Who is the mystery "middle" that might be available this week.
Is it Luke Thomas?

The game is lacking so much credibility. How can they pluck an offence out of thin air, something not reported or penalised on the night in front of the cameras. But piers-paul chicken winging clarks knee, the one he's just recovered from injury with, gets totally ignored. Totally bent, makes me want to stop watching.

I seen that and have just seen what Vaughan got a ridiculous ban for..you don't have to be Einstein to work out which is the worst offence

I've seen the video of the cheap shot goon trying to end Daryl Clarks season...it beggars belief that it will go totally un-noticed by the RFL and the match officials. Clark should have stayed down and brought attention to it. I don't like play acting, but jeez sometimes honesty is not the best policy. Who do Catalans play this week? I'd put a £10 on at least one of their key forwards getting a ban after their next game.

I don't get the disciplinary; how can Vaughan & Charnley get charged for the same offence, but Vaughan gets a ban & Charnley gets a fine? Am I missing something?

It’s been happening all season mate.

Now now, as you said we just have to accept everything as correct or we sound like Saints fans.

Re: This week’s disciplinary : Tue Apr 18, 2023 7:04 am  

The club are far too reticent. We should appeal Vaughans ban and if that fails, appeal again as Saints did.

If they double the ban, we can cope v Wakefield but the disciplinary are such a mealy-mouthed bunch they'll probably capitulate at the slightest show of annoyance from us.

Are they? Did you see how they argued against the mcguire suspension?

The Entertainers* are now citing Pierce Paul’s non disciplinary action as further proof of the RFL’s bias against them.
Apparently had a Saints player done that it would have been 8-10 games and/or Clark has signed for Saints so it’s ok to do that.
The fact that any player from any team should be banned for that behaviour seems to have eluded them.
*the sobriquet “The Entertainers� is to be used in a sarcastic fashion until further notice
