I’m not saying it’s fine because it’s a hard sport I’m saying it happens in the heat of the moment, nasty things are said that the person saying them won’t really mean. If someone called it me on a rugby pitch it would just mean I’d try to tackle them harder, I wouldn’t want them banned. However if it was used towards a PDRL player by an able bodied player then a whopping great big ban would be suffice.

Nobody is perfect and mistakes are made, certainly in the heat of battle but there still has to be consequences and he’ll get a ban that is IMO warranted if he’s found guilty. It’s just a moronic thing to say, a bit childish and while it probably didn’t make the Leigh player (or whoever he aimed it at) bat an eyelid, it paints him and the game in a bad light.

I can’t get my head around him doing it when clubs know how how easy it is to pick up bans. I’d have him in the firing line if I were Powell or a Wire fan and not the disciplinary. Lads were handed bans for next to nothing last year, with all manner of accidental incidents being punished and it was a joke. This isn’t that, it’s a player being a fool and is so easily avoided. There are dozens of words he can use when getting in to verbals with the opposition. He’ll probably have a few weeks to practice them now.

I was at the game & i personally don't know what was allegedly said but the whole sending off was surreal. Something has so called happened or been said when Ben Currie scored his try but McGuire was only sent off when the ref & teams returned to the centre spot so it is actually unclear what he was sent off for....something said during the try scoring or something said to the ref at the centre spot. McGuire didn't argue at all & left the field quickly.

Weirdly, mcguire actually qualifies to play pdrl! And to be fair to him, he's already been down to help out at some of their training sessions I believe.

Best of it is, I guarantee that every single person in this thread who want him hung drawn and quartered will have used offensive language at some point.

Yeah of course, especially on a sporting field…..

Don’t judge others by your own standards.

7 games for discriminatory language based on disability.

Am I missing something here? The RFL states that a Grade F offence is an eight game plus suspension. https://www.rugby-league.com/match-review-panel

Yeah, probably in your direction.
