What relevance has that got?

Green did a late shoulder charge on travis,2 matches reduced to one because of his EGP,his 1st offence,travis's record suggest he is no angel,the longest ban in aussie history and you say you dont want a thug in your side.Did you complain the last 2 seasons when he played for us ?

oh like Joel Moon last season who got sent off...

1. Are you absolutely certain that Burn's ban was the longest in Aussie history, or are you winging it again?
2. Burns was a hard, physical player for Rovers, I don't recall him causing anyone a significant injury in his time here. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
3. As per my previous comment, what relevance has Burn's past record, or indeed his perceived personal traits go to do with Green's ban?

As for not wanting a thug in the side, I don't, and more specifically, I don't want Green to develop into one. Strong, hard runner, yes, but not a forward who takes out half backs, the props union would not approve. Note, this also applies to Allgood, but his reputation followed him half way round to globe and cost him a 2nd match.

Green made a late shoulder charge on burns,at the time if you were there it didnt look to bad,after watching it on telly it looked far worse.He probably should have got sent off,but it is one isolated incident in a young career,of course we dont when him or any rovers player to be a thug,but it seems he took plenty of stick off burns and probably saw the chance to even the score.Burns was one of my favourite players in oz and here,but is not exactly an angel.You say he didnt cause anybody any major injury while at rovers,not sure on that,but if you tackle high you will injure people.
Larroyer didnt get a broken cheek bone at warrington having a half time cup of tea,but I dont recall anyone pulled up about it.Green deserved his ban and thats it,as regards burns being the longest ban in aussie history for on the field offences,if it wasn't iam sure you will tell us what was.Possibly john hopoate ?

Triple fracture of the cheekbone , Burns out for several months.

Green gets one match.

That's a disgrace.

Cheap dog shots from east Hull.
No surprise really.

Why is it "no surprise"?

Don't trip over that lip on your way out.

Green has been lucky. But I doubt very much he set out to intentionally cause this injury to Burns, throughout Green's entire Rovers career his biggest criticism has been his lack of aggression for a lad of his size. I think he meant to hurt him, but when you play RL every single hit you put on an opponent you want to hurt them, it's a contact sport. I'm not condoning it, it was wrong and he should have walked. The fact he's got one game is just the way the disciplinary is set up.

I'm not a fan of Burns and I wasn't particularly a fan of him when he was here, but I do wish him a speedy recovery.

Green was lucky with a grade B.

I seem to remember him putting Blake Green out for a few months with a late cheap shot not long after coming to Rovers.
As a rule he seemed to injure himself rather than the opposition when he tried to do it for us, such as at the KC, when he did his arm/shoulder.

To me it looked far worse then it was, tall guy on small guy, unfortunately bully boy burns come off worse!!!! Some say it was a cheap shot!!! I think he wanted to make a point and put a marker on him, yes hurt but not in the way it happened. Also if any of you never saw the cheap shots burns did while playing for us!!!!! Well one word Specsavers!!!

Not enough exclamation marks in that post. Can't take it seriously.

It seems several fans think burns was a thug stan,fancy that.As I said earlier every time you cheap shot somebody you don't always injure them,but the intent is there.

You're point is?
