Grade B - for the chicken wing tackle on Eorl Crabtree

1-2 game ban tariff

and deserved

Quote [Gareth="[Gareth"and deserved'" True, but I wonder if this had any influence. It happened just before Powells tackle. www.therfl.co.uk/the-rfl/disciplinary/item?5915

Silly boy. It wasn't even subtle. Regardless of whether it was in retaliation for Crabtree's hit on Farrell we don't need that nonsense.
I notice Hock's been at it again though. 2 separate charges - do they add them together or run concurrently?

Deserved, yep, but he's entitled to EGP I think.

Yes, so 1 match ban.

Shame for the lad but deserved. To miss out on the WCC last year was a real shame and I'm sure he'd have been looking forward to playing in this but I doubt he'll get the chance now.

If Williams is injured it should be a huge chance for Hampshire to lay a market down.

Wigan are appealing the ban.

It'll serve them right if he gets two games. However if Ben Westwood can get one game for fracturing Blake Greens cheekbone because there was an International match they may go lenient on Powell. Let's see.

Appeal! That is classic.

How is getting a ban for a blatant banned chicken wing tackle a shame for the lad?? He was lucky he wasn't sent off at the time and risk a longer ban!

And an appeal over it is just a joke - what is the defence gonna be?

Fully deserved, we'd be going mad if it was done to one of our players. No excuses
