| Quote: Prince Buster "Other than revenge what would a ban do to help Wakey. Now he has been cleared he will play against Quins next week and Wigan the week after.
I realise this could be strange logic but at the end of the day not getting a ban could do Wakey the biggest favour.'"
Saints next 2 matches are Harlequins and Wigan. I for one would rather Cunningham was playing. Move on.

| Quote: Legless "How many players have thrown punches this season?
How many have been banned?
It's Rugby, an aggressive game by it's very nature. Punches WILL be thrown and tempers WILL flare. It was wrong of Keiron to react, but it will happen. Glad Stosic is OK.'"
Still no excuse. Cunningham's a dirty player and always has been. Why he's been allowed to get away with it for so long is a mystery.
Quote: Legless "Amusing thread.
As a Wigan fan I find it hilarious that fans of other clubs are surprised to learn that Saints have the RFL in their pocket. Its been like this for years.'"
Ah, mystery solved.
Should have looked at the salary cap breaches to realise that. Is it 6 or 7 Saints managed? Only one points deduction, though. I know it was at least 2 more breaches than Bradford and Wigan.

| Quote: worksopwildcat "Agreed.
An why is everyone calling it a punch - the bloke had a rugby ball in his hand for gods sake - it wasnt a clenched fist.'"
Exactly, a definition of a punch is hitting someone with a clenched fist. How did Cunningham managed to punch with a rugby ball in the palm of his hand......truly remarkable.

| Quote: H2O "watch the replay closley and you will clearly see that cunningham the thug has the ball between his forearm and bicep, therefore the fist is clearly clenched and thats what strikes Stosic.
It maybe rugby and all you tuffies may think its ok, but I am sure you would think otherwise if it happened to a child of yours playing for a local rugby club. Some of you should think seriously before posting your pathetic coments on here.
however this is not kids rugby pal, its super league. I bet you like everyone else cheers when a bit of a bust up on the field goes up ? I do, and every one around me appears to do so, fights go on, punches get thrown, if we ban every player for venting anger then we will be like football with players rolling around like big queens

| We need Saints to be at their best for the remaining games against our playoff rivals. Would also hate them to lose the cup semi.

| Quote: IngsRoader "If you follow the logic through of the decision it means it's OK to punch someone (after all a 'jab' is a punch) even though they can't defend themself (a.because they weren't expecting it b.they have no free hands) as long as you don't hit them in the eye

| one is Keiron Cunningham and the other is Ben Cockayne - simples
fwiw i don't think the incident itself warranted a long ban or anything and certainly it shouldn't have anything to do with whether he injured Stosic, but i think a 1 match ban would have been fair.
the reasoning RFL gave out was just utter cobblers
