As good a game Acton had on Thursday, it was a blatant and completely unnecessary trip right at the very end of the match. In fact I think the clock had struck 80 mins.

That is yet another 2 games he will be suspended for.

I thought the player connected of his knee?

Irrespective, the intent was there and still proves that his petulance has not gone away !

Was stupid, and cant really argue with the charge. But how is it graded? Can you trip people up with differing levels of severity?

Ya, You get a higher grade if you play for Leyth.

Chase Widnes grade A charge for tripping no EGP.A trip is a trip how come the different charges

Jamie can control it himself and take the disciplinary out of the equation if he chooses to. However, I expect him to plead guilty.

He is appearing before the disciplinary committee now all to often. They must be sick at the sight of him.

Jamie had a cracker of a game, shame his stupidity at the end of the game overshadows his performance

Bongser holds his hands up and wholeheartedly admits his ignorance. But he has a brace of questions.

A) if there are different grades of trips, are there pre-published criteria to explain these seeming anomalies or does Red Hall communicate the reasons after the judgement? Lots of players in many sports commit professional fouls but it would be nice to know how much that foul was likely to affect your club.

B) are players for French clubs judged at Red Hall or at Moulin Rouge (or whatever the equivalent is)? If the latter, then goodness only knows how light the penalties for a certain Canadian club might be if they are granted the same privileges.

That must class as the most stupid time ever to incur the wrath of the referee and then Disciplinary committee - AFTER the hooter!

Of course, 'inconsistency' could come into play again. I may be wrong, but wasn't a Wigan player penalised for tripping, in the first half - on the East side, near to the North Stand? If so, he wasn't cited - along with his sixteen team mates!

Rangi Chase's punishment (if found guilty) is NFA to 1 match. (I know where my money would be!

For once and maybe the only only time, I agree with the Sky pundits, discipline will be the only thing that holds Leigh back - they have proved that they have the skills, and 99% of the Wigan game they also proved they have the maturity and discipline. So, I'm sure Jamie doesn't need telling by anyone, apart from his coach, that it was a regretful action, the positive from the game is the continued improvement in that department.

It's exciting to watch and if they can keep that mindset, the other teams have a lot more to deal with in the skills area than any silly idea that they can rough us up and get the indiscipline showing it's ugly head.

Our indiscipline is usually technical offences! Jaime Acton is rarely punished by the Referee its usually the Review Panel! I've never even heard an opponent say 'ouch' when Jaimie has transgressed!
Was the 'offence' against Wigan a trip or, an obstruction ? if it was a Trip then Hicks should have issued a red?
