We surely have nothing to lose by appealing. Even reducing the deduction to 4 points would make a huge difference. An even if it were increased due to the appeal were already joint bottom so no worse off.

...or any addition could be applied in the middle eights comp, should they not now escape the bottom 4. The RFL went ahead and changed the league structures without thinking about if all its bye laws / rules were now fit for purpose. The other one they missed was the signing deadline.

Shame you couldn't beat Wakey then you'd have been 4 wins better than them

I think that shows how points deductions have been increasing over time.

The potential sanctions have increased but in the interest of things like fairness & consistency apart from fielding an extra man for 6 tackles the last 4 on the list above are for going into administration (often as a result small businesses don't get paid) and before that Wigan & Bradford were in breach not once but twice.
