Teams are guaranteed 2-3 penalties a game from him, when things go against him he throws his toys out of the pram and becomes petulant.

As a player he's going backwards.

He deserves a ban. You don't get much foul play from Farrell so I'm not going to criticise him too much. He's not easily rattled but when he's frustrated he lets it show far too much. EGP and 1 match which he can have no complaints about.

On the plus side, we've got quite a few players who are returning from injury and others who are showing good form. Assuming Farrell is an immediate pick along with Tomkins and Bateman, we've got Isa, Burke and Gregson fighting it out for a place on the bench, so Farrell's ban might ease a selection headache slightly.

I don't dispute the fact he is a good player and is a great "numbers" player for meters, carries and tackles.

I actually don't see too much nasty stuff in his play with the exception of the idiotic flop against Wire.

I also don't mind that he is prone to giving away a penalty or 2 most good forwards do especially playing the role he is at his size.

My issue is the timing of his penalties. He comes up with some stupid penalties at key moments in games often late in the tackle count or when we are putting the pressure on the opposition in defence close to their line often swinging the momentum back in the oppositions favour.

i think, after seeing you trolling (very badly) on all forums, that you are probably the thickest person on RL fans.

I think we can put this issue to bed now though. I agree with most on this, i think it was deliberate and out of order and thought he deserved a ban for it which he is now getting so justice is done. I do find it funny though that other clubs can comment and call it the worst incident ever in RL as if their clubs' players have never sh*t housed before. I could name an incident from the last couple of years from every single side in the league and if i can't remember any from the top of my head a bit of research would put pay to that.

Farrell deserved a ban he is getting one, Warrington deserved the win and deserve to be top which they did and are and we should all move on and look forward to the next meeting in which i am pretty sure there will be an incident we can all whinge about, probably have something to do with Ashton Sims ha ha

Deserved punishment. He doesn't need to do that kind of rubbish. Needs to learn his lesson.
