Chris22 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 If I was a player suspended for discrimatory language, I'd want to know why I was banned, yet the CEO of the RFL should be 'educated'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have stopped working (well dramatically slowed down) but I have not told my employer yet. What's that new phrase, quiet quitting, well I am quiet retiring. Just still getting paid.

Phil W Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Shocking from the RFL. I've tweeted Jon Dutton asking that Ralph Rimmer is kept well as way from the World Cup, seen as The RFL can't do what's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jughead Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 No sanctions?! I know as rugby league fans we can be quite knee jerk and reactionary but that’s shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 As he was leaving anyway it was so easy just to part company with him now instead of the end of the year, keeping him on during this tournament keeps the focus on him. Not sure it’s the right move 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lad Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 The joke was stupid and not needed. It has cast a shadow on the lead up to the world cup but not on the competition itself, it will sink or swim on it's own merit. It's funny how the top brass have apparently acted, seems to show a distinction between the people who play the game v the people who run it as a player who acted in that manner would be dealt with swiftly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
