Following Friday's little fracas which, according to Marshy1, was disgraceful, and no doubt according to the commentary team was "not what we want to see" (they're all wrong: it was thoroughly enjoyable), Jacob Emmitt has been charged with Grade B punching, Lee Jewitt with Grade A punching and Darrell Griffin with Grade C punching.

Jewitt's is most disappointing. He should be giving us at least a grade B, and I fear he's letting his standards drop.

Perhaps the club will appeal to get Jewitt's upgraded to a B. Then we'll end up having points deducted.

As it stands, we'll probably be without Emmitt, Griffin and Gleeson (although there's no news yet) for the August 9th "start of a new era" day.

Only A and B grade charges for the Catalans players involved. Guess that means we won!

Griffin seriously needs to work on his punch technique.Thought his timing was a little off as well but these are all issues that can be sorted out with a good session at Hattons Gym.
Jewitt needs to stop leading with his face although he does seem to have good punch resistance.Get a bit more head and waist movement going and he will take far less shots.Also bend your legs a little,really sit down on your punches and you will see your Knockout % rise dramatically.
All in all not a bad effort but not in the SBW class who will undoubtedly give them a few pointers next year.

If all three are banned by the disciplinary, who do we bring in for the Huddersfield, Leeds and possibly Hull FC games?

Stock, Aitken and Waterman.

Would imagine James/Neal/Walne/Mauro would be the props? Although it would be good to see Tyson from the u20s get a game.

I think it was all part of a bigger plan to get SBW interested.

1 each for Jewitt & Emmit also

We'll need to issue players with pillows to fight with next.

Its a mans game for Gods sake, they're ruining the game for me, no shoulder charge and no biff.

What next? Tick and pass with all players made to wear helmets and American football pads. Do they not realise it's one of the reasons that some people go to watch a match for? Massive clamp down on anything clumsy around the shoulder and crowds are down by 20%, any coincidence? Gum shield manufacturers will be going out of business.

Can't wait for next years rule changes:

1. Banning tackles from behind like football.
2. Having to keep one foot on the ground when fielding a high ball to prevent players going over on their ankles.

that was a handbags, unlike what happen over there with that thug
the rugby league have again shown it will bent over backwards to the French, but when it comes to Salford if we appeal we will our two points taken off us again
