In the 12 team Championship this season there have been 82 players referred to the Disciplinary Committee.
Of these, 29 of these have been Leigh players, leaving 53 non-Leigh players.
On closer inspection, of these 53 incidents involving other teams, 24 of them were actually in games against Leigh.
So of the 82 players sighted to the RFL, 35% of these are Leigh players and 63% of incidents referred were games involving Leigh.
Make of these figures what you will.
(Not including this weeks)'"
Currently top of the league.
Scored more conceded less
Only championship team in the cup
Make of these figures what you will.

Don't think anyone has been referred for biting, in any of our games, 'g.g.'

| Quote: HXSparky "We still have a number of players, like most teams, who like to play the "hard man", and tbh, every team needs them. Where that boils over into outright confrontation and/or fighting, it's clearly got out of hand.
Leigh do seem to have more than their fair share of these players, and as such it does seem inevitable that the confrontations will be more frequent. Unfortunately, some of these grudges do seem to get carried forward to future encounters.
Paul Rowley was a darn fine player for Fax (and Leigh), but my disappointment is the he does seem to condone this sort of play, and for all the brilliant attacking ability of the team, doesn't want to focus on this and want to cut out the biff.
My opinion, shoot me down in flames, but you have more than enough fire-power to blow away most teams without the strong-arm tactics.
All the very best in sport on Saturday. Do the Championship proud!!'"
I do sort of agree with you. Thing is though if a game starts getting dirty players need protection and if the ref doesn't give it it falls to your hard men, which is why as you say every team needs them. Don't think Rowley condones it as a style of play more excuses it as players looking after each other. True you can focus on the game and get on with it, like we did on Sunday and we did blow Sheffield away, we also had a key player stretchered off the pitch and taken to hospital though. Rowley definitely does want to focus on the attacking ability but when you've got a 5m offside and players slowing the tackle right down it makes it difficult to play like that, can tell it frustrates him from his interviews.
Thanks, glad to see some of that old Championship comradery is still going.

You got me, I didnt check I were just going on memory and had forgot about Murrell's 'late' tackle on Moore although the other 2(again I thought there was only 1) I didnt include with them not been part of the regular season.

Strangely, we only had one referred in the pre-season games, against Keighley. (obviously, another case of a Yorkie side, attempting to wind up our saintly players! )

| I'm really glad this thread wasn't titled "Indiscipline at Yorkshire clubs ". That would have been a step too far. Have there been any major problems with discipline in matches between Yorkshire clubs or were all the matches just Hard but Fair...... as is the Yorkshire way.

| I love this thread had me in hysterics (as have the ones on other forums).
What is RL about if not a bit aggression along with a whole raft of skill? Can you imagine the likes of Alex Murphy, Charlie Stone and Karl Harrison not playing without aggression and maybe a little niggle?

Strange thing about it was that Harrison wasnt niggly as a player but the guy playing hooker next to him was..................
That said still my favourite player to pull on the Fax shirt.

Harrison was just as dirty as alot of players at that time,because other professional players that played when Harrison played didnt winge about other teams being dirty like one or two of players on twitter these days they just played the game hard and got on with it,bloody hell can you imagine Brenden Hill playing in todays game the way players cry about a team playing dirty ha ha

Happen not, but he's done his fair share of niggling and moaning since he took up coaching!
