    I imagine Matautia will get more than 8 games as his was a potential crusher tackle and there was a possibility that the huddersfield player had neck or spine damage before he lifted him. In the Halifax players case the possibility of neck or spine damage were miniscule. 

    The following incident should also result in a ban for Fagues as it is impossible for him to know if the Saints player was injured or not so should not have been moving him irelevant of if the Saints player was doing a bit of time wasting. 

    Edit: Theres actually 2 players that should be banned after that incident as the physio had to come on and check the player so he must be obviously injured.........

     

    Whilst I can understand why this has been raised, it is for me where the lines get a little blurred. People are looking for consistency, especially within the same 80 minutes, I don’t know if there has been a crackdown on these situations particularly but there has to be some degree of common sense in there. 
     

    I am not saying that Lussick wasn’t hurt at all, you’ll find plenty of pain in matches like that it’s about when you ignore it or play up to it, but I do think he was laying it on particularly by holding on to the ball to eat up the clock. I thought it was clever of Lussick in that way, some might call it gamesmanship, was he really injured from that particular incident? Who knows? I think not so much. Same with Levi was he really injured? Possibly. You could argue it didn’t look that way but at the time, in my opinion, there is no way Sione knew that, so he made a bad choice to lift a player who was potentially injured. I thought Kendal got both these decisions (and the yellow) right. Who’d be a ref?
