I should think so.

I firmly believe that offences relating to 'touching' referees have to have an element of malicious intent - shoving, grabbing and the unthinkable violence of hitting - but just talking to a ref whilst being a tad tactile isn't something that, IMO, deserves further action.

For God's sake, neither the ref nor the players are robots and should be able to interact as human beings providing there's no malicious intent. I've yet to see any player take the John Hopoata (sp?) approach.

I've just watched the game again today, and how Grix wasn't charged makes the mind boggle He knew the ref was in his path , he was looking straight at him, It was very similar to the Widnes player. For me the people looking at these incidents are a joke.

Surprised nobody has commented on Luke's personal performances the last 2 games, anyone else think he been below pat? Before I am lambasted for daring to suggest such a thing just bear in mind the high standard he has been at is why I have noticed he has dropped off

I honestly think the players are tired. To keep up with the type of play we have been at for 10 weeks it gets tough. Hopefully 6 days rest will be enough.

You cant be on top form all time if you look at wigan last year they were scratchy a lot of season but turned it on when it mattered we will lose some but if we get into big matches at end of season my money would still be on this cas team

If he's "below pat" I'm not surprised he's struggling if he's got to her to carry...

Realistically it is difficult for any player, no matter how good or bad, to play at their very best every game and I too suspect we've noticed Gale's slight dip in form even more due to the quality he's delivered so far this season. Interestingly the League Express reporter gave Gale the maximum 3pts for the MOM/Albert Goldthorpe medal thingy-me-bob so he must have played OK even if he wasn't at his best.

Opinions...

Doesnt matter anyway. Even if he didnt use it, he no longer can use it anyway.

Agree with that. I wonder why you can't carry them over though?

Do it once they give you benefit of doibt and offer EGP. On your second offense you should have learnt your lesson so its no longer possible to use.

But what happens if you don't use it because you were not found guilty of an offence, surely you can still use it at a later date?

If the RL offer an early guilty plea, guilt is established. You cannot be found not guilty of something you admit guilt to. He was guilty of touching the ref, we all saw it. No further action means it's done with. If they had thought he was not guilty, then "no charge" would have appeared, not Grade A.
