The Tribunal agree with the grading and the player received an 8 match suspension and a £250 fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowdesert Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Who’d have thunk it. A small section of the T&A from last time: “JOHN Kear doesn’t want George Flanagan to change. The battle-hardened hooker is back in action this weekend after serving his lengthy ban. Flanagan has not played since last August when he was suspended for attacking an opponent’s testicles. But the 33-year-old returns to the fray in the Bulls’ Challenge Cup fourth-round clash with amateurs Underbank Rangers. And Kear said: “The reason we signed George Flanagan is because we want him to be George Flanagan.” Well he has been. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulwalker71 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 It's impossible to defend this. You could think that once was a rush of blood, but do this a second time having already been up before the RFL seems like it would have to be either a massive ban or even sine die I think we really should be getting rid - he's not adding anything much to the team anyway, and has clearly got 'issues' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriginalMrC Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 If guilty for the second time he needs to be made an example of. This is one of the worst things you can do on a field and to do it a second time is appalling 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't seen nothing like it,before or since,thank goodness https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/watch-rugby-league-player-take-5449187 I wonder why youth participation numbers are decreasing?

hunsletgreenandgold Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Crossed paths with him a few times when he played at Hunslet - odd little chap. Throw the book at him and hopefully he'll consider retirement. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasginger Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Well having only played amateur, in the 70's and 80's. I wouldn't call myself a dirty player, but if you think grabbing someone by the testicles is terrible, awful, deserves a life ban. Sometimes to stop a dirty player from their tactics, grabbing somebody's testicles, usually gets their attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mumby Magic Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Tbh I DID like him but this and the other footage is well pathetic really. We have Sam Hallas and Thomas Doyle however with Hallas out for 6 weeks aswell he has let himself and the club down. 1 Like poor jokes?
