I expect "The Wizz" will get cited for his elbow on Bolton on Saturday night. Does anyone know how many points he has in credit from previous visits to the tribunal? I have a sinking feeling he may get 4 to 6? I hope I am wrong.

Well whatever he gets he deserves and he wont be any loss the side but it could be a case of double jeopardy because it's probable that he'll be replaced by Medhurst.
 
Looked pretty average and I think he will go for a while. I said the same thing about Headland though:confused:

If you break it down - worst case is Intentional, High Contact, Behind Play, Medium Impact ... Level 5 offence for striking ... 425 points ... 4 weeks. Ignoring pleas/past records. Maybe they can argue its reckless or in-play (the ball was sort of in the vicinity) or even low impact, which could get it down to ~2-3 weeks. The Wiz had an absolute shocker.

I'll quote myself to say I have no idea, sort of. All the "arguments" were what the tribunal actually came up with. He can think himself very lucky. How someone like Lovett gets 3 for a jumper punch, but Wiz getz one for a blatant elbow I do not understand.

Had a quick look at "another" site and it appears that Farmer was a victim of a vendetta, that if it wasn't replayed a few times on TV he never would have got cited and that if it was anyone except Jeff then no penalty would have been given.

After I picked myself off the floor and composed myself I realised they were serious.

No eyes for the ball, raised elbow and high contact, ( forget all the tribunal points crap), it was worth at least 2-3 weeks.

Farmer was lucky, really lucky..
