What, not even biting, or gouging, punching an unconcious player, or foul play that results in serious/career ending injury ?

I'd rather be spat at by England, than have big Eorl punch me in the face a few times.

Really? What if Chris Hill had done it?

I would say that purposely going in to injure someone is worse. But it's a ing disgusting act indeed.

On this one I'm not d that he's a Wire, get him banned!

Be happy if he gets banned for the season for that IF found guilty. No excuses.

It's a shame that two sets of great fans who I actually think get on like a house on fire and have friendly rivalry and respect for each other have to watch there players scrap it out in a bad fashion.
As for England I hope he gets what he deserves. A big ban for a nasty act... If he is proven guilty.
It may be a case of spraying it, not saying it.
Time will tell but I hope the onfield hatred which could be boiling up for the future doesn't affect our fans relationship with each other.

The same.

They should just give him a slap on the wrist... mitigating circumstances with it being Danny Brough.

That's exactly what I said, unfortunately no one agreed with me.
I'd rather be spat at than punched in the face TBH.

I think people think that punching is "honest" whilst spitting is somehow "underhand" and beyond the pale.

Did he actually do it? I have a hard time believing people who potentially sitting 60 metres away... where did it take place on the pitch?

I wouldn't expect this of him, he's always been quite placid to me, head down and get on with the game. Must have been very tense and angsty out there.

Having had a young relative die from Meningitis after being spat at in school, I would say I would rather be punched than spat at.

Deserves the maximum ban.

I don't think Eorl Crabtree has ever punched anybody. If he did it must have taken something bad for him to react in such a way! Let's be honest Chris Bridge isn't shy when it comes to the biff.

I'm surprised we haven't both got a few players up in front of the panel.

With regards to England he has let himself down big style. Spitting is the lowest of the low. With him being a prop and doing it to a HB makes it even more embarrassing. Dirty get deserves the full 8!

Disagree with this, I'm a fan but I always get the feeling he could overstep the mark at any minute. I would've hoped spitting was above him (and in fact all of our players) though. Getting rid over this is perhaps a bit harsh, we all make mistakes. I'm sure if he ends up sitting on the sidelines for eight games because of this he will get a fitting punishment (fine or whatever) from whoever it is in charge of the team at the moment.

I too can`t believe that many other players from BOTH teams were not cited after watching yesterday`s game.

Crabtree & Bridge were trading punches in an all-out bar room brawl. Other Huddersfield players then joined in on Crabtree`s behalf, meaning that Bridge was taking on 3 or 4 Huddersfield players at the same time with some major blows dished-out & received.

How Bentham then only sin-binned England & Brough defies any logic.

Bridge, Crabtree & the other Huddersfield players in the initial boxing bout should have all been Red Carded.

As long as it doesn't bring any negative publicity on the game like the Ben Flower incident and it is dealt with by the rfl and the club. In the proper manner like it should be weather it's a 4 game ban or an 8 game ban. Then it will be yesterday's news before no time.
