“Game is on its arse if that’s a one match ban” – how social media reacted to the RFL disciplinary charges

Liam Watts (8) of Castleford Tigers goes over for a try to make it 12-10

The disciplinary charges given out each week by the RFL always provoke a reaction from fans amongst social media. But, that reaction was even stronger after the Challenge Cup quarter-final. Here are the best quotes.

It’s fair to say that Castleford’s Liam Watts was far from impressed with his one-game ban for a late hit on Salford’s Elijah Taylor.

A Castleford fan agreed completely with Watts.

Another Castleford fan was even less impressed with the RFL’s inconsistency concerning other indiscretions during that fixture.

Even former player Ryan Boyle noted the inconsistency.

A different Castleford fan compared Watts’ indiscretion to one made a week ago in a fixture against the same team.

Another Tigers supporter didn’t exactly wax lyrical about the decision either.

Another fan called on Castleford to appeal the decision.

The news even united Wakefield and Castleford fans.
