| This is the moment to sort out the amateur game once and for all and eradicate the fighting etc mentality. If it needs every player to have a unique identifying number for control purposes then make it compulsory to have a passport and use that number. The growth or even grassroots survival of the game is at stake and needs must even if 'cost' might be an excuse given not to do this. Any better ideas?

| I know a few people who's kids play rugby union instead of league.
A few reasons why, they play at there own grounds with nice club houses, clean changing rooms and a bar that isn't full of local idiots.
These people would much rather have there kids play league than union but in my experience of my son playing from 8s to 16s I saw some horrendous incidents with kids all in brawls and parents encouraging this and even carrying it on after the final whistle.
League needs to try to attract middle class supporters because the etticate in union is far better than league.
We have a great sport but unfortunately the people in charge see it as there baby and don't listen to ideas from people who seem to have more idea than they do.

| A similar incident happened, oh about 20 years ago in the amateur rugby union game. Can't for the life of me remember the name but I'm sure they were based near Manchester and there was no messing around and no second chances. The club was kicked out of the league and the players involved were handed sine die bans

I think this is very common. Just look at the amount of amateur union clubs, with full junior sections in West Yorkshire. Yet Yorkshire Carnegie struggle to get one man and his dog to attend their games.

i think you are wrong, just beacause of a few bad eggs clubs like Fryston, queens the old chequerfield club in pontefract, does not mean the whole amateur game is awash with violence. just in the Castleford area, there is Panthers, Loch lane Fev lions, Rockware. these clubs run junior setups right up to open age and have there own club house and facilities superior to most union clubs. the last i looked Fryston etr don't have any sort of junior set up. there just a team made up of cast offs and thugs from better local teams who don't want them, and some crap ex pros's who think there the local hard nuts.

So Steve Scott is looking at a minimum 16 game ban if he gets found guilty on those 2 charges. I have a feeling it’ll be nearer a year IMO.

| I'm sort of interested how the offence of "Running in and Punching" can be classified over several different categories, each with a significantly different penalty?
Shouldn't there just be one category with the range of punishment varied to match the severity?
Otherwise it's not really tackling the issue - e.g. well I'll run in a punch a bit and I might get a Cat B, whilst if I run in & welly someone then I might get a Cat F. Err, no, just don't run in & punch at all!

| I think it maybe depends where you're coming from too. Like if your in the vicinity of the scuffle I don't think the punishment is as bad as say running from the other side of the pitch to get involved.
Hope that Scott gets a life-time ban. He was the one kneeing, kicking and bragging about it on social media. The one with neanderthal-esce grasp of the English language!

| Category F is minimum 8 games or time period. Our lovely Mr Scott has managed to get separate ones for punching & kicking. Hopefully this is a mechanism to remove him from the game forever.
I would also assume the severity of the offence reflects the grading as running in and one punch is not equivalent to a sustained attack.

The RFL split it in to 2 categories.
Running in and Punching (B-D grade)
Running in and Punching somebody off guard (E-F grade)
3 categories for the Kicking offence as well.
Light Contact (A-B)
Full Contact (C-D)
Full Contact violent and aggressive (E-F)
This charge is odd because he's been charged with Kicking but he's used his knees and there's separate category for Knee strikes.

| Yes I've got that, its just that some of the problem is the whole "running in" thing, so of they want to eradicate that then even the percieved lower grade actions should perhaps be addressed more seriously to discourage players from joining in.

Same Fryston lads at it again in the taxi queue giving a certain stand off a hiding last weekend too, one particularly notorious local lad who might just have made it right to the very top of the game had he not been an absolute lunatic.

They have a few in that team that were on the fringes of the professional game. Are we talking of the one who was at Rochdale for a few seasons?, or is it someone who got his marching orders in the infamous Sharlston v Fryston YouTube vid?
