I think you've got your fixtures mixed up as we've got Wigan away up next

It's conveniently "not fit for purpose" whenever a decision is made that you don't agree with.

And I wonder what would be said on here if Shaun Wane had said what Cunningham had said. No doubt he'd be guilty of trying to influence the panel while Cunningham is a poor victim.

St.Helens Chairman Eamonn McManus stated:

"We very much wished to appeal both decisions but the appeal hearing was set for a Thursday evening, being the night before our game, instead of the normal Wednesday evening. Clearly our coach had to choose and train with his final team today and not on match day. Also it is ridiculous to expect two players to do another five hour round trip to Red Hall the night before a crucial game in which they may be playing. We effectively had no choice but to not exercise our right to appeal. I cannot ever recall such a set of circumstances and it is totally unsatisfactory.

We consider the Luke Walsh punishment of a yellow card plus a two match ban for a dangerous throw to be completely at odds with directly comparable or worse instances in recent weeks. Yet again we are faced with inexplicable inconsistency which is eroding trust and respect for the system to breaking point.

The Luke Thompson two week ban for "secondary contact", albeit accidental, has left the entire game perplexed. The "primary contact" was actually an illegal leading elbow from Justin Horo who was then unfortunately accidentally injured, as was Luke Thompson. Most importantly, this new concept of secondary contact (which was wrongly applied in this instance) will undoubtedly open up a Pandora's Box of collateral incident which, if applied consistently, will result in a whole slew of match bans from accidental contact.

We have now lost two of our key and form players to the biggest games of the season against Wigan and Hull in the Super Eights.

Conversely, clear attempts at eye gouging on our players in consecutive weeks have been ignored by the authorities.

I have been a lifetime avid supporter of rugby league due mainly to the clarity and simplicity of its rules and the resultant speed, intensity and skill which that framework produces on the field of play. That is what has always positively differentiated rugby league from other competitor sports. However, the guidelines and interpretations of those rules have become incomprehensible to most, and the game resultantly less enjoyable to view. The problem is accentuated by a dysfunctional and erratic disciplinary system. I have made too many representations to this effect to the governing body but to absolutely no avail."

Saints have amended their 19 man squad for Friday's game to include both Theo Fages and Oliver Davies.

to answer the posters question, Wigan.

Cunningham out

In no particular order.
