If gobby Kear had kept it shut there would have been no ban. It did not deserve one.

made an example of him, £300 fine also... no wonder he's struggling to find form, he's probably afraid to move in case he gets punished. This is outrageous... thank you Hinge and Bracket, aka Kear and Schofield :craz: :craz:

Lima will be a big miss on Friday against a big Cats pack. His stats were good last week against Leeds. Plenty have criticised his performances this year but he has been steady. We must remember that RL is a team game and the props need to work in tandem to be effective.
If everyone is expecting him to make regular defence busting tackles then you will be sadly disappointed - I can't think of a prop in SL who does so on a regular basis. If he is expected to drive the ball up 10 - 15 times, making 60 - 80 metres and make 25+ tackles, then Jeff is your man.

The Jeff Lima sin binning / suspension / media assassination is one of the worst decisions ever made in RL.
