Unfortunately RL players have a track record of getting into trouble with nightclub scuffles and the like and both Hull clubs have their fair share. IMO, the clubs (FC included) and the RFL have let them off too lightly with the old "dealt with internally" whitewash. Even you must see, though, that this one, with the sustained and brutal nature of the attack and its consequences in terms of injuries, tips into a different category.


The strange thing about this is, i thought that during the summing up by the judge, he stated that one of the reasons for not sending them to prison was because the victim suffered no real injuries, if thats the case then, how come all these injuries have suddenly come to light?.

The suspended sentence is an example of the shambles that our judicial system has evolved into.
Based on the video evidence he should be behind bars and I think the RFL will have "words" with HKR about the continued employment of a convicted thug.

Unlikely if you think of the number of players with criminal convictions.

I keep reading how Cas have done the moral thing in sacking their player but yet they were trying to and came very close to signing Ben before he signed a contract extension with us knowing full well he had pleaded guilty to the allegations :roll:

They also not long ago signed Dwayne Barker who also had a previous conviction.

I don't buy into this whole moral highground thing.

This cas reaction is laughable ,they seem to have acted to appear whiter than white in terminating a player who has appeared for the reserves once this season ,dont forget this is a club that gave a trial to a drug cheat chased away by his own sport who was known worldwide and then took on a previous SL drug cheat,and before you say they were both punished before so was ben cockayne .This is not in defense of ben cockayne BTW

Well it sounds like it, taking a steroid will only affect the person taking it (yes its wrong) . Seems beating the crap out of someone on cctv does not carry a ban as it did in the cases you refer to .

Because both of the cases reffered to involved something that would alter the performance of the players in the sport.
