| Quote: Cherry.Pie "I noticed it while watching the game and thought he'd be in a bit of trouble for it. I can understand being fired up but he was clearly making unnecessary contact with the ref, and the fact that it was during a coming together between him and Hastings was hardly going to mitigate the circumstances.
Still, it probably means we start the season with Tommy at 7, which was good enough for a Grand Final win and he's defensively stronger than Sammut anyway.'"
To be fair, Tommy is defensively stronger than any other half back in world rugby league.

| Quote: NickyKiss "They do know the rules and it’s silly from Sammut, no doubt about it. My point above was in reference to it being said that contact with the refs seems to be a totally new thing in the last few years when it isn’t. It’s policed tighter now then previously and is more noticeable because we don’t have many of those all in brawls anymore.
As long as we see consistency throughout the year in these decisions then fair enough and everyone will know where they stand.'"
I think it’ll get even more tougher following Benthams retirement through his incident at Widnes,rightly so in my opinion,there’s not enough refs as it is without this sort of nonsense going on they have to have protection and I think with Gamson being in charge they now have it.

With Ganson running the show they'll definitely need it.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

| Refs are supposed to stand on the outside of any incidents and not get between opposing players, I have not seen the incident so can't comment if he was already there but if he tried to get in the middle of the two then he is also at fault

I’m not sure he deliberately got in between them. He gave a penalty and stood on the spot. Sammut came from 4/5 yards away to remonstrate and grabbed him. Ban deserved in my view and as long as 2 games is consistent I can live with it.
