Quote Danny 2="Danny 2"not if the rfl de-register him they wont'"
I am no lawyer, but I would imagine that any punishment dished out by the RFL would have to be for a certain offence ie: bringing the game into disrepute, I doubt they could start to deliberate the offence and sentence as the courts have already done this. If they choose to go down this road and start to dish out a second punishment based on the severity of the offence they could end up on dodgy ground.
In the forces we had something called concequencial punishment, which meant the Navy could punish us again if we ended up in civvy court, but it did not depend on the severity of the offence you were convicted of, you could have got drunk or murdered someone, if the courts released you the most you got was loss of one days pay and a day added to your length of service.
If they take the stance to de-register Cockayne, they inevitable will have to de-register Pryce andReardon once sentenced.
