Four Super League players suspended

Post by josie andrews »

Gareth Hock of Widnes Vikings has been suspended for one match after being found guilty of using foul and abusive language to a match official in his club’s Super League Round 6 fixture against Bradford Bulls on Friday March 8.

Hock was also fined £300 when he appeared before the RFL Disciplinary Committee this evening.

Hull FC forward Mark O’Meley was found not guilty of the Grade B offence of punching in the Round 6 fixture v Castleford Tigers on Friday March 8.

Earlier, O’Meley’s team-mate Danny Tickle (one match, Grade B) and Castleford players Justin Carney (two matches, Grade C) and Weller Hauraki (one match, Grade B) were all suspended after submitting

Early Guilty Pleas to punching offences in the same fixture.

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Think if Hock went past Red Hall on a bus he'd get a ban.

Owd goldfish gob Millward has it right about fighting on the field though. If someone thumps you, you're bound to retaliate, yet if you do, you still get a ban.

The "Early Plea" is a load of crap. If you do the crime you should do the time. What has admitting it got to do with anything? If anything they should be penalised more, just with no fine for it not having to go to panel

The best form of defence is attack!!

Out of the black and into the red, remember you don't get anything for two in a bed!!
