Reynolds was suspended for 2 games & Applebee 3 games.

Just curious, where did you get this information? It may help my own research.

It is from reading all the match reports of the microfilm of the Daily Mirror, Daily Telegraph, The Sun, Sydney Morning Herald, The Australian at the State Library in Sydney. As well as going through Rugby League Week. I do also go through Big League in the years they had more information. I do go through the Rugby League News. Even though some years that was not a huge amount of information on club games. Even though they do tell you some things that other publications do not tell you. While this particular game was not a Saturday game. I do also look at the microfilm of the Sunday Telegraph, Sunday Mirror and Sun-Herald if the game was a Saturday game at the State Library as well. While this is 1970. I did also discover a while back. That the Australian had a Sunday Paper in 1971 and 1972 as well. I do also watch old games that come up on YouTube. Even though I have not seen any from 1970 come up.
