Thats me done with this once great game. I used to love RL but the game is all and done, i switch off lots of games already as the general standard is getting worse, penalties are soft, the bans ludicrous. A player gets almost the same length of ban for verbal abuse as someone only a few years ago that knocks a player out, punches him again when he's on the deck unconcious and finishing his career. 4 game ban for a tug on the shirt. I'm done. All the best.

Be careful I got a 72 hour ban when they were trialing this new site couple of months back for complaining how bad it is.
I've just seen this and wasn't aware. There's obviously been/still are some glitches, but think the end product will be better.
I suppose one thing we can celebrate about our pack being so nice is that we are currently doing very well on the disciplinary front. It's probably the opposite scenario to what you'd expect for a team coached by Sam Burgess.
I'm amazed Harry Smith didn't get punished for taking off that Hudds players head. 2 mins in https://youtu.be/EyLV2B3PsFE?t=128 Not even a penalty. Last year it would have been "it's with force, there is no mitigation, you're off". That's why the RFL is a joke.
