The sin bin episode covering moving an injured player, including the gwaze incident.
Obviously because of the fall out on social media and the press on the discrepancies in gradings / length of the bans the RFL have gone away and come up with what they think puts them in the clear and justifies their actions and choose 4 examples.
All seems fine when you look at what led up to each incident and how much lifting was involved and taken on it's own you can see how Titus got the more severe punishment.
However as early as the 3rd minute of the interview Dave Rotherham the Chief On Field Officer of the RFL when speaking on the video ref and Quote"
[b] the match officials working together to keep our game safe."
Well in the Barrow /Fax game the build up had from the very first jumping head high tackle multiple incidents of foul play by Hakim Miloudi on Greg Worthington that went on for some time.
What action did the touch judge "
a match official " take on any of them, the first high tackle, the head butt or the neck and head lock using it as a lever to twist Worthington to the ground as Stack was holding him upright. (The pressure and force of which could have easily resulted in him having serious neck or spinal injuries.)
Did he raise his flag, enter the field of play, speak to ref through his microphone at any time during this?
NO he did nothing until after it had all kicked off.
In doing nothing
the touch judge failed in working together as a match official and failed in keeping our game safe and because of that was as much to blame as anybody.
Did the RFL acknowledge this?
NO.
Did this official receive a ban or other punishment of any kind?
NOBefore you look at everyone else take at look at yourselves and you will very likely find that the majority of problems and issues facing the game today are down to you.
