I put a bet on at the beginning of the year that we'd make top 6 and I'm still confident.
These games will go a long way to making that happen but I don't think we should fear anyone. Even with a depleted side.

It's a pretty clear rule and there to protect players.
Usually get a ban for it.
Pretty silly considering this was his first day back for a while.

It got down-graded to a Grade A ,which he pleaded guilty to and got 1 point, whereas Liam Horne was found guilty as charged and has got a 6 match ban !!! Liam Horne: Castleford Tigers hooker suspended for six games - BBC Sport

I need to look at that again then. The only way it gets changed to an A is if he didn't actually touch him.


I've no problem with Horne getting his. Partly because he did it and partly because it's triggered the Cas fans saying the RFL are out to get them.

The A is for the head contact, the E was 'not proven' on the report, not 'not guilty' - his story was convincing.

I'm not sure how it was not proven,  I watched it at the time and there's a small video of the incident when it came out. and it's blatant that he laid hands on a downed Jowitt, can't see what he can say in defence tbh. Then again Hull KR got that Prop off for spitting the other week didn't they, when it was caught on video? 
Some people on socials couldn't see what he did wrong and even accused Max of faking injury, which is ridiculous, especially after last week when he had his nose split open at the start of the game after a big hit to the face that went unpunished and got up and played the ball, but so many fans don't know the rules that when a player goes down, you don't lay a finger on them, no matter what they believe. This incident on appearance is on the less serious side of things but the fact is Martin did tug on Max's jersey when he was face down after the hit, to encourage him to get up, they usually get a ban, no debate.
