Quote: rollin thunder "Totally agree when a rugby game broke out they where hanging on for their lifes. In was out right thuggery from Wigan at times. I thought spear tackles are a straight red after the McKinnon incident, now it's ok to bottle it and go on report again'"
I knew this thread was coming, as you can never take losing to us.
My friend, there was no spear tackle, the referee's exact words were 'I know you put him on his back, the penalty if for lifting into a dangerous position'. That is why there was no red card, because no spear tackle occurred.
No thuggery, no cheating, you just got outplayed, deal with it.
McIlorum shouldn't have gone into the sin bin, it was just a standard high shot, worthy of a penalty, nothing more, and he was talking to Thaler when the fight broke out.
