HKR as expected appealing the appeal. I find this absolutely ridiculous I know this kind of thing goes on in courts also but how is it you can appeal so many times, do you just keep going till you get the verdict you want.

Works for Saints so seems the precedent has been set.

Whilst the look of the sport is unappealing, I'm not really bothered by Hull KR's approach.
No matter who they face in the next round what does it say to the rest of KR's squad, we can only win if Player A is available for selection? Further what does it say to the opposition a lack of confidence in yourself or the disciplinary system?
I've no idea whether it would enter our thinking as we have appealed stuff in the past and I might be being naive here but I'd be more inclined to use the sense of injustice to spur the team on 'Let's do it for Player A to make sure we are still in it when the ban's up'.
Peta Hiku (Hull KR) – Grade E Unnecessary Contact with a Player who is or maybe injured – Refer to Tribunal
What about sh !thouse Burgess and his cheap shot to the head/face of a partially conscious player. Clear head contact on a stationary player, completely avoidable.

I couldn`t remember any incident with Marshall in the game?
The video clearly shows Joe Burgess deliberately dropping on Nsember with his forearm.
For some reason the Sky commentators, video ref, and the disciplinary committee all chose to ignore it.
Totally pathetic given the suspensions handed-out during the season for next to nothing.

Not wishing to go all 'conspiracy theory' here, but it is very strange indeed why they kept stopping the video before Burgess came in. I, and I suspect many others, saw it clearly at the time, and I couldn't believe that in all the times they replayed the incident, they never once ran it forward to that point. Questions to be answered about that whole process.
