I was not there and I have not seen the incident in question, but it was beyond doubt without cause and should result in a 3 match ban. No excuses for picking on the poor Bradford soul.

The video on SLTV about the Bradford - Wigan game shows the incident about half way through.

Elima being French, so that's a racist assault, tut tut.

Just shows how you've got that you've resorted to talking about stuff like this.

On a side note, joke all you want but McIlorum is one of the best hookers in the league. No he's not as good as Roby, but on current form he's excellent. There's a reason that we're top of the league, and a big part of that is how good McIlorum is playing currently.

Now that is what I call a rational judgement.

McIlrum was stupid for retaliating but there was provocation. He'll probably get a one match ban or sending off sufficient. A yellow for both players would probably have been the correct decision.

Yeah he's called Sam Tomkins aka Rat Boy

Nah. I think a bigger part by far was that you had Tommy Leuluai playing for you. He has been terrific for Wigan even when they were total tosh.

Thats correct, Tomkins don,t play..........Wigan don,t play.

Micky Mac is just a good no 9, nothing special, just playing in a form team. He is catching up to Hock though on temperament and intelligence.

Micky Mac is now showing the Wigan Head Hunter Trait, be it, turning people upside ...... head tackle........punching fist. Something that doesn,t exist in his team according to Wanes World of Rugby.

That's right. They're all nice boys who need protection from the meanies in the opposition teams!

Oh no, my bad. That's just Samkins.

Brilliant

Just watched the incident on Utube. You can see Micky Mac, tackle completed, wait for the ref to turn away then grabs Elima in the throat. Elima is having none of it, gives a couple of elbows before Mickey Mac sees the Red Mist of Wigan and gives a roundhouse punch.

So both should have seen a yellow card?

No, Red, Simples

Three elbows, ha don't make me laugh.

Just seen it for the first time on SL fulltime.

Hock makes a hash of it, Elima drops on the ball, Mickey comes in on the deck arms around Elima's neck.

Elima stands up, Mickey still hanging onto the neck so Elima tries to shrug him off, he still holds on.
He tries to shrug him off again, he is still holding onto his neck.
The final shrug at worst could be an elbow to the ribs, but that's using wigan glasses. Really it's just another shrug. This gets mickey off his neck and he punched elima who does not roll on the floor, he just holds his face.

Typical Wiganers, making up some drama to excuse their players actions thinking that because it was not live on TV no one else would see it for what it was.

Similar to the wiganers trying to say LMS headbutted Hock to excuse hock whirling his fists.

Certainly there is now an option to defeat Wigan in the playoffs, first game just get at Hock and MM, you could have 2 bans straight out there. Who knows how many head cases there are in that squad.
