what is the problem with the technique,
just cos we win, and we are dominating the game again, we get slated for doing nothing illegal, dont add up,
how about people grow up and worry about their teams attacking, and try n figure a way around our technique rather than trying to figure out a rule that will stop us winning, god its getting like f1

Sorry mate...but your absolutely clueless!!

A tackling technique (legal or illegal) that brings increased risk of injury to players is not something that the opponent can 'Figure a way or technique around!!'. The rules of the game, and the referee are there to prevent this and the sooner they 'outlaw' the technique we saw last night, the better our game will be.

The reason that RL fans and community stand and clap any player who leaves the field injured is due to our respect for the game they bring to us on the field. No-one wants to see an increased risk of players getting injured on either side!

Best wishes to the lad - ignoring his constant chebbing at the ref, he seems like a decent kid and certainly puts in the work; reminds me a bit of James Graham.

The Wigan dodgy tackle technique does seem to have been ramped up - it was more in evidence last night than I recall in recent weeks.

im clueless?
how?
u havent given one shred of legitimate evidence that there is a problem with out technique,
he plays rugby, people get hurt,
we have hock go off after being studded in the groin by your players, yet we havent kicked up a fuss about that,
unless there is legitimate proof and evidence that we are intentionally hurting people, and its not sure sour grapes, cos this only happens once we win, after your draw with us you didnt moan about anything,

Knee ligament damage apparently, will be out for a while

poor fella has my sympathys, currently recovering myself

Wake up!!!

There are posts on various team forums, which clearly describe the technique and the concerns that go with it way in advance of last nights game.

Are we all wrong??

So again 'wake up' it's not a reaction to the game, it's a foresight of what is going to happen if it is allowed to continue. Or shall we wait until it does and then voice our concerns??

If....and I do say if!!, Hock was studded in the groin it is one singular incident, but not an intentional technique, which makes it an entirely different matter.

sour grapes,
grow up

What a Pathetic, unconstructive response!!!

yeah, giving it the respect it deserves,
no1 has given any evidence that there is a problem, jsut a bunch of moaning.
so unless you have evidence i suggest this thread gets shut down before it becomes Slanderous against the wigan club

Pull your head out of your butt cheaks and read!!! My concerns....(not moans).... are for the safety of players in our game.....of any team....of any age!!! Comprende' amigos!

non comprende....this is rugby league, its never been as safe.

Watch the match from last night and look at the tackle on Ferres I think in the second half, where Lima and another player (cant remember who) pulled Ferres backwards over his own legs, Luckily they didnt get stuck because that could have been very nasty.

Watch that and come back on here and tell me that wasnt intentionally trying to injure a player in the tackle. I am not saying last nights match was riddled with it because it wasnt, but this was a good example of what people are talking about.

Funnily enough Lima always seems to be in the mix when it happens.

that kind of tackle happens all the time....I know what you mean as at the time I said it could have been an injury. Doesnt make it intentional.
