burgess was a clear professional foul, no need for him to go into the tackle

anyway, we'll take the result, seeing as we didnt deserve it and let the sky commentators blow smoke up your s about how good you are etc etc

I would say it was more a card for holding Field down so that your defence had time to set up, which is ironic because if he had let Field get up and play the ball he would have had nobody to play it to.

Let's not pretend that our own clubs are golden child's and have not done exactly the same thing that Dupree is being accused of. We have been on the wrong side of it many times this season it is a case of if you can't beat them, join them unfortunately. Still, as you say, doesn't change the fact that the correct decision was made on the night.

The Forber incident is another contentious one. In my opinion, a potential "late" hit should never be watched in slow motion as there is no way you can get a true reflection on that players ability to pull out of a challenge. In fact, i would go as far as to say that it should be written into the laws of the game that a potential "late" hit should never be watched in slow motion unless there is suspicion of another misdemeanor. In the Forber one, they ONLY showed replays in slow motion, and even at that speed he has less than 1 second to pull out of the challenge, meaning he had significantly less time at full speed. Players have to be able to properly challenge a kicker otherwise where will the pressure on said kicker come from? Calling something like that a late hit is a dangerous precedent to set, if you can't put genuine pressure onto a kicker then anybody who is perceived to be kicking a ball becomes untouchable. Let's see how well that one plays out.

The fact that KR (and fans from other clubs) are still upset by this and complaining 1 week later is frankly embarrassing and a serious case a rose-tinted glasses.

Good luck tonight Leeds, looking forward to what should hopefully be a hard fought contest.

Shows how much Miller has improved that he's now considered a big loss.

Tbh ill be happy with a good performance even if we lose.
Just don't want to see us collapse into panic mode and get nilled

Yes let`s put in a performance and don`t fold like Hull last week.
Hate to say it as I hate losing but a 16/18 point loss and plenty of effort is all I can ask tonight.
Just shows how we are these days I suppose.

There were 2 far worse examples in the Saints game the following day and no one seems to be commenting. Go figure! Also, as said above, the KR fans seemed to be ok about it when it resulted in a Wigan player being sent off in the CC semi. Again, go figure! Lastly, I don't see anything about Leeming getting sin binned the week before against Catalans for a tackle the ref can be heard admitting was neither late nor high. One last go figure!

Anyway, safe travels to the Leeds fans coming over tonight.

1 new forward will not be enough…

Class start

Dire start! Game over in 7 minutes

Wigan’s pack is massacring ours, and we’ve only got a number 10 off a first choice group

Unsure how Wigan are allowed to move 2 or 3 steps off the mark every tackle though

I cannot believe that Paul Momirovski has played for so many NRL clubs. He is awful.

Bentley has been good. But we have been bullied. Look really disconnected defensively on either edge too.

Well worked try but the last pass would grace the NFL.

Wigan are light years ahead of us physically. I really hope we're looking to pay off momirovski and sangare they're awful.

Brad will get into our boys at half time, season on the line here!! Big 40 mins coming up, we can do this!!
