I'm not even sure what the Delaney incident was you wanted him banned for, but doesn't look like he's been charged with anything. There wasn't anything in our game worth banning, bar Sims' ridiculous dive and his reckless head clash with Tom Johnstone.

But I thought your whole thesis was based on Saints players didn’t have to do anything wrong to get banned? The MRP could have banned Hurrell if they were as biased as you claim.
Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

The MRP treated Saints more harshly than other clubs for a long time after the Knowles appeal, and still are, because we embarrassed them and showed them up for the incompetent fools they are. I'm not suggesting this is a deliberate, coordinated move, I think they just don't like us. With the RFL's ridiculous policy of not rotating the panel to ensure personal issues and clear conflicts of interests don't cloud it, my theory is they don't like Saints and probably Mike Rush on a personal level.
They can't just make bans up however as they would just be thrown out on appeal as it's looked at by different people.

I’m afraid I’m going to have to tell you something your friend(s) should have a long time ago. You are deluded, there is and never has been a conspiracy against Saints.

I've just said it's not a conspiracy if you cared to actually read what I wrote.

i’ve seen your posts on Redvee (before it went off air). In any event the content of your posts gives lie to your assertion that it isn’t a conspiracy.

Bascially, St Helens and all those odious associated supporters scream injustice or conspiracy at any decision they do not like. Akin to a toddler being told no.

It's a bizarre phenomenon, you don't see any other RL club and it's supporters, successful or not, with such an odd mentality.

I see your point but the mention of "Toby King" seems to stir up some strange/irrational feelings from our "supporters". I write "supporters" because I am fully aware that some come on here simply to stir the pot & see the reaction.
