In the minutes KPP & Dupree are both cited but NFA

[Mickw]

So how on earth does Percival avoid any sanction whatsoever for racing offside and clattering a leigh player around the head,if that's not dangerous contact then what is.

[josie andrews]

Harry Newman escaped even a citing by the disciplinary for ‘disagreeing with a referee’s decision’ just because the ref didn’t report it!!

He argued with the referee on a couple of occasions if memory serves. One was the try/no try & again with the altercation with Dupree, yet Dupree is cited!

Leeds & Saints seem to be beyond reproach when it comes to the disciplinary!

[Firestarter]

Well im 100% now that the RL is bent.No bans from leigh v saints game???? Percival definitely and the late hit by mbye was diabolical.Pointless if the sports going to go on this way

[Mickw]

If kendal hasn't put that incident in his report then that needs looking into,I thought the review panel went through the games themselves.

[Southern Softy]

Oh right! It was so inconclusive that everyone watching on TV saw it in real time and in slow-mo. Also, the player next to the 'tackle' saw it and alerted the ref.
Fit for purpose? Having a laugh I think.

[Mickw]

Unbelievable, what a farce

[fozzieskem]

Said for awhile the review panel aren't fit for purpose the last few weeks is really proving it
