Quote: dirtbag83 "The "spear" tackle was by McIlorum, not Hock, and was penalised by Bentham. It was no worse than Laffranchi's last week, which didn't recieve a card but was punished retrospectively, which is what I imagine will happen here, and rightly so.'"

I am not defending McIlorum here but this is just an observation: Although McIlorum clearly lifted the player I don't think he intended to dump him. As he made the tackle Lima joined in and pushed the player to the floor making it look worse than perhaps it was. If he is deemed to have effected a spear tackle then he will be punished accordingly and I don't have a problem with that.

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg



Quote: nohalfbacks "Although McIlorum clearly lifted the player I don't think he intended to dump him. '"

Based on judgements so far this season, intent isn't coming into it, which IMO is fair enough. It's nigh on impossible to judge whether a player intends to put another player at risk by performing a tackle which does in fact put the player at risk. It is much clearer to judge the actual tackle.

Quote: nohalfbacks "With two eyes peripheral vision is actually 180 degrees which is just what is needed for referees looking for offside. You don't really need as much as 270 degs.'"


You do if you're like Bentham and position yourself ten or twenty degrees off to the left or the right of the posts. For some reason he resorts increasingly to this technique the closer he gets to the defender's try line. Why I have no idea.

It makes no difference unless he stands in front of the defensice line. 180 degrees is all that is needed whether he stands to the left or right.

Do you not understand the concept of angles? If whilst facing the sticks I turn 20 degrees to the left how is it possible to see players standing offside on the right?
