Quote: Hessle Roader "Call it a conspiracy if you like, but I believe Liam got off because if they charged him they couldn't have not charged SOL for his assault on Marc. They're bent and we all know it.'"

Assault? icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Seriously, even a penalty for that would have been one of the softest the sport had ever seen. He goes for the charge down and barely brushes Sneyd. There is probably a fingertip of contact and you want him charged, yet Watts' raised elbow makes full contact with MM's jaw and knocks him out and cry that the RFL are picking on you? You lot are quickly making yourselves a laughing stock here. Give your heads a wobble.

Quote: Chris71 "You not read the RFL Disciplinary charge and summary I take it? guessing you haven't with the bit of your post I've highlighted in bold. If you had you would have noticed the panel have clearly stated that Watts arm or elbow were not 'promoted'. This confirms it was a bad decision to give a card and was McIlorums poor attempt at trying to put a big hit on Watts, in essence a bit like trying to go head on against a bus only riding a bike.

I've copied and pasted the RFL statement for you (sorry I don't have any pictures but it's not joined up writing so you should be ok)

“Player carrying ball in and begins to change direction and brace for impact from defender who is approaching player at speed from the inside. Elbow and forearm of player are not promoted. Contact made between head of opponent and front of arm of opponent. Sending Off Sufficient,” the RFL stated on their website'"

I've read it. They do not say the elbow was not raised, because of course it was. As anyone can see the arm moves away from Watts' body and into MM's jaw. The RFL decision was to charge Watts and to consider the sending off sufficient, which clearly supports the on field decision, you know, the opposite of proving it wrong. I understood this, it seems you did not, despite it not being joined up writing, as you say. Thanks for the laugh though. Perhaps next time you want to try and be a smart you'll make sure you understand what you're talking about before insinuating someone else doesn't. icon_wink.gif

Quote: Wellsy13 "Reading really is not your strong point.
[i"Elbow and forearm of player are not promoted." [/i

Promoted is a synonym for raised, lead, elevated, advanced... Need I go on?'"

Not quite correct. The word promote is specific to intentional actions. I understand that nuance and why it's correct for the RFL to state that. Believe me when I say I take no pleasure in this, I genuinely cringe whenever someone on the internet attempts to belittle someone else's understanding of English whilst displaying their own ignorance.
