I see we've got chief spotlight-hogger Chris Kendall in charge against Saints, by the way. I wonder which lucky soul will be on the receiving end of his "there is nerrrr mitigation" catchphrase this week?

So Makinson had his reduced from 3 to 2 are we saying Vaughan’s was worse when given Makinson jumped up when he made contact with the player. Was not bothered about him missing these 3 games but the failed appeal as really annoyed me given in my opinion the Makinson contact was worse. And I did say at the time Makinson got 3 for it I thought was harsh.
Paul Cullen. You are a discrace to the sport. You are a absolute bell (finish it off ) you have destroyed this once great sport and you have made rhe sport a laughing stock around the world. You are one of the reasons why this sport is in the state it is in and whether sport is in decline. Fire him immediately and let them play. We put a mural on the wall of the kings head. This man is supposed to be revered by the wire faithful. But is being ridiculed and rightly absolutely lambasted for the shocking way that he and his team are running the disciplinary panel. He has single handedly destroyed his legacy with the actions he is taking in running this disciplinary.

What bothers me about the process is only 1 person watches each game and then decides what goes to the panel. So if you think about all the times people moan about other incidents that are missed then for me there’s your answer.
I can’t see how having 1 person only deciding what goes up in front of the panel and the panel making a decision on level of penalty is acceptable. We can see who the 6 people are we just don’t know which game they watch. For me 3 people should look at each game.
Then if and when a player decides to appeal we have KC and 3 side panel members, sorry could not stop laughing when I saw Adrian Morley’s name on there. But a KC is not cheap no wonder the RFL is potless when paying these people are we scared to police it ourselves.
Next all these rules that we have now and how many that are saying about the difference between here and the NRL it’s simple, our sport is being sued to death by players that played back in the day now looking for a payoff on something we did not know much about as we do now. No ignorance not an excuse but it was what is back then and now the RFL are making all these rules because they just can’t afford more lawsuits.
