Got a one game ban for Grade B dangerous contact.

Someone else’s gain

And some people posting believe this behaviour is all part of the game ????

Is this a ban to do with Arona’s injury?

It was Lawrence who went in low & tight on tini's legs, Chester made ref that it went on report !

1 game ban vs season for our player makes sense

Yeah keep things in proportion eh?

Players would certainly have a different approach to tackling if their ban was equal to any absence due to an injury that they had caused / contributed to.
It would certainly stop the cynical stuff from the likes of Wigan.

Sadly, I dont think this would ever be agreed.

I still think back to Chester's first season in charge. Wigan away, O'Loughlin high tackle on Annakin, Annakin out for the rest of the season. The punishment should've fitted the crime.

Wasn’t it KR player or Catalans player that got an extended ban when they found a players was more serious. Surely we should be speaking to the RFL about this which should result in Lawrence getting further games.

have you even read the charge? Because for some reason the minutes haven’t been released, so how do you know what the decision was for?
Lawrence has been playing the game for a decade and in that time has only ever until now received a single one game ban. This despite the fact that he’s played over 250 games at the highest level and is usually the guy with the highest tackle count.
Blame the ref for not calling held, or Arona for not surrendering to the tackle, or wearing blades instead of studs. Don’t blame a guy as straight as they come. To suggest he should be banned for the season is just laughable given his previous record- Go cry to the RFL- they’ll just laugh in your face.

I don't agree that these tackles are a deliberate attempt to injure the player.
I do think they are an attempt to stop the player with little regard for their safety.
The RFL need to take a stand on that.

So lawrence got a one match ban wouldn't it be fairer to say that when he played Wakefield next that ban should come into force, Not have the team they play the week after getting the benefit.
