    Genuinely thought someone had hacked the RFL Twitter page when I first saw it. Astounding work by the club

    Saints going about their business in a nice quiet professional manner.
    Great news for Morgan - one of the hardest working players in the team who deserves to play on the big stage on Saturday.

    Good. As I said it was never a ban, never dangerous, it’s a restraint / wrestling hold to slow the play the ball down. Atkin hit by top tier sniper and the club knew they had good grounds to appeal . Justice has been served .

    Shocked and surprised. I’d heard this, this afternoon but didn’t think it was legit, I had it down as one of those social media rumours. I don’t know how we’ve got away with it, for me, he was bang to rights and deserving of a ban based on the stupidity, if not the action itself.

    It wasn’t a ban though, take Atkins swan dive out of your mind it was never a ban.

    Hilarious. Fair play to our legal team.

    I was of the opinion it was. Knowles had hold of his arm as he retreated from one side of Atkin’s body to the other. The reaction of Atkin may have been extreme but the act itself was stupid and worthy of a punishment.

    It was stupid and also punished, Knowles spent ten in the bin and we conceded six points. I think it was fair in relation to the incident, it was never two matches.

    I think you got it right, anyone thinking that was two games as probably never played the game.

    Atkin should get the two match ban for faking injury.

    “Attacking” players joints and “unnatural positions” has been a ban (as wel as punishment on the day) for a little while now. I can’t say that I agree with the RFL’s decision to reduce the ban and I wouldn’t be happy had it been a Leeds player going from two to free to play within twenty four hours of the appeal.



    How we’ve got away with that, I don’t know. I’m glad we have but The RFL and the disciplinary process need binning immediately.

    This is what the RFL have said "Tonight’s tribunal accepted that while there was some twisting to apply pressure to the limb of an opposing player, this did not exceed the normal range of movement and therefore could not have posed an ‘unacceptable risk of injury’."

    Full minutes out tomorrow.

    However what saints have argued and your photo shows it is that it's quite normal for the arm to go there, I'm sure everyone can put their arm in that position.

    I mentioned the other day - it's not a typical chicken wing - where pressure is put on the joint

    In fairness, still images can be used to support both arguments. The minutes will be interesting. I’d like to see yesterday’s too.

    I put my own arm further up my back when I'm bloody scratching it

    I think that image supports my perspective more than yours to be fair. I do agree about the disciplinary process needing a complete overhaul, I feel the refs this season have been more consistent than the disciplinary.

    Look daft thing for Knowles to do, was trying to prevent quick ptb, was it worth 2 matches? Course it wasn't..
    Saints appealed, failed. Clearly the rules allow another appeal and they must've brought fresh evidence or argument and won.
    Can't blame Saints! Show me another Club who wouldn't have done the same.
    At least the MRP had the guts to admit they'd made a mistake.
    Just wondering who's arm we had to twist to get the decision over the line? Tee hee
