I think this is likely

I haven't seen anything which shows Westwood spitting. Fans just make stuff up though to suit their agenda.

It was a bad tackle, and I would expect 4-6 games, as it is pretty much as bad as you can get, but after it, it looked to me like Westwood realised and was looking at the opposition players face to see he was okay, but obviously people assume he is being a scumbag and having a go in his face.

He might have done a lot of things wrong but I don't think he spat at the player.

Without reading all the the posts on this are we refering to his "tackle" early on? Having only seen from where I was stood it looked like a hard but fair tackle, feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

were was you stood kc stadium fella.
without going over the top it was a premeditated attack on a proffessional rugby player who is trying to earn a hard and short living in the game made even shorter with attacks like that. i have played the game and when you hit someone in the face, if deliberate you shout abscenities down there lug hole, if you hit them in the face and its not deliberate you hold your hand up and go see how the player is maybe when they get stretchered off you go and see how they are. A bit like what shaun briscoe did on saturday a proffessional.
this westwood thug guy and that is what he is i'm sorry to say should get 10 matches £1000 fine

I think that at the time the game was being played at a very high tempo, with tempers flying, and Benny has gone in too high.

why

he jumped up and swung at his head. It wasnt mis-timed it was on purpose. After this he did rant at the guy on the ground. I really dont know how you can defend him TBH.

Different people, different views fella. That's all.

If the RFL had any bottle he'd get 5-7 games. I expect about 2-3 though.

I was stood near the try line at the end Catalans were attacking first half and didn't have a great view of the incident. I'm yet to see it again but if it is as bad as this thread is making it out to be then he deserves whatever ban comes his way.

I've just been to the Catalans forum to see if Lister the Blister has started a simlilar topic about Fakir's hit on Morley.

Do you reckon he has?

If alls fair, as it should be, both Fakir and Westwood should receive the same ban.
