Please excuse me if I am wrong,but I thought that Mossop when he was cited for punching and entered an early guilty plea that this autamatically carried a minimum of a one match ban.

I posted earlier today that in hindsight he may have been better to let his previous disciplinary record be taken into consideration and throw himself at the mercy of the commitee.There may have been a chance that he may have got off with sending off sufficent.

My thoughts where based on the fact that Tuson threw several punches and got one match,whilst Mossop only threw one.

If I am misunderstanding the situation I apolagise.

sendinf off sufficient........may have been okay if Moose had been sent off.....but he didn't......

I'm more concerned about the fact he was charged in the first place for a B grade offence. So in essence throwing ONE punch is now an automatic charge subject to appeal it seems???

P Warrier,I accept what you say,maybe I should have said citing and having to be up at Red Hall was sufficent.

Aye but it was a good un.

Check out the last paragraph of Lee Mossop's bio on wikipedia

Lee "Sugar Ray" Mossop.



from wiki........classic........lol





On 27 May 2012 he destroyed St Helens forward and cheap shot merchant Shaun Magennis with a single blow with his enormous fist and was subsequently rewarded with a week off. Mossop, also known as the 'Cumbrian Colossus', is now expected to fight both the Klitschko Brothers for the WBO, IBF, IBO, WBC and WBA Heavyweight titles.[5

I am sorry but Hock is an idiot and head case who is costing this team! When he just focuses on his game he is a great asset. We had that game well and truly won, the Saints player was being petulant because the game had gone away. Hock should have just ignored the provocation and laughed in the players face. Hocks lack of discipline now means we are a weaker side going into two big games, as his actions caused the knock banning of other players. With his issues in the past, I would have hoped he would be more professional on the field. He doesn't have to prove what a man he is by getting into fights - all he needs to do is be the player he is capable of - that is the best way to respond. Now I fear the rest of SL will target his idiotic temper, to get him banned in other games, along with the penalties that go with it. Frankly Wigan should be tearing a strip off of him, and telling him to grow up. Also I think he owes it to younger kids who are watching the game, that there are better ways to react to poor sportsmanship. Sorry but I have lost any respect I had left over for the guy.

Dont be so bl00dy soft.



He chinned a saints mon.



He should have got the freedom of the town.



why is Lee Mossop excluded from your criticism?

'slightly' ott

Not being soft at all! Prove your hardness on the field of play where it counts. It was pointless getting into a fight at the point of the game and has now cost us dearly for the next two games. As for Mossop, I thought he was standing up for Tuson after the Saint's players dirty play - that I have some sympathy with - the same with Tuson. Besides I don't watch rugby league for the fighting - there are plenty of pubs I can to for that.
