johnh1 988 Posted June 15 Report Share Posted June 15 (edited) From the Disciplinary Details of Charge / Reason for NFA: Player steals ball when player breaks line. Sin bin sufficient. Since when was that a penalty, let alone a sin bin? They even got the player’s name wrong. Edited June 15 by johnh1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'd assume the ball was stolen after the tackle was complete to prevent advantage from the break which is, as stated in the minutes, a 'professional foul' punishment for which is a sin-binning. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Man of Kent 8,444 Posted June 15 Report Share Posted June 15 I assume that was Chris Atkin (!) It was deemed as a professional foul for reefing the ball after the tackle was complete (while Salford was retreating after a breakaway move by KR). Link to post Share on other sites

DavidM 11,667 Posted June 16 Report Share Posted June 16 I thought this thread might be a deep and meaningful reflection on the meaning of life … but no it’s about a player stealing the ball 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It was a professional foul to allow the defending team to get back on side.. I vaguely remeber from my childhood at the early 90s world cup australia player did similar and got sin binned (after a GB break) a 1uick play the ball and GB would have won the semi.. Yellow card for at least the last 30 years.. Link to post Share on other sites
