It also works in our favour at times, we were delighted when McShane got a ban, the fact that we didn't benefit from it was our fault. I can't imagine how complex such a delayed system would be, not for me thansk.

It isn’t possible but the penalty should be where the guilty player misses every game that the injured player misses plus one more (or what ever) game.

What happens if it's a career ending injury?

It's a tough game and sometimes the tackler just gets it wrong, not always a malicious. To talk about banning a player like Lawrence for the rest of the season is not credible solution for me.

Lawrence's ban was for a tackle on Kirmond in the 77th minute,

So if Kirmo plays next game, should Lawrence ban be quashed???

Oh dear- don’t we all look a bit silly now for frothing at the mouth and calling for him to be out for the same time as Arona.

Hey I’m not at all angry- I’m laughing my head of at how silly the majority of you now look getting worked up over an incident that wasn’t. And just being so absolutely plain wrong in your single mindedness that lawremce was to be blamed for Aronas injury. Talk about a lynch mob!

I did question early on in the thread if you were sure you knew why the ban had been given. Didn’t seem to matter to you though when some of you were calling for a player to be banned for the season - Without knowing the facts.
The match review panel states he makes contact around the WAIST, but you lot on here and on social media all definitely saw something else yeah?

As you have previously stated this is a forum and he's allowed to comment just the same us you.

Was an easy mistake to make given that it was Lawrence who was involved in the tackle that ended with Arona going off...

Just the RL late in releasing the minutes...

FWIW...I don't see Lawrence as a dirty player and I don't think he set out to injure Arona in any way at all....it's just another one of those unfortunate injuries...the panel deemed it as accidental and I'd go along with that...

Surely though going forward something needs looking at because too many injuries are happening....it's all in the wrestle...players carrying the ball and keeping upright with their strength and then are being taken to ground by 3rd and 4th men in which is then meaning huge pressures are being put on muscles, legs twisting etc...imagine going to ground and having the weight of 2 or 3 men on you...no wonder there's so many serious injuries happening..

Fwiw it's a she not a he, and one with a deep loathing of anything Wakey.

Well we'll all have our opinions about tactics being used to down players. If they are not deliberate then some of the tackles are downright dangerous - more than careless.
I do think the referees can do more by shouting 'held' earlier.
Or was it pure coincidence that we had four players carried off against Wigan?
