So in other words, we are back to square one with this incident. Leigh did not cite the incident because they never do. The RFL disciplinary must have singled this incident out. DVD inconclusive, so they are saying they basically haven't got the required level of footage to say one way or t'other ( they haven't got a clue)
Neither player nor coach made any suggestions of foul play and indicated that these things happen in a contact sport - hence no citation from Leigh.
The evidence they reviewed suggests whilst inconclusive suggests "shoulder to shoulder", which is how player, coach and myself saw it in real time.
Are you suggesting they should have banned Ingy or Stu because of "your feelings" despite what evidence there is suggesting otherwise?

I expect Rugby League forrads to approach each tackle with aggression and determination. If it's a fair tackle I'll accept the outcome.
If a player comes out with the deliberate attempt to
illegally hurt someone then he'll be sent from the field.
I realise you haven't suggested that UTS but the underlying tone is there. e.g. despite player testimony and available evidence you still believe foul play took place and went unpunished - something you hope will be reciprocated thursday!
C'est la vie.
