Surely a ban for life?

That is the worse I have seen. Banned for life is the only punishment.

Disgusting. No wonder our sport is where it is when we have people like that playing.

Has made the Daily Mail online!

He should be done for a assault, the referee is not apart of the game in the same way the players are. Absolutely disgusting that.

Dally. You really are the gift that keeps on giving.

So if a rugby league player did the same to another rugby league player should he not face any disciplinary?

Awful act by the player.

But using it to bemoan where the whole sport is at? Ridiculous. Let me guess, players from all other sports are angels who don't disgrace their sport.

... and Telegraph.

Should be banned for life. Then again, Flower should've been banned for life.

26 players on the pitch, one thumps the ref who lies on the pitch lifeless, leaving 25 others of whom I see one player go to the ref and check him !

You really are boring mate.

Other than the 2-3 opposition players who go straight for the attacker, I think the rest are in shock including his own team mates. How many times have we seen that in RL over the years, none as far as I can remember.

The only time I heard of something similar of any capacity was I remember a mates dad worked in a warehouse in Leigh back in the mid-late 80's and a colleague of his had played for Leigh East/Miners and had recently been banned for life for head-butting the referee.

Despicable action but does the players nationality need to be brought into it?

The title of this thread could have been worded better. Something like - Disgusting. I will probably get called a snowflake or politically correct for this one..

should be in jail...end of.
