Let's face it. The on-field discipline of the team has been disgraceful this season. Just take it on the chin and accept players are getting as frustrated about all the mess going on behind the scenes as the fans are

Yes I bloody know transfer fees do not count on the salary cap for those illiterates that need it explaining to them because they assume everyone is as thick as they are :roll:

Not sure you can put our bans down to anything other than the players themselves. Clubb bringing Savelio's race into an argument is hardly likely to be due to behind the scenes frustration. Hardaker has almost certainly brought his frustrations on himself given his performances nosedived as soon as he said he was the best fullback in the comp. And Singleton is just doing what Singleton has done throughout his career - which is pick up stupid bans for foul play.

Happens with 75:11 min on the clock.

Linnett fends off Singleton to the face in an action that looks a potential eye gouge, Singleton responds as he puts Linnett on the floor but nowhere near the Jim Mills class of head butt.

Yep, it wascaught on the BBC Superleague show today - certain ban for that action.
Agree he was possibly provoked, as was Hardaker for his ban - its poor discipline in both cases.

If any contact with the head means 10 minutes (as it seems to do these days), how can fending into the face still be OK?
