Cool. That's all I was trying to say (he wouldn't have intended causing a serious injury). Dane will get the punishment he deserves when it's reviewed.

In the meantime (again), hopefully it's not as serious as feared and Sam makes a speedy recovery.

Agree. As for the rest of the match, it was a good game, hard and aggressive at times, both ways too but nothing that bad. Shame it seems that one incident is overshadowing everything else

One but he did would be enough.
For goodness sake what a stupid post.

Isn't the point of a tackle in Rugby League to not only halt play but to hurt someone?
Surely Paul Rowley doesn't say to his players "tackle, but be gentle"
As I say go to bed, chill out and enjoy your game of "touch rugby at school tomorrow"

But you started the "incident"
Read back.

That incident started when Barlow was taken late of the ball. It flared up after that. No hit on Barlow, no incident.

At the end of the day Sam was the best player on the pitch by a mile in the first half, he wasn't put in hospital on purpose don't get me wrong but ball in hand your forwards couldn't get near him.

Hang on a minute, are you saying that no one is allowed to "hit" Sam?
Does Paul Rowley (great coach) say "If Sam gets it start a fight?"

Agree, Sam had a great first half, he is a quality player.
Don't want to fall out with my Leyther friends, but to give Sam man of the match "great first half" undermined
the rest of the team who played a full 80 mins.
Good luck Sam

HJ you are talking sheeeite that tonight was cowardly

Come on folk that hit on Sam was awful and the player who did it will have trouble sleeping tonight.

He will be feeling it much more than any of us fans.

Lets hope Sam pulls through.

I will say again you did not see the tackle.


Which thread can I post my 'we need to get rid of KH as soon as possible' comment?

You can't have seen it either because you keep calling it a tackle

Hi Greg, I was sat above the Dug outs and I saw the assault, this game is tough enough without cowards taking freebies

Think I called it a very very late tackle where as you are spouting crap trying to gain some sort of morale high ground but coming off looking like a cock.
