I can't understand why Wellens would say it if was not true. It's a serious allegation.

Looks very naughty there

Role model of thuggery v Role model of sporting professionalism. The best one to judge whether Wellens led with the elbow or arm would be HOCK for Wigan he use to do it around 4 or 5 times a game, week in week out.

model professional? Maybe if he stopped all the whiney temper tantrums he throws at the refs every time saints concede a try.

Judder man guess you didn't support saints when you had nick fozzard.

Well, of course. Everybody knows that the disciplinary committee are infallible.

The disciplinary will be unable to draw any conclusions based on the video just like any other objective person. What it boils down to is whether Wellens has any evidence to back up his claim. He he does then MM will be charged and deservedly banned. If he doesn't then he won't.

Just watched the incident, and I think he has bitten Wello. It's the kind of behaviour you expect from McIlorum these days unfortunately, hopefully a long ban is on it's way! For the Wigan fans questioning Wellens' professionalism, throwing the odd paddy is hardly comparable to biting another player. Wellens isn't really going to make up that he's been bitten, and the pictures show that he was.

Whilst that is true, I think we all know he bit him. Unfortunately, just like kicking him whilst on the floor at the dw, the cameras won't be conclusive.

Question for the Wigan fans - do they REALLY think someone like Paul Wellens would say a fellow pro bit him if they didn't?

I can't speak for others but No I don't. I think that at the time Wellens thought he was. Wellness was however pushing his arm into MM's face, effectively into his mouth. From the video There was no obvious biting action from MM. If he did indeed 'clamp down' I'm sure he would have left a mark for the ref to see and include in his report.

It is also very possible that Wellens felt MM's teeth as he was shoving his arm into his mouth and therefore felt as though he was bitten even though he wasn't. I can understand most St Helens fans thinking that would be nonsense, particularly as people love to hate MM but it is feasible.

As I said before I honestly can't draw any conclusion from the evidence and will wait for the disciplinary rather than making the conclusion that I would prefer.

Wellens sticks his arm into MM's face/mouth. When he gets up he reacts as though he thinks he has been bitten but then immediately gets on with the game. Now if he really thought that he had been bitten then winging Wello would have been straight in the refs face complaining. He didn't which indicates to me that this is all a storm in a tea cup.

He did complain to the ref

Very briefly. He whinges at the ref all the time over nothing. I am pretty sure that he would have kicked off big style if he had been genuinely bitten.

so he complained, but not enough for you?
