| Quote Mild Rover="Mild Rover"Yeah, I normally quite like Wells and get a little wound up by Clarke.
But yesterday, I wanted to sup on Wells’ tears so badly. From a Rovers POV, his cheerleading for you was close to nauseating. His excitement at Talanoa lifting his fingers off the touchline before grounding the ball (once you’ve touched the line, the play is dead Jon - and this lot still can’t be bothered to spell your name correctly, despite your desperate attempts ingratiate yourself. So there.)'"
Why would he be 'chearleading' for Hull FC when we are direct competition for a top four place to his own Castleford Tigers?

Not necessarily, only if the panel deemed the appeal to be frivolous I think the wording says.
ATEOTD the club would need to come up with an example of a similar sending off early in a match and the player getting SOS to potentially get the ban overturned.
The club/player can only enter one piece of video evidence as far as I can make out from the new rules.

You are right. The video evidence has to come from the RFL library of clips from the last two seasons. Not sure what the argument would be; is he not guilty? I think this is one we take on the chin and move on.

| Quote Valen="Valen"Everyone seems to have an opinion on this one I spoke to a rovers fan this morning who said it was never a red card, I believe it was, it was clumsy and a poor technique the arm was coming around but after the fact, he also seemed to change his angle of attack just before leaving the ground and went in at a higher angle, which made it look far worse than it would of otherwise. I would love refs to be consistent but we also need to consistent in our expectations, if we cant decide whats a red and whats not we are never going to be happy with the referees decision. There was no intent to cause harm IMO but it could easily have done as much damage as the one he was on the receiving end of against Warrington if he had him a few inches higher.'"
But he wasn't a few inches higher, you could say that about any tackle, "Good if that was 5 inches higher that would have been a awful tackle, Red Card!"

It’s a strange one. I suppose it’s possible that whoever gave Radford the controller for that wheel of fortune graphic, sought to blind the world to the obvious try/no try injustices by giving Wells some of the black and white sycophancy pills that James Smailes presumably takes b.i.d.
Alternatively, he’s not forgiven us for signing Danny McGuire, the man who more than any other (excepting perhaps Zak Hardaker) shattered the Castleford dream in 2017. I imagine Wells returning to his small terraced house in Barnstoneworth that night and crying out in anguish to his wife (played by Gwen Taylor in her late 70s pomp) ‘24-6... 24 bloody 6!’ Before smashing up their furniture and throwing the clock from the mantelpiece through the window.
Those would be my initial lines of inquiry, anyway.

I think he felt a moral duty to balance the scales after the insane comments from that idiot Clark, who was probably wearing a red and white shirt. The guy really does hate FC. Well done Mr. Wells for having a sense of fair play.

I've had to explain to the same person what "foul to the head" means. And who claimed it was one.
The guy doesn't appear too bright.

The HDM seem to think he will be available to play tomorrow...

Shame in a way because I'd prefer him to miss Monday instead of Friday at saints.

| The HDM article is clearly wrong...
"the disciplinary process for the Good Friday games will not take place until Wednesday".
If they'd said that any punishment would not take effect until after Monday, then fair enough.

Offences normally get charged on a Monday then get reviewed on a Tuesday. I'm assuming the charges for good Friday were done yesterday, the Easter Monday offences will be charged on Tuesday then all will be reviewed and bans handed out on Wednesday?
