretty unbelievable if he has.

Can't quite work out if it's more unbelievable stupidity or just sheer hypocrisy.

He's unlikely to publically admit anything prior to being charged, despite compelling evidence otherwise.

The replay shows Westwood was looking right at Green when he punched him, can't really believe there wasn't intent

You can find the stupid comments from Ben 'the brain' Westwood here... www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/rugby- ... n-ban-fear His cowardly act has no place in this game. It's not as if Green was in a position to give him a slap back.

So I assume by your comment not respecting Wire anymore because of this cheap shot mate, you decipher "good rugby" as playing within the spirit of the game and not expansive attacking type play?

If that's that case, you are aware that you have Michael McIlorum in you team. A man who is no stranger to the art of the cheap shot.

However, if you mean "good rugby" as playing expansive attacking type of play, then what does not respecting them have to do with one of Wire's players lashing out?

As for the punch itself, I've had it described to me in great detail and it sounds like he should have been sent off.

EDIT: I've just seen it on Sky Sports News and yeah, he should have gone.

Westwood is a joke. He should just not comment until after the hearing and accept whatever punishment comes his way after.

But to come out and try and deny it when everyone can see on the replays.......the RFL should throw the book at him.

If throwing the book means a Grade B charge with possible 2 game ban then that's what they've done ...,,,

How is wetswoods not a grade d-f?

From the RFL website:

[uWhen tackling or attempting to tackle makes contact with head or neck of an opponent[/u

[iA-B Careless - flat hand off balance
A-B Careless -ball carrier dips
A-B Careless - stepped and reaching
A-B Careless - initial contact with ball or chest
A-B Careless - second tackler in - wrapping tackle up
Reckless
B-C Reckless - tackler in control
B-C Reckless - tried to tackle but reckless about outcome
Intentional
[uD-F Intentional - clenched fist - intent to make contact with head[/u[/i

Ridiculous that it is a B

It just shows our game is run by clueless idiots and needs overhauling, I applaud (if true) the SL chairman who are planning to stand up to the RFL. It shouldn't matter there is a World Cup round the corner, If this was a Gareth Hock or Ryan Bailey they would be both looking at 4-5 games IMO. I'm just glad justice was done in the end with a losers medal for him.

It's an absolute disgrace and shows the RFL for the spineless, gutless morons that they are.

The entire disciplinary is joke.

The fact that friendlies count for bans.
The fact that the ban doesn't count for the competition it occured in.........i wonder why, with a world cup round the corner westwood hasn't received a grade d-f, which by their own guidelines, it clearly is?

I wonder
