The RFL are undermining their own referees and then complain that they don't get the respect they should. This incident was dealt with on the pitch. Both players were removed for 10 minutes. Why does the RFL think that they need to be punished a second time? Still not as bad as Scott Moore being pulled in weeks later and banned for 4 weeks for something that hadn't even been cited weeks earlier. The RFL are doing a superb job of ruining what was a great sport but will soon be touch and pass.

Ash was throwing some right haymakers tbf, he deserves the 1 game ban

Singleton gets two games (before using up his Early Guilty Plea) and Sims the one. As the rules stand at the minute, and considering that Singleton initiated the whole thing with his cheap shot from behind and then throwing the first punch, a fair enough result.

No. The law is an ass.

We now live in a world of over sanitised sport, and it smells worse than Baldrick's trousers.

And you know what?. It's only going to get worse.

U do know it's not the 80s!!

I disagree, having looked again he went well beyond self defence, they should both have been sent off then he would've been available for Friday.
