As the game grows, we're going to get more thugs - it needs to be stamped out.

A bottle was also thrown at the referee during the Bulls vs Saints game last week.

It is a long way from that but I thinks as has been said it needs to be stamped out now and a zero tolerance message sent out.

RL in the past has had more than its fair share of trouble and we don't want to see a return to that.

i think (hate to say this) that cas should now be made an example of.

I don't want to go to a game and see anything but the game.

Yup, that'd be right, ignore all the times fans of 'bigger' clubs have done it and make an example of Cas.

I do remember when Leeds fans littered the Cas pitch with bottles in 2006 there was barely a whimper in the media, or on here...

Oh, and before people talk of me condoning it, I said this on another thread on the subject:

Seen aggression at Castleford a few times. Been hit with a 50pence before, though it helped buy me an ice-cream.

Of course, there are two sides to every argument and Widnes certainly have their fair share of idiots (generally teenage boys) which are often responsible for stirring things up.

The only sensible thing to do (if proven true) is dock them a couple of points. A strong deterrent is required, apparently its not the first time this kind of thing has gone on at Cas.

it's because it was ignored before that it carries on. i did say i'd hate it to happen to cas but what do we do. do we say cas are a small club we'll let it slip and wait for one of the big3 to do it before we punish anyone ?

It should have happened at Leeds, it didn't but it should happen this time.
Sorry but even if this was Wire (especially wire actually) i'd want the same thing.
Im not getting holier than thou but we are supposed to be a family game.

Tough one, as you'd have to be consistant which we know is not the RFL's strength. It could also cause issues if certain clubs get fined/docked points and others don't.

It is a shame, we pride ourselves on how the fans can mingle (albeit with lots of banter) and I continually talk up the Magic weekends as there is no way in the world football could do that.

The fans need to behave better. And whoever did misbehave at Cas, I hope they get found and banned.
