Ryan Bailey got a one match ban and fined £300 for his raising his knees in a tackle on Danny Tickle.............

Amazing, truly amazing

Isn't that against the rules? To give Bailey any sort of ban!

It'll be reduced on appeal due to him being a slimey whinging turd.

Agree.
Reduced on appeal with Tickle getting 8 matches, a £20,000 fine and a warning over his future conduct.

Cleared to play....

As soon as I heard he had a ban, I knew it would be overturned, hardly surprising the RFL at their best.

Review panel was Mr Sinfield. Mr McGuire and Mr Burrows, outrageous decision

Was never in doubt...RFL=Corrupt set of jokers!

What a in joke, his defence "a hem, you know i play for leeds"

Its not as if hes even got a good record on his side

I can never undersand the current day appeal system. As all games have access to video evidence, with Sunday's game having the benefit of Sky's additional camera angles, what actually changes in the two days between the disciplinary hearing on the Tuesday and the Appeal hearing on the Thursday.

It's not like 20-30 years ago when new evidence may have come to light. Sorry, but if you punch/knee/high tackle someone on a Sunday, then that is what is reviewed in the initial hearing and your previous conduct is taken into account. The outcome should be the outcome.

With no other factors left to review, how can an appeal be successful???

Just like Radford when he sucker punched bailey 3 or 4 times while he was on the ground holding the ball. Short memories you lot. By the way, has anyone found Radford yet after Bailey threw him over the stand for webbs try ?
