It was raised at the game mate, on the night. To the match commissioner. Even Carter acknowledges that they have been aware of this charge for some time or words to that effect.



Sorry just to add that I don't know what they do or don't have. None of us do. (Apart from the one kid with the inside track that this is all just hearsay).

I'm only on here because your fans have accused my club, its officials and player of deliberately trying to stir trouble. I don't think that would be the case. Our issue wasn't and isn't about Wakefield.

As far as I'm aware, the burden of proof the panel operate within will be 'on the balance of probability' - and looking at the outcome of the hearing, they appear to have made a decision that would bear scrutiny. It seems harsh to charge a man who was flat on his back, completely vulnerable, and trying to protect himself from several people throwing punches - but there it is.



They do have two problems though; the first is the chain of events that led to Moore being cited for this - in that it's not clear that they followed their own process. The second is consistency and as a result, proportionality - if you trawl all the disciplinary decisions just for this season, you will find glaring inconsistencies and wildly different sanctions issued for what appears to be the same offence. I deal with employment matters and if I dealt with an employee like that, they have recourse to the Employment Tribunal if they think a decision has been unfair or the proper procedure has not been followed; I'm not sure if any such recourse is available to RL players.

Just in time so they can ban him for the cup game the week after for looking too threateningly at a Rhinos player.

You have to question why the tough judge managed to get a good and clear view, 10 days after the event and yet saw nothing to mention in the first hearing





Although Moore may (or may not) have done anything, this incident has a very strange whiff about it and it is diabolical that on a full hearing, the best that they can come up with is the position of the touch judge and yet nothing can be seen on the video.

4 match ban....... total retrospective farce



The RFL think they can walk all over us (And have yet again)

Out of curiosity who did he gouge, their extra player.
