The point is there is a brotherhood rule amongst players that you look after your own when someone is injured , that's why you see opposite players roll the injured player into the recovery position , that's how you get respect in the game .a good friend of mine was left paralysed by a similar incident , a good few years ago . Acton will not get the respect of other players with actions like that

Trouble is, he has 'form', and that counts against him. (unlike some of the other SL players who continually get 'NFA' and therefore will never have 'form'! )

The ridiculous thing about Acton is that so many of his misdemeanours are for 'silly' offences, rather than outright violent ones!

I don't think the adjournments will do Leigh any favours no matter what the defence of his actions the RFL will look to throw the book at him and he will probably get 10 matches (less the two hes already missed) I remember Timmy once appealing a big ban and getting an extra game !

The RFL will have two objectives in mind when they finally hear his case

A) They take the welfare of players extremely seriously in a tough collision sport

B) It is the pratt Acton back before us again for the 10th time in 18 months, unable to learn any valuable lessons.
