No.. we have a week off.

maybe next week....

Would you accept it?

Serious question, if Leeds manage to beat Saints in a tough game next week, 1st minute of Leeds V Wire, Kallum Watkins, big strong lad, smacks Briers and takes him out of the game, wire lose. Watkins stays on the field enters his EGP and plays in the GF. Would you accept that as sufficient punishment?


BTW, you may think it does, but that photo does Briers no favours at all.

Did Briers take Ablett out of the game?

It shows Ablett saw it coming though.

Errr, there are 2 games this weekend. Player doesn't like fair tackle, takes a swing at supposed offender. No card. Grade A offence. EGP, no ban.

Lovely.

How many of the 68 that are likely to be named this weekend have the EGP available?

The fact Briers swings like a small child is more luck than judgement, he shouldn’t be rewarded for it. If you think it through then the end game of that is that Ablett throws himself to the floor like a sack of spuds, feigns injury, goes off for 10 or 15mins (remembering that an injury from foul play gives a free substitution) and Briers gets a worse punishment because of it. Briers should be punished for what he did, we shouldn’t make it in Ablett’s best interest to make it look worse.

Yes, he looks off guard in the photograph. Do you actually know what blindside is? How else could you grade it, or do you think there should be a special grade for Lee Briers?

it does show that the following statement is wrong on all levels.

[i'victim has both his arms by his side & is turned away from his attacker'.[/i - which was the aim of it. We all know that peoples memory of what actually happened can be skewed by club bias...

Also, he wasn't taken out of the game.... no one was injured.

Lets say Rob Burrow did it to Ben Westwood for example, i would probably be laughing about it.

except it doesnt.

ok... the RFL, the referee and the photographic evidence are all wrong... you're right.

This evidence cannot be so.
It's a conspiracy.
It's an anti-Leeds Rhinos agenda.
It's gotta be a PaintShop Pro job surely?

None of the referee, the RFL or the photographic evidence agree with you. Im not sure why you have made that up.

has anyone fallen for this bait yet? you have pretty much said the same thing 3 or 4 times on this thread and i cant see many responses.

So Ablett should have faked injury and taken the free substitution then?
