Not really that relevant to this thread but have you heard about this.

"St Helens’ Morgan Knowles is free to play in Saturday’s Betfred Super League Grand Final, following a successful second appeal against a two-match suspension"

This makes a mockery of the MRP and the game as a whole.

It's a joke. Just appeal it until you get what you want.

I thought it was a parody account when I saw it online

Frivolous.

Re: Round 5 - Leeds : Wed Sep 21, 2022 7:58 pm  

Ludicrous

Re: Round 5 - Leeds : Wed Sep 21, 2022 8:01 pm  

Outrageous.

Disgusting…….and they claim they are not bent

Re: Round 5 - Leeds : Wed Sep 21, 2022 8:07 pm  

Make a note of that decision.

Next season when we are due to play in the grand final (on fantasy island) Jake gets a ban the week before just keep appealing until he's free to play.

Joke decision from a joke sport

Come on Leeds

Re: Round 5 - Leeds : Wed Sep 21, 2022 8:58 pm  

Saints had nothing to lose by continuously appealing it, the ban being increased would only affect England, ridiculous though when Leeds get bans increased for frivolous appeals and saints can appeal an appeal and get it over turned. The referee found him guilty at the time, the match review panel found him guilty twice and then today they change their minds..crazy

The sport is just turning in to one big joke and you couldn’t make it up………..well actually you can as they did.

The whole process from match officials through to the RFL disciplinary and board are an embarrassment.

With decisions like this there’s no wonder many fans see the game as bent when it’s clear as day that certain clubs come are treated a lot differently by the disciplinary.
