    Did they do bans in those days? I can remember back to around the Arkwright/Pinner days and I don't remember ever worrying that players would be out. Or did you just have to commit attempted murder in those days to cop a ban?

    Usually only one or two games.

    First time I remember a player getting long ban was when they first decided to clamp down on high tackles and Shane Cooper got 6 matches

    After the incident I mentioned, Mills was banned for the rest of the season. I think that the ban was overturned 3-4 months later. The NZ RL banned him for life, and that ban stayed in place.
