www.sportinglife.com/rugbyleague ... Brown.html Says Lockers should be banned for 2 months!!

he has some fair points

He doesn't say Lockers should be banned for two months and I have to say I agree with him. Sam Tomkins gets hit very late and the worst one I can remember was Castleford away last year. Blatant, late and off the ball, but he got nothing for it. Lockers' shot was nowhere near as bad, but I honestly felt he was fortunate to stay on the field.



Edit - yes he did.

To be fair to him he does have a point about the toothless nature of the judiciary panel. The other week we saw a spear tackle go unpunished both during the game and by the panel. That offence used to be a straight red card as it can cause a broken neck.



Almost every week there is at least one player that commits an offence that carries a potential ban of between 4 and 6 games and yet most when found guilty get a small fine and a slap on the wrist.

"Brown, who believes the foul deserved a ban of up to two months."





If that deserves a ban of up to 2 months we would never have any players on the field!

I've seen it now.



I still agree with his points, but a ban of 2 months for something like that is OTT.

that would be making an example of him like he said..therefore players would think twice

I couldnt agree more about our judiciary system but up to 2 months for that is a laughable statement, Basically he is saying that, the ref, the TJ, the judiciary and 50% of fans are completely wrong!!!

But why make an example of him?? because he is bitter about sundays result, you could say that about any of the 10 or 15 players that were all accused of infringements on Sat/Sun!!

"Your game is going to end up that much slower than the NRL soon. If you believe what you read, there are more Aussie coaches coming and we're the ones that wreck it. I'll be the first to admit it.



"Your game won't be free-flowing any more. It doesn't matter to me because as a coach our job is to try to bend the rules and you certainly can bend them over here."



He is pushing it there.

8 weeks though for something like that? I'm sorry, Lockers' shot was not [ithat[/i bad. I've seen far worse.

If he feels that way then maybe he should P155 of back to Aus.



The mans credibility is shot to pieces.



If he is so adverse to violence then why is he condoning his players do it? lets be honest he aint adverse to giving his own players a slip on the sidelines.



Bitter bitter bitter



Add another one to the "mcguire has just pulled my pants down" list.



Edit - I see already Cadoo that you have added him!!
