I agree by the way. Whether they should or not is another matter, and one for Saints alone to decide, but in my opinion it will look somewhat bad if they don't, coming so soon after what HKR did.

I imagine the "He has been punished once" line to be brought out

Pryce was just defending himself against a man armed with a rounders bat.

By pleading guilty, Pryce admitted that he was not acting in lawful self-defence. On the sentence, not going to criticise the judge without knowing anything about the specific case.

I hate Leon and would loved to have seen him sent down, but what he did didnt deserve a prison sentence. End of the day he only pushed the bloke. The judge got it right IMO.

This topic could go on for days but it will only be pathetic petty bickering.

Stuart Reardon, 27, had admitted assaulting his estranged wife Kay after finding out she was seeing another man.

He was given a 12-week suspended sentence at Bradford Magistrates' Court.

His fellow rugby star Leon Pryce, also 27, was ordered to do 100 hours unpaid work.
He had pleaded guilty to assaulting Mrs Reardon's new partner in the same incident.

Makes a change from getting paid to do fu#k all like every time he plays the aussies, bottleless t#at.

spot on. I've seen worse on nights out with police as witnesses and they have done nothing but dish out a verbal warning. All a big fuss over very little.

I have no knowledge of the case apart from the fact that the judge said a few weeks back that they were looking at custodial sentances. Why would he say that, then not follow it though?

This just shows a lot about the world in this day and age.
