Nowhere near as bad as the JJB effort on Graham and he only got one match. Seems the punishment, or lack of (i.e. a formal caution), was consistent which is a first for the RFL disciplinary.

Interesting to note no penalty awarded against Tomkins by the VR for knees in the back of Welham, yet the disciplinary panel seem to think differently judging from the formal caution issued.

It begs the question what the hell a formal caution means. It's hardly a big dterrent to foul play.

According to Martyn Sadler in yesterdays RLE, 'Silverwood had heated words with Tomkins. So if the young Wigan star had committed an offence that was worth a severe telling-off, why was no penalty awarded?'

Proof that the refs have no bottle.

As for the Galea incident, I saw it when I watched the game back and not surprised he only got a warning, didn't warrant anything else.

I thought it was a bad challenge by Tomkins, leaving your boot/foot in, going in with the knees late, these challenges need to be stamped out before someone gets hurt badly. It will probably take a bad injury before some of these challenges are punished.

Galea should have got a 1 game ban. Imo if it wasn't the end of the season he'd have got one.

Which effectively would have been no ban anyway as the friendly with Hull in January would have counted.

Of course this would have gone on his record , but to be honest I don't think that means a great deal.

Are you suggesting that there are unscrupulous goings on at the RFL? :THINK: :THINK:

If he is it would hardly be the first time someone has had doubts about the RFL disciplinary panel and given their past inconsistency it would hardly be a totally fanciful suggestion.
