Why cant the fourth official help out it was so blatant. A ban for the next three games is no help to the fouled team.

Exactly. If he get's a ban we don't get any benefit!

Fourth officials are not allowed to intervene though are they. They would never dream of getting involved without being asked would they?

Never in a millennium.

1 match...if that.

I'd love to see the transcript of who said what in Halibut's ear tonight!

Can't be, surely?



Neither reckless or careless.



IMO



Intentional strike with elbow on ball carrier. C-F, that's a 2-8 match suspension.



I imagine the RFL take into account that the ball carrier wasn't injured and give him the lesser end of the sentence, but for me it would be a 3-4 game ban for that.

No chance... 2 games max... Probably 1 game in reality.

Depends what his charge is, if it's a flop it'll be nowt, however if its deemed intentional use of elbow he can't pick up less than 2 games. We'll have to wait and see what he's charged with. However, you and I both know it was intentional.

Like the brain fart he had against huddersfield on Sky?

He is a disgrace. Full stop. Cheap shot merchant

If he gets a match ban that's him out for the whino's game. I'd never want the whino's to beat wire. Bj is being targeted a lot and this shows he is a threat and his game has much improved
