having seen the tackle, i thought wait a moment i remember seeing exactly the same thing in a match not long ago. so i got out my dvd and scanned the game for the same incident. it did not take me long to find it and it was horrible, absolutely horrible. the tackled player lasted about another 5 mins before he went off and did not take any further part in the game.

just to let you all know who the player was, it was ryan hoffman and which players took great delight in attempting to seriously injure him, well none other than three cleaner than clean little angels from the saintly team of st.helens.

just goes to show that saints have some dirty barstewards who go out to seriously injure there opponents.

maybe unbiased (Although I'm not 100% sure on that) but most certainly incompetent. Its clear to see for anyone with eyes that Lima is twisting his bl00dy ankle.

Dont forget Wello almost getting decapitated on his own line and then just to rub it in Bentham gave a drop out.

Wigans tactics over the last couple of years have been despicable , personally I hope he falls flat on his face at Souths

How many players have actually been injured by any of our tackling techniques/Special moves? If our players really wanted to snap other players arms legs etc like some of you claim then surely they would just do it? Its not hard when a guy is on the floor is it?

If they did it more openly you'd have more than Cokehead psycho Steptoe banned for the year. Snide dirty cheap and cowardly tactics like knee's in and 'accidental' twisting of joints is more your former coach's style

Apart from the saints players mentioned on here you mean, just from one game?

What about when coley came in late when solomona was being held up and nearly snapped his knee. Solomona was out for several weeks and Smith had some very bad things to say about about the "tackle" e.g. it is only a matter of time where it will end a player's career.
Its just plain nastiness from a team coached by a plain nasty person.

After one match with you, three players had dead legs and one had two dead legs! Knees in at the tackle. Dirty play.

From Saturday's game, Jamie Foster has had to have a scan (according to his Twitter) and I read somewhere that Wilkin might be having one (although not confirmed by him or the club). Lomax was limping at one point thanks to Lima (he started off well with a two match ban).

It's not just us either - a recent example: Catalans lost two players in the first half of their play off game against you. I'm sure Wire lost a couple of players in their league game against you?
