Fairbank Grade E referral to tribunal. Punching- sustained,repeated or violent.
Long ban coming for him.
Looked really bad at the time

Both angles fax tv and bulls tv show hallas striking first and blood coming from Fairbanks face , depends if you think the rules should be subjective or objective.

They had a clash yep but no need for Fairbank to throw the punch as he did but don't really matter what we think. RFL have watched the footage and decided it warrants a tribunal. Whether he gets a ban is another matter.

I think fairbank should be banned no problem with that at all , hallas should receive a ban also , if player welfare is paramount and the game is to be fair then that should be the outcome, if it isn’t it is setting the precedent of as long as it’s not seen I can break the rules , not an attitude I want to be seen in any sport .

It was like watching a game from the 80s. Traditional opening minutes of softening up. Punches thrown. We even provided some rotund forwards to add to the effect.

Maybe that’s why fairbank was sporting his sting from dune hairdo , crossley doing his best attempt at the batistuta nod after Beckham sending off in 98 .

The fact that a player called Fairbank was sent off added even more to the air of nostalgia.

Here (But Only for the Beer)

Re: Halifax (H) : Thu Apr 21, 2022 7:34 pm  
Haha. Bongser recalls Karl Konkreet, but for a second thought of George Fairbairn. When playing for HKR at home in the early eighties, the latter absolutely chinned a young second choice Leigh half (think his name was David Dunn). The lad was flat out - no action taken. The game was on the box and the Beeb summariser said "In fairness, the lad was asking for that."

My, my (or in third person: His, his), how the game has changed!
