No way was that a bite - anyone who knows or has followed Jerry's career will 100% know that this is just not in his character. In every game he gets rough treatment but never reacts - he rather just gets up and runs harder next time. If Farrar wants to put his forearm in his face and move it across his mouth then what does he expect to happen - perhaps some contact with teeth was made albeit minimal due to the mouth guard worn but not a bite. Poor show from Farrar if you ask me and will be amazed should any sort of disciplinary action be levied on Jerry.

There’s no doubt Farah gave JM a facial with his forearm. Although against the rules that is generally accepted within the game and happens numerous times a very match.

I suppose the real question is whether Farah pushed his arm into JM’s mouth causing the tooth imprint (which was clearly visible on telly) or whether JM chomped. Unfortunately I think it was the latter, mitigating circumstances or not in RL biting is one of those sins similar to gouging which rightfully gets a long ban. I don’t expect to see him again in the WC.

So, the question now is who replaces him? I assume we can’t call up a reserve winger so it has to be from within the squad. I’d say Percival is the most likely option.

From the footage I saw I think the decision could go either way. Yes Farrah shoves his arm into Jerry's mouth, but then it also looked like Jerry bit him.
I'm reminded of when Elliott Whitehead was done for biting back when he played for Bradford. I think it was a similar set of circumstances in that he just happened to bite down on whatever was in his mouth rather than going looking for someone to bite, he still got done for it though. I think his excuse was that he had recently been concussed and wasn't sure what was happening

Elliott hadn't done any similar before (or since) so I'm not sure that means much re Jerry's past record.

Yes, looking at the replay it looked as though Jerry opened his mouth as Farrah applied more pressure with his arm, I suspect Jerry was struggling to breath at that point as his nasal passages were being covered as well.

I see Bennet is sitting on the fence on this one with no comment, he should have backed his man by saying something positive in his favour.

If he is going to be banned, the least they could do is allow him to get his money worth and properly retaliate against that grub Farah.

He will be a big miss for us if he does cop a ban. Bennett should have taken Eden in the squad, particularly as Percival clearly isn't going to get a look-in at centre.

If people think that Eden is the answer to our winger issues then we are doomed.

Can anyone explain the disciplinary procedure to me. Will Wednesdays meeting judge whether or not he is guilty or will they simply determine the punishment?

Gotta agree there, yes he can finish, but a prop would have scored 25 of his tries last season for us (I reckon I'd have stood a chance and haven't played for over 10 years!). He aint no international winger. My opinion is that one of our best prospects for future will be Manfredi, although that doesn't help us right now if McGilvary gets banned (which I think he will be). We only have Percival, and maybe Ratchford, out there that could even play there. We could be in even more trouble than we already are!

So who is our next best winger? Someone above said Manfredi - he is injured and hasn't played all year.

It would be interesting to see Farahs arm today, I was bit on the bicep in play many years ago. It looked like I had broken it the next day, clear teeth marks and huge bruising that took weeks to go. Should have been penalized well before the 'incident' but again our sheet refs are intent on spoiling games

I said it, and I did say 'future'

Tom Johnstone, who has also been out most of the season injured.

Outside of that, there`s no one that jumps out to me - Especially following the big and powerful route that Bennett seems to be going for.

It was never a bit at all,but his nose is free at all times so there is no problem breathing. If someone bites you then you start swinging at them not hold them at arms length and run to the ref like a girl.
