Don’t know if anyone heard James on Merseyside this afternoon, he said he thought Featherstone had 14 players on the field for one of their tries.
If this is found out to be the case, what punishment do the RL give to Fev, points deduction or fine?

Neither - it would only embarrass the RFL pitch side officials whose job is to stop this happening - and we can't have that!
It'd only be a fine, or a suspended fine, if proven to be the case. It mattered very little in the grand scheme of things, and was only for a very short period.
I would be more concerned about the Officials missing the 5 yards forward pass at 18-0. That killed us, and the floodgates opened. The Ref was running 2/3 yds behind the the try scorer, and looked to the TJ to confirm the forward. The said TJ then went all giddy, as if he was listening to one of Flash's podcasts. Ref gave the try.
When your luck's out, I suppose.
