We must be top of the pile for bans this season
With 14 for McGuire, 6 for Dudson, now 4 for Vaughan , that’s 24 man-games lost
Apologies to others I can’t think of now

In response to brook40 (sorry, the quote facility appears to be not working), it's the grading system that's wrong here, in my opinion. We all know the kind of incident this rule is aiming to stamp out, and Vaughan's was clearly nothing like one of those. It's obviously a minor incident (if you can even call it that) at the lowest end of the scale for this 'offence', so why make that scale begin at four matches? It just makes the whole process look ridiculous.

So, and apologies if I sound surprised, you’re a Warrington fan?
I suspect I’m not the only one that will take some convincing.

As someone posted on Facebook, Jon Wilkin will be having wet dreams over this banning. As for me i expect him to go on a major rant about it on Sky.

Appeal failed, no shock there then.

We’ve battered Vaughan this season - send him for an extended break, we’re not going to get to OT never mind win the league, and have him raring to go in the new year.

RFL disciplinary rule book was written by some kids with crayons 80 years ago.

Middleton comments on the Paul Vaughan ban. The club needed to be more vocal IMHO given the tacit acceptance of the 2nd McGuire ban, when there was no evidence whatsoever. https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/sp ... ughan-ban/

this might be the silliest ban RL has ever seen.
