| Quote: Once were Loiners "I wouldn't have had a huge issue if Knowles hadn't been banned in the first place - I think some of the reaction to the actual tackle has been a bit hysterical. The idea that Knowles actually had some concept of a 'police hold' while in the process of just trying to delay a PTB is hyperbolic nonsense. It also wasn't anything like a chicken wing, no matter how many times its called that.
The appeal process, however, has been a farce and brought the whole process into disrepute (if more were needed after the ridiculous banathon this year). Utterly ridiculous that they even heard a second appeal after an unsuccessful one.
For me Welsby's was worse, and the sort of tackle the sport needs to get rid of. Hits to the head are not acceptable any more. Calling it a 'great tackle' is stupid. Just as shoulder charges were considered by some to be great tackles when they were nothing of the sort. Uncontrolled tackles like that will lead to injuries as often as they don't.
Regardless, I hope this episode leads to the MRP being completely reset for next season. I'd frankly be stunned if it wasn't.'"
Nothing what's soever wrong with the Welsby tackle if Sky hadn't have kept going on about it it would have been forgotten by now |

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.:1157.jpg |

Why is it mad? I could fall flat on my and be fine but my feet could be above my head. If you think it's mad, probably best to explain why, or, well, you look mad? |

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

I think in terms of tackling technic there will be many more occasions where the hips are above the head.
If a players legs are on the ground you can't physically spear or tip tackle them.
Lifting the legs is where the issue comes I. As it maybe fine bit it can easily go wrong as other players in the tackle and the tackled player themselves cant then control the tackle with forces moving in many different directions.
I think the refs have a duty here as if motion is stopped, the call for held should be quicker.
There are many times were the motion is stopped and whilst the players continue to wrestle no held is called, resulting in very late offloading or tacklers continuing to wrestle or lift in an attempt to complete the tackle.
For me if forward motion is stopped then that should be held.

| Quote: Saddened! "Lomax got smashed a few times, he took the ball in a lot. He's going to get injured, but yes, being clever and knowing when to stay down is a sport-wide problem, not specific to any one player or team. He didn't do that in the Martin incident though, he got hammered there, he's going to need a moment to collect his thoughts after that isn't he.
What Makinson did was a bit of a weird one I agree, but it's not dangerous. I'm sure there was no attempt to detach it. ![]()
Unbelievable. You must be the number one apologist on this forum.

I found the whole day disappointing. no atmosphere outside, no act on before the start.
I found it all subdued compared to every other time I've been
