[QUOTE="Peat, post: 726531, member: 42330"] His most recent ban before this had time added on to reflect his awful disciplinary record. If this ban didn't, then I smell the hand of Lancaster and an impending inclusion after much huffing and puffing. I would love to be wrong on that. He should be nowhere near the squad. He's already somehow got let off being banned on his final warning; the simple truth is that he is incapable of not going over the edge. He is not capable of that level of restraint. He is a disciplinary sanction waiting to happen and England don't need that. I accept he's probably one of our three best hookers at the moment but that says more about the other players than him. I do not agree with the ban. It's basically the same as all the posturing and handbags that go on every other game and to single this one incident out for a ban is horrendously inconsistent. It's another example on why rugby's law enforcement could really use a massive overhaul. But, while common sense says this is idiocy, they are technically correct and it couldn't happen to a more deserving person. Hartley's an idiot for letting himself get in this position... you know, [b]*again*[/b] [/QUOTE]
