Well quoted, Mcguire stayed on the field and scored an importnat try if I am not mistaken, cheating in anyones book.
Maybe it's the Gary Hetherington book of definitions circulating in Leeds that is confusing them!!

I suppose you think Ryan Bailey is a clean player in Leeds, dear me!!
McGuire stiff armed a player, stayed on the pitch and scored an important try.
Mcllorum got sent off + a three game ban for a 'similar' incident.
No surprise Mr Thaler was refereeing on Friday and we all know the 'boo boo' (Stevo's words) he made in the CC semi.
I think your tryng to excuse foul play on the pitch as 'not' cheating...

| Nobody is excusing what McGuire did it was a poor challenge just adding a little context to the situation.
It wasn't cheating in any sense.

Surely, if you are penalized by the official, you have transgressed the rules... therefore you are cheating?

Looking at it in black and white terms then yes you can however there needs to be an element of common sense in sport.
If McGuire gets banned then fair enough if not the same.

Rules are normally written in black and white, or is it different for Leeds?... I'm trying to understand what you are trying to say...

They are however they are interpreted is why context is required. By your logic every player in super league is a cheat.

Leeds gibberish , stop skirting around the issue. Mcguire is as guilty as puppy sitting next to a pile of poo. He has cheated, foul play, transgressed the rules.
Which ever way you try to dress it up he cheated, the only difference in both tackles is that Anderson had the ball, both players in possession (Or not in Laffranchis case) got a stiff arm around the chops. Mcllorum got three games and 'sent off', if Mcguire doesn't get a least two games then the RFL will lose a lot of credability. He stayed on and scored a try, with Mr Thaler in charge...again!!!
It must be a Leeds thing, McDermott even tried to back McGuire up at the Club Call today "he is not that sort of player..he does'nt go on the field to do that sort of thing...the bloke slipped" do me a favour, McGuire is constantly niggling opposition then stands out the back as it erupts.

No jibberish, he was just defending his player. Do you complain when wane does that or is that different. You seem unable to distinguish between incidents.

No only Leeds ones.
As Brian Clough said to the Leeds United team you won nothing fair.
