When you play for Wigan it seems

Ryan Bailey away at Catalans , similar challenge , nowhere near as bad though . Red card .

Childs saw it and bottled it , simples .

It will be interesting to see what they decide, considering it was a carbon copy of the Taylor incident.

If Taylor would have been (rightly) banned, I wonder whether Catalan would have targeted O'Brien? Just a thought.

Surely the RFL have to act about this now. A shoulder charge that is late should be, at least, an automatic sin bin and/or one match ban. Cheap shots on half backs is surely a question of player welfare and considering that he's been stretchered off with concussion means that it is just as dangerous as contact with the head.

O'Brien getting knocked out two fixtures in a row is not good for the player, other half backs who take the ball to the line and the sport in general.

O'Brien's taking a lot of stick of late. Is he ok?

Probably not. 2 Heavy hits on the head like that means he'll probably be having a week off against London.

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG

He,s had quite a few head knocks since he,s come into the Saints Squad, maybe he struggles with the impact from the "big hitters" more than the normal player, Gilmour was another one who use to struggle as well.
The thing is if the Cats player is adjudged innocent, I would imagine the London Broncos would see it as open season and target O,Brien for a late challenge to destroy his confidence.
