Quote: DARE "What was the incident with Morrison when he got a talking to from the ref? His first hit on McNally was legal though, couldn't understand why the Leigh fans around us were going nuts, it's rugby after all...'"
Quite correct. Nothing wrong with it.
Morrison hit McNally as hard as he could, even though he could not defend himself. Probably the frustration due to him not being sporting? One hand on the player would have completed the tackle.
Now on the other hand, If I was still playing I would have gladly put the idiot into rowZ the next time he ran the ball in. I am not all for celebratory high 5's and teeth gringing after such an incident, but its the way Morrison is.
Was it legal ? Yes
Was it needed? No.
Is it a pitty Tim Street wasn't on the same pitch ? You betcha !!
