Amazed SKD didn't pick up a ban.

Somebody like Liam Watts would have been sent off and banned, no consistency, no wonder fans are shaking their heads at some of these findings

If Clifford stays down and milks it like Lomax et al he may have been.

Right decision by Clifford not to milk it though because then he might have been sent off for a HIA or green carded

I've looked at it a few times, wasn't really malicious and I'd be aggrieved if a Hull player copped a ban for that, but, as you rightly say, someone with Watts' record would have been red carded and banned, so there is no consistency in the process. It should not be a panel review, it should be the ref's call- yellow card = 1 match ban, red card = bigger ban, then we'd have a bit more of a clue how the process works. The biggest laugh of all is that I'd heard Paul Cullen is involved in this; don't know if that is true but he was the personification of the word grub, when playing. Parcell should get a one match ban for knocking out 'ickle Mikey , what a joke that was . Made me chuckle anyway.

I agree, it's just frustrating when you see players doing it, trying to get other players carded and feigning injury. Last thing we would have needed was Clifford off aswell as Hoy.

It was a lazy grab, no malice in it. He did catch him on the chin so the yellow was justified, but if a Hull player saw red or got banned for that I'd be very annoyed.

Cullen is definitely involved. I recall him being on Sky last year (or maybe year before, I forget) trying to explain how it all worked. I think I ended up more confused.
It's probably all changed since then, especially as this year's bans bear no resemblance to last year's.

I'm surprised SKD escaped without a ban as whilst I think it was worthy of a yellow and nothing more based on bans handed out this year for direct contact with the head, this is just another that highlights the inconsistency in the MRP as other players have done very similar and yet got 1 match ban. There is simply no transparency in the system and it just seems to differ one week to the next and depending on who is sitting on the panel that particular week.

The coach didn't know if it was his leg or his head,probably his head, seems to have got a bit big lately

It was Jez Litten not Parcell but I agree. It was hilarious



Served the petulant grub right.

He should be penalised far more than he is for second effort in the tackle. Not sure how he gets away with it all the time?

The more you watch the more it looks as though Lewis is actually trying to headbutt Taylor when you look at the way he moves his head so far back and to the left, its not the sort of movement you see when players are trying to get up quickly.
