Suspected broken cheekbone. He was definitely caught late, whether it was a clash of heads, a legal or illegal challenge I couldn't honestly say. It's on report so we'll all know soon enough. Fingers crossed for the little fella.

Must have been a proper hit to put him out of the game . Have seen him take some really nasty looking hits over the years , and he (nearly) always gets back on his feet and continues .

It was late and silverw##k ignored it the co##.

BM said something like they don't think it's broken but wouldn't be surprised if it was. On first look, it appeared to be a late shot. (Shoulder into his face.)

Would have to see it again to confirm that though!

You're right, the bloke is a proper tool. Let play continue for a good minute or so and only appeared to put it on report when he got a look at Robbies face as he was layed on the deck.

Shocking call from the linesman aswell who also ignored it the pass had gone and he got hit it was late and on his blindside aswell.

Anyone remember the hit FGB put on Burrow about 4 or 5 yrs ago at HQ ?
I didn't think he would ever wake up from it . What did he do ? Got up and played on .
Toughest man in Super League ( in the 'vertically challenged' category )

A slightly different view of the hit on Robbie being taken on the Wakey forum in the player run down thread. Sir Kev seems to have annoyed a few also.

"Been waiting years for that hit on Burrow."

Some very sad and bitter people on the Wakefield board. Very strange to see that some of them think they were harshly done to by Silverwood. Which is bizarre considering the amount of holding down, offside & not square at marker that Wakefield were allowed to get away with.

With that in mind, the back end of this interview is worth listening to: www.therhinos.co.uk/news/19102.php

McDermott sounds ruined. He's right though.

The guy is a tough un and nobody is more brave ...it's just surprising he hasn't suffered like this before. Hope he recovers soon; he will be badly missed at the moment.
