Silly lad, but a punishment that only lasts during the off-season is mild

It may cost him a fair bit, he will miss most of the pre-season training and (at York's discretion) it may cost him up to 3 months wages as he is banned from the game completely for this period. Didn't know there is a post-registration 12 month embargo on betting.

Stupid rule, why shouldn’t he be allowed to bet on a game not involving him.

Seem to remember our player jc getting 2 year ban for betting a fiver on a win for us at a big game few years ago.

Totally agree Eddie, it is not as though he had any inside information as the report states or he could influence the result anyway is it.

Anyway how does the RL know he placed a wager?

Seems a very minor indiscretion . In fact I’m not sure what he’s done so wrong from reading that article . Seems very harsh
