My biggest concern about the Panel is its inconsistency. Dudson should have got more than McGuire or was the "level" of punch taken jnto account. Fans see things which go unpunished and some of the Panel's comments about incidents confuse to say the least. No easy answers but the panel has gone too far in banning players for minor offences perhaps to justify its existence.
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.
