Saints fined 10 grand, when according to the St Helens reporter today,
they provided both medical certs and video evidence of all injuries.

Who exactly on the comitee of the RL, is qualified to argue with a
doctors opinion. Or, are they saying the doctor lied.

Good job its not the states !!!

Maybe it does seem unfair on Saints to be fined for fielding an extremely
weakened side against Wigan in a match they didn't care about, but the
medical certificates don't really mean much. Nobody could believe that
they wouldn't have fielded a much stronger side if they had been in with
a chance of the Championship. I thhink that they got off lightly with a
fine of 10,000 pounds, especially as they only have to pay half, with the
other half suspended.  Ironically they needn't have bothered saving their
best players for the Warrington semi-final - they could have won that game
fielding their tea-ladies.

OK. You get flu, the doctor gives you a note for a week, first day
back, the boss sacks you, doesn't believe you. How do you feel then ?

I Know it was a load off bull, what I am asking is who is qualified to
question medical opinion on the panel ?

Come on, if they'd asked me I could have got em all doctor's notes. If
it had been the Regal semi on Boxing Day they wouldn't have played that
team and I think we all know it.
