Make your own mind up.

It's a 4 match ban for me but if he gets owt it will probably be 2 matches if anything at all

They won’t get anything IMO. There wasn’t a fuss made on the tv coverage and that’s half the battle won for Saints. A pair of cautions maybe to tell them not to do it again.

Does the blood bin not exist anymore? Obviously we can never have too many close ups of James Graham, but it came close.

nope, was removed ages ago when they increased the interchanges, due to people potentially taking the mickey and getting a free interchange.

then we brought them down from 10 to 8

He's supposed to be treated immediately in backplay, or taken off if bleeding profusely, in which case Saints would either have to use up an interchange to bring someone else on, or otherwise temporarily play a man down whilst he's treated

Why did we stop play for 5 mins then? I understand the caution around head injuries, but you're hardly going to be bleeding from amywhere else are you?

There is no way Saints can possibly have benefitted from a ref giving them an advantage of any sort, everyone knows they are totally biased against them (I’m relying on Redvee for my authority on this).

Latest news is Wells has torn a MCL and dislocated he knee cap as a result of the challenge. His season and possibly Wigan career is over as a result.
