I think I'm struggling to see where they were unprofessional. They made an initial decision. This decision was appealed against by Salford. The appeal was heard, dismissed and a revised punishment was given. Sounds quite professional to me and is the kind of thing that regularly happens in relation to player bans where they appeal against a decision, only to have an extra game added to the ban because they appealed. Timing wise its not great I agree but it has to come out sometimes

I dont understand your criticism of the RFL in this. They would have had an option of docking points originally and decided against it and instead imposed a fine. Salford then appealed against the fine, at which point the RFL decide that having appealed against what many thought may have been a lenient decision, they will dock them two points. Seems fair to me.

@rlmeltdown should just sponsor the RFL page for that hour, would save a lot of work!
