| I am also very happy about it
Glad the RFL watched the incident and realised Bailey elbowed Radders several times in the head, admittedly Radders may have gone a bit OT but he was punished with a red card (which imo cost us the game), Bailey is one dirty player and deserves all he gets

| It does seem strange that the original tribunal saw no provocation and despite "taking into account" Radford's previous good character and guilty plea, then decided to apply the maximum sentence available for the offence.
Just what was taken into account?
I have said on numerous occasions: the sooner we adopt a system similar to the NRL judiciary, the better for all concerned. At the moment it is still a lottery and little different to the old "smoke-filled room"

| Bloody RFL, in Hull's pocket as usual.
Seriously, a fair outcome as far as I'm concerned. My guess is that Radford was under the impression he was being punched and reacted accordingly.

No we aren't, we are talking about a SL player who punched a fellow player 4 times while he was on the floor, unable to defend himself, we either condone thuggery on the field or we don't lets just make our minds up.

It wasn't thuggery. It was a bit of biff.
Good to see common sense prevail.

Provoked by Bailey's act of thuggish tactics. Clearly the RFL agree, hence the ban removed.
Now, when we're talking about thugs in this next game, I don't think Lee Radford will be the focus, do you?

He connected once.
Probably a good job, given that the one punch landed split Bailey's head like a melon

| Serious question. If Cockayne were to throw a few elbows at Radford, would he be justified in ripping his head off as well?

I like a bit of biff in a game, which is then roundly condemned by the 'intellectual elite' on here, the difference is I like a bit of biff when they stand toe to toe and slug it out, I have never liked the type of thuggery that Radford dished out, the player on the deck did what every player does when being prevented from getting up, they flail about to get free, if the defender cops one in the head, so be it, if he then punches a defenseless opponent FOUR times (which would have been more had he not been pulled away), he deserves to walk IMO.
Lets see what Radford does next time he is prevented from getting up from the tackle, I bet it isn't laying still until the opponent get off him.
