I'm always prepared for a massive defeat. Anything else is a bonus after the scars of 4 years of Agar.

Last year decisions had been published by early afternoon.

Nothing yet - so maybe they've decided that banning players during a 2 day turnover of games was not such a good idea.

Don't think it's a sending off as I said on the match thread but if players were to bend their backs a bit more when making tackles this would rarely ever be an issue.

Spoke too soon, they did meet.

Bureta Faraimo (Hull FC) - Grade B High tackle - 1 Match Penalty Notice

(whatever that might mean.)

Grasping at straws but does he have an EGP or is that even a thing now?

Watts got a "3 match penalty notice", so I guess he's out of the game on Monday.

Would rather he serve it against Wakey than Saints tbh, so better than expected.

Don't think so. 1 is the lower end of grade B in any case. There is the opportunity for an appeal but that carries risks as well as possible reward.

Everyone seems to have an opinion on this one I spoke to a rovers fan this morning who said it was never a red card, I believe it was, it was clumsy and a poor technique the arm was coming around but after the fact, he also seemed to change his angle of attack just before leaving the ground and went in at a higher angle, which made it look far worse than it would of otherwise. I would love refs to be consistent but we also need to consistent in our expectations, if we cant decide whats a red and whats not we are never going to be happy with the referees decision. There was no intent to cause harm IMO but it could easily have done as much damage as the one he was on the receiving end of against Warrington if he had him a few inches higher.

My understanding is that it’s at the lower end of the scale because he has no previous so it carries a 1 match ban.
What perplexes me is that if he was sent off in the 78th minute then he still has that 1 game ban.
He was sent off after 9 mins so has already served that 1 match. If that’s not the case he’s got nearly 2 games ban.

so radford going to appeal then? he stated he would in the after match interview if faraimo was punished more

With one game I wouldn't. If the appeal isn't uccessful, then you get the full punishment for that grade of offence, so he would end up with 2 matches.

Would sooner see him fresh for Friday with a point to prove.
