One of the very few criticisms of Lenagan IMO is that since he took over we have become the RFL biatches. They say jump we say how high.

Lima pleaded guilty
Lima was found guilty of two charges of making dangerous contact with opponents in the Warriors' draw with St Helens in the final match of the opening day of Millennium Magic on Saturday.

The Disciplinary Committee handed down a one-match ban for each offence, the first on Sia Soliola in the 13th minute and the second on Jon Wilkin in the 53rd minute. Lima, who pleaded guilty, was also fined £300 and issued with a formal warning that if he reoffends with the same type of tackle a considerable period of suspension would be imposed.
Contrast with;
Salford City Reds hooker Wayne Godwin was suspended for two matches after being found guilty of running in and punching in the 80th minute of his side's defeat by Crusaders on Sunday. Godwin, who pleaded not guilty, was also fined £300.

Wakefield Trinity immediately announced their intention to appeal after centre Aaron Murphy was banned for two matches and fined £300 when the Disciplinary Committee found him guilty of a dangerous throw, lift and drop in the 29th minute of the Wildcats' defeat by Castleford Tigers on Sunday.

Yes I can see how taking out a few of Wilkins teeth next time would almost be worth a 'two week ban' :sly:
Would never happen that way though would it :roll:

Have to say it is more than a bit ironic that our player pleads guilty for offences that none of the officials and the vast majority of fans were not aware of at all and Wayne Godwin who was red carded by the ref pleads not guilty when the world and his wife saw him run up behind Schifcofske and give him a whack in the face.

Very odd.
Never argue with an idiot. He will bring you down to his level and beat you with experience.
