TS in the hdm alluded to the fact that if this game was on tv something would have been done. After rovers defeat Willie Peters said exactly the same regarding incidents in their game.

TBF, the mitigating factor here is the fact Clifford was dipping due to the slip, and Charnley is committed to the tackle. There was no malice or intent. Charnley was covering that space. You might find it hard to digest but, that's how the MRP saw it as well.

How on earth can you be guilty of head high tackle and not be punished?

Its as daft as saying not guilty but we are going to fine you £250 anyway

He was found guilty but the tackle was judged careless rather than reckless and the fact the Clifford 'dipped' was a mitigating factor.

Dez will probably pay the fine anyway.

He should be banned no doubt

But "player safety" is hard to do when its a contact sport and fans want the sport back to how it was a proper tough sport

Cause last few years it's turned into touch rugby

Fans want tough but also want "player safety"

So it's hard for them to win

For me I think Clifford was slipping and it was reckless rather than intentional so that's why he's been fined and not suspended but I still believe if it was on tv he would have got a sinbin
