That doesn't mean other people aren't entitled to theirs.

IF there was any serious intent, Wellens and the club would have taken it further, he was asked if he wanted to proceed and said No! matter should be closed.

None of that is true apart from the fact that he fell into the tackle. The rest is quite pathetic...

Why? You think high fives and back slaps are in order when you knock a teenager out with an illegal challenge (Intended or not)?

I blame the parents/guardians. What were they thinking, letting a poor teenager play rugby against those naughty Wigan players?

I'm surprised Social Services aren't involved!

First of all you're conveniently ignoring the rest of the trash you posted to concentrate on a single point. Care to defend the rest of the garbage you posted? As for the 'high fives and back slapping deserving a ban'... Good God! Are you for real? I almost feel ridiculous posting a reply, but go on, I'll humour you. The celebrations, as you very well know, were for the tackle. Anyone with even the most basic understanding of rugby would understand that, were it not for the player slipping, this is exactly what O'Loughlin put in. Check out the initial reactions of the commentators for confirmation if you are really unable to see this for yourself (which I doubt!). To even suggest it was for 'knocking a teenager out' is...well, let's be honest...simply making things up and does the players, the game in general and, not least, yourself a disservice! Let's just say this post wasn't your finest hour and move on.

You are wrong, stop taking everything on it's literal content, think a little.

It was a bad challenge, I mentioned at the time it was a 1-2 sort of offense, but he got off with it. I put that as O'Loughlin was very low himself when he put the challenge in, had Richards stood up, he would have missed him by a foot. But no drama. The reaction from you and the other Goon on here has been interesting, you seem utterly incredulous that we've suggested one of your players may possibly deserve a ban. Kind of hints at some deep rooted insecurity. Possibly because you are a one man team at the moment, who knows?

Yes I'm very insecure about our double winning team

I think you may be getting a little confused -
our 'one man team' left at the end of last season and was replaced by a crocked past it Aussie.

lol you should rename your username and call your self a comedian. no suggestion of richards slipping as he was changing direction as soon as he realised o'loughlin was lining him up?

so its no longer Sam Tomkins and now Sean O'loughlin? another consoling method along with player for player we are better?

I'm not entirely certain who is winding who up on this thread.

Just shocked it's stretched to 13 pages.

A little thought was all it needed to see your post for the garbage it was; so thank you for your advice, but all the thinking needed was done before replying. It wasn't a bad challenge, merely a bad outcome. The two aren't one and the same. It was never a 1-2 sort of offence. Would you like to know how I can say that? Because it was ajudged no further case to answer. QED. I have no problem with you suggesting one of our players deserved a ban; I said the same myself re: Dudson on Monday. What I DO object to, however, is the absolute nonsense you posted. Basically you tried to make out there was a deliberate attempt to injure on O'Loughlin's part and that the Wigan players revelled in that injury. Neither was true. What's more, I have no doubts whatsoever that you even believed that in the first place. I'm equally sure that, should you get the opportunity to ask any of your own players what they think of O'Loughlin, they would have nothing but the highest praise for him both as a player and a person. In fact run your theory of his deliberate attempt to injure Richards by one of them, should you get the chance, and see what reaction you get! As I said earlier, the simple fact is you made some rubbish up and posted it as fact. Well, I guess that's your prerogative. These are free boards after all. However, don't be surprised when you are brought to task over it. That's my prerogative. By the way, the amateur psychology at the end of your last post is equally as laughable as your original assertions. You do have a vivid (if somewhat ludicrous) imagination there, don't you?

....and mine!

Bored of this now!
