Question: If Hock gets banned for 3 matches would the England game count seeing as he is in the squad?

nope cos he won't be selected if already banned. ie, he won't make the 18 on the day squad.

Tuson will not get banned. The report fro the touch judge that looks like Barry Chuckle said Tuson and Magginis(sp) were throwing punches. Obviosly he didn't see what sparked it. IF he does get banned then the RFL needs to have long look at itself.



Hock I'm unsure of. Did any of punches connect? Again I can't see him getting a ban as this thing happens all the time. But there again it is Hock so I wouldn't be surprised if he copped a big ban.



Why are MM and Mossop up before the beak? I wouldn't be surprised to see SOL up there as well as he looked like his brother in law from the 2004 Good Friday figh...I meant match. I think the person who will cop the most is Magginis but I'll talk about the bag on the other thread.

Mossop hasn't got a leg to stand on when he goes to Red Hall.

In the real world, this would be the acid test - given the precedent set by the Chase punishment, no-one should now get 3 games or more unless they commit an equally serious offence, but the RFL Disciplinary seem impervious to embarrassment when it comes to this kind of thing. I expect Hock to get at least 3.

It was more or less handbags, Ben Thaler went overboard on confused info from the linesmen on an incident that ruined the game as an event, and put a damper on the whole weekend tournament, (the only other blot was the Warrington, Widnes debackle.) I don't think the touchies expected Thaler to throw a wobbler and see red, what a joke, yellows at worst, it seemed that what was the start of the piece was just a rubbing of nuts with Hock and Louie Mc, which seemed to move into some kind of yed-to-yed dance, not much more than that. The Magennis v Tuson match-up was a bit more of a seeing-to, but it was a hot day, a bad game for the Saints, and no doubt a bit of gob from both sides. THE REAL FOOL WAS THALER. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN YELLOW!! IF ANYTHING?.







Rock 'n' Roll.

anything for Wello and his 2 finger salute?

Total over-reaction. What did Chase get for his cowardly attack to the jaw?

As a neutral, i think they should all get SOS. A regular weekly round and not the RFL's showcase event and i think we could have been looking at 3 yellows rather than reds.



As it is and trying to somehow guess what the RFL will do:

Hock - 2 games

Tusson - 1 game

M'ginnis - 1 game - May go to 2 as he was just been a dick

Mossop - 1 game - For throwing one (a good one at that!) and backing up as quickly as poss



Having said that, based on the Chase decision, they could all be knighted for services to RL!

Hock and LMS was a bit of handbags, nothing to serious IMO.



Mossop/Tuson could get 1/2 each.

Magennis should get 4/5.

Hock C-D (2-3 matches)

Tuson A-D (0-5 matches)

Magennis E-F (4-8+)

mossop C-D (2-5)



my opinion by the way.



Strikes – punching A-B Reaction to opponent – lashing out

A-B Punching – self defence

A-B Punching – one on one – minor

C-D Punching – sustained, repeated or violent

E Punching – sustained, repeated, violent &

aggressive

C-D Running in & punching

E-F Running in & punching – opponent off guard

Other Striking offences A-F

Reading the above doesnt Mossop fall into the same bracket as McGennis then?
