Does this condone a red card???????????????????????????????????

Not according to Mr (aptly named) Hicks who was contacted by an irate fan

The referees reply is below:

my view was that contact was not direct to head, am sure they'll look in the morning and see if it was straight to jaw

Result: Dixon broken Jaw out for ????????

McHoodlum: 3 matches

And the RFl wonder why fans despair of match day officials

Would that be his good eye or his glass eye because for Roby to miss that haymaker it must be his glass eye.

And anyone who's played the game knows that's a ridiculous way to police that kind of incident, if a player falls or ducks into a challenge that would otherwise have been perfectly legal and in no way an attempt at being high then you're penalising a totally innocent defender and in some cases putting them on report.

While I am pleased that Jon Wilkin got a 2 match ban, although he probably deserved more, I do find it ridiculous that it is other Super League teams which will benefit from his suspension and not Wakefield. At the end of the day the on report call was an easy cop out for Roby when Wilkin clearly should have been red carded. Wakefield would then have played 75 minutes against 12 men and the result could have been a lot different! Referees need to have the guts to make big calls against the big teams!

Wilkin was not put on report and we didn't even get a penalty. He was cited following the match review panel seeing it on video

Roby
