so he got away with it basicaly, any other player would have got at least a one match ban but of course the wonderful sam has to play this coming week-end, or who would Stevo and Eddie have to talk about (all the time)

Nope, that was a Wigan internal disiplinary, the RFL may still decide to sanction him.



edit, although looking at the rflwebsite it appears they haven't (yet at least)

Which bit of: [i"[uThe RFL has found Sam Tomkins of Wigan Warriors guilty[/u of minor misconduct following his obscene gesture"[/i



are you struggling with?

I did think it was the RFL. Why has it been delayed until next season? don't understand that. Surely it should be immediate.

because he's never ever done anything naughty before, ever.



£1000, a joke, Lenegan would pay it anyway.

It's a suspended fine. If he breaches before the end of next season, the fine is triggered.

So, do you also believe that Lenagan has also paid the fine that Lenagan has levied on Tomkins?

I very much doubt any money has changed hands, I would imagine it's a case of "being seen to do the right thing" rather than any real remorse on behalf of Wigan.

Becuase on the original BBC report it said Wigan had sanctioned him and the RFL were still considering looking into it.



So, not struggling with anything, thanks for your concern.

Am I correct in saying that suspended fines are like suspended sentences. You dont do/pay them unless you are found guilty of another offence during the suspension?

Correct

yes, same as an element of the McAlpine fine was for us.
