If it wasn't deliberate it isn't cheating.

yes it is. They cheated, as proven with the £10,000 fine. If they don't like it they shouldn't have done it. plus, whos saying the player who should of gone off didn't think 'not a chance, I'm staying on to keep us in the lead'

I love the fact that your all against the decision but you are quick enough to down grade the RFL. Sort your heads out people. they played with 14 men, they could of cost there opponents 2 points and that's that.

RFL should be giving fines out like this all the time and maybe they have finally realised the consequences 14 men can cause, this being the reason behind £10,000. Finally on the ball with it. Moving forward from past decisions i.e. Saints. Not backwards!!!!

How do you know they didn't deliberately cheat? can you prove that statement.

Can you prove they did?

A little odd that a water carrier or physio etc... always comes on to get the subbed player off the field but with 3 minutes left in a game with 4 points in it, defending 5 yards off your line. He doesn't go off. RFL had every right behind the punishment.

You all need to stop mocking their decisions and be happy with it. NRL governing body would of made a worse punishment.

Like I said, you need to find yourself a dictionary.

To cheat is to do something dishonest with the intention of gaining an advantage. It was an unintentional mistake and the RFL obviously took that view given the fact they didn't deduct any points. You also say prove that we didn't cheat. It's on a person making an accusation of cheating to prove it rather than the other side proving a negative.

I've never said I'm against the punishment. I agree with it. £10,000 is pretty harsh but I can understand it given when it happened and where on the field it happened. I wouldn't have agreed with a points deduction. I know Canterbury Bulldogs were deducted 2 points in the NRL when they briefly had 14 on the field, but in that game the player coming on was given specific instructions not to go on until his team mate had come off and he ignored it - different circumstances, different punishment. Saints lost their game and the 14 men were on earlier in the game - again, different circumstances, different punishment.

The incident must have happened before Cas' set of 6 started, as teams aren't allowed to make interchanges and water carriers etc aren't allowed on while a team is defending except for physios attending injured players.

£10,000 is not harsh at all. The rules state 13 players at a time. They had 14 on the field and to make it worse it was 3 mins from time on their own line which is a coincidence. Well done RFL for giving a punishment out which proves to teams now that this is a major rule which cant be broke. Some RFL fans are hard to please. If they were given a £100 fine you would all be saying, that's stupid and should be more.

The fine is no punishment at all against Salfraud. Koukash can afford this without blinking. The loss of the two points and awarding them to Cass would have been the only true and just penalty.

Another biased RFL decision - favouring Salfraud yet again.

Favouring Salford again?
Are you taking the ?
When have the RFL ever favoured Salford?

How long have you got?

Let's start with the last two rounds of licencing agreements. Salfraud never had the stadium facilities or financial stability as stated in their applications. They are RFL favourites, instead of denying this why don't you just lie back and enjoy....

Cass, who aren't RFL favourites, were cheated out of two points. You know this, as does the rest of the RFL world but, sadly for our once great sport, nothing can or will be done about it.

That's just for starters.

Ditto Cas and Wakefield you still haven't got the stadium and your both not that well off either. RFL favourites its a clique I tell thee a clique god damn you!!

Oh, I forgot your lack of a fan base despite the promises/fairy tales in your applications.

What's your average home gate this season? And how many of that number are your fans as distinct from visiting fans?

Good grief.
Not sure that you have noticed or not but WE HAVE A NEW STADIUM.
Where's yours?

Your still having a pop over crowds of a team at the bottom of SL let's give it 2 years when Dr Koukash has marketed the club and hopefully a winning team and let's see what the crowds are then?
