The RFL are an absolute disgrace! and it's about time all teams get treated fairly instead of so called big teams like leeds and wigan getting away with murder all the time!

Just very fed up and completely disillusioned with this whole disciplinary process to the point of giving up supporting my team......after 33 years of paying good money.

A player throws a haymaker with the intention of putting a player out and gets 1 game ban others get 2 or 3 games for being careless.

I've been a rugby league fan all of my life but have become increasingly dissolutioned with the sport due to the incompetence of the RFL and match officials. Something has to be done before all fans are driven away from the sport by the idiots in charge!!!

I wrote to the RFL on 1/3/2013 regarding the standards of refereeing, and my fears for the future of the game, in terms of attendances and general disillusionment throughout the spectators of all clubs. I'm still as concerned this season, and not just with the refereeing but with the whole disciplinary process. All we ask for is consistency and transparency.With only 6 rounds of Super League gone so far this season, there have been many examples of inconsistency throughout the disciplinary process, both seen live and in the Sky TV games. The bland ineffective statement from the RFL yesterday dismayed me and did nothing but heighten my fears that the disciplinary process is not transparent, there is inconsistency throughout, and the game is heading towards a crisis!

People running the game are incompetent and this is driving people away from what was once a great game but sadly no more. Once this season is over, i , like many others will walk away from the game and not renew my season pass

Placing players on report should be abolished.In instances of foul play the referee shouid either send a player to the sinbin or dismiss him from the field.It appears that not only referee's are missing foul play/culprits but also the disciplinary panel.it's getting beyond a joke and therefore the panel should be scrapped..

a change is vital for the survival of rugby league as the real are killing the sport dead. By making poor decisions and a regular basis, and penalising players who are inncocent (not penalising though who are doing wrongs)

The level of biasness towards some teams is laughable.

The RFL state that their review panel is the envy of other sports but don't clarify who. Do they mean others have taken the idea on board but then gone on to revamp it? The review panel and how it operates without thorough investigation is indicative of whats wrong with our great game its the closed attitudes of those at the top running the game for the minority not the majority

Someone needs to step up and admit that the game is in the dark ages , run by people sat behind a desk pushing pens . The level of inconsistency is a disgrace with regard tithe disciplinary process . But let's start making the refs and linesmen make more Descisions at the time of the incident rather than the " on report " cop out which does not benefit the team who could have a player taken off injured due to the indescresion of a player during that game .
