There’s no speculation in my comment, his position, opinion and view have been deemed to be wrong while the opposing view is deemed right! In the posts I’ve seen he isn’t using extreme language and he isn’t threatening in any way, had he crossed a line on those fronts I’d agree with some form of warning or sanction but he didn’t. The issue here is a societal one, why can he not hold and express his opinion when others holding the opposing opinion, also deemed offensive and damaging by some, can express theirs? If he were to tweet pro trans stuff would he be equally as guilty?

Did he have much choice?

Maybe there’s are people who find his views normal and the opposing view offensive? The point is, why is one view protected while the other is is not!

Without the risk of getting into trouble myself in 13 years time it’s hard to say exactly He uses the first name of the famous ‘magic dragon who lived by the sea’ He also objects to the way Sam Smith dresses nowerdays and doesn’t agree with men saying they’re women adopting babies then pretending they’re in a Labour ward having just given birth so they can have photos for their album Hope thats OK

I’ve just seen a screen grab of 3 Tweets from 2024 and if they are what’s been used to justify a ban then it’s still harsh from the RFL! The 3 Tweets I’ve seen are his views on a certain aspect of life and while not palatable to some they’re his views and he’s entitled to hold them. The language he uses is not extreme or threatening, in fact it’s mild to say the least. His opinion on the subject he refers to is as valid as those who hold the opposing view yet while others can express their view Gregson is told he can’t. Maybe there’s more than what I’ve seen but I can’t find any others so I’m not sure others would either

Inside Trinity Episode 6 - Huddersfield - Challenge Cup

Nick Gregson has been banned for 8 games (5 suspended) for historic posts dated back to 2012! I know nothing of the posts and their content so I’m not commenting on them. However, Gregson is 29 now and the posts were in 2012 when he was just 16 years old and not even a Professional Player. As I said I don’t know the content of the posts but on the face of it this seems like a big over reach by the RFL disciplinary https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/articles/c98425j22g7o

Only if he proves himself to be! If he can’t force his way into the starting 17 then he becomes a squad player, a good one but a squad player all the same looks like he’ll get his chance in 5 days time

Air Johnstone in again 12 - 22

Tom Johnstone in at the corner 12 - 18

Hood goes in for a short range try 12-12

Huddersfield have done well after that first 15 minute onslaught from Trinity! A couple of loose end of set plays, losing Jowitt and the disruption in the Wakefield line up has let the Giants take the ascendancy Hudds in again 12 - 6

Scored his 23rd try in 24 appearances for the Roosters

Inside Trinity Episode 5 - Warrington

Tight game, but I’ll go Trinity 26 - 12

I think we did, about 75 years ago

Wakefield have always done their best in terms of youth development. There has always been a decent number of graduates of Trinity’s Academy littered throughout the game including SL, more than you might expect and we’ve punched above our weight in that respect. Matt Ellis has already invested heavily in all levels of the Rugby at Wakefield, obviously 1st team but Academy, Scholarship, PDRL, Women & Girls. The Community department has also been improved immensely and it was in a good place already. Wakefield Trinity are now searching high and low for suitable land upon which they will build a brand new training facility and Youth Academy Centre. The club is advancing on all fronts, Stadia, Coaching staff, Recruitment, Commercial, Hospitality, Media and so on. . . .

I think as Matt Ellis tours the opposition stadia during our away matches, stadiums like Warringtons, Sts & Leigh will just fuel his ambitions for Wakefield

Thats brilliant, they must love the game while we moan about parking, video refs and toilet lights

Whatever the internal politics and wranglings of Warrington Wolves they got soundly outplayed by Wakefield today! Whilst there was some competition in the first 20 minutes it was the Wakefield Trinity pack that came out well on top. Just too big, too strong and also a bit too mobile. I’ll throw in that they handled the ball better as well as the Matty Russell try shows with Atoni and Vangana both showing good hands and awareness. Once on top it was typical Powell expansive play that got Trinity on the outside of Wires defence over and over. Trying to play expansive doesn’t work unless you’ve earned the right by winning the middle and then you need hard working edge players to unselfishly run lines so that the half backs can play out the back and test edge defences. Wakefield are doing that really well and it’s a superb team effort that making it happen. Wakefield are still without 5 genuine starters so they’re proving to have some depth of quality and talent in the squad.

I think we emphatically got the answer to that

Leeds A HKR H Sts H Warrington A Thats a difficult start and 2 wins from 4 while being tough and competitive in every game is a pretty decent return
