Didn't James Child say that the TJ was a witness to bitemarks on Cox's arm?

Didn't hear him say anything about bite marks, TJ was witness to the attempted bite, didn't look like any of the officials looked at the bite marks at all, could be wrong though! |

Didn't see the incident but I agree that if the evidence is true he should receive the same ban as Howell. Lowest offence to commit in my opinion, along with spitting.

Its a strange one. Whitehead seemed to change his mind half way through and pull away. Not that it is much of a defence mind. Didnt have him down as that kind of player.'"
That's not the incident- it's just before that,you clearly see Jordan Cox pull his arm away,
Hopefully the panel get a clear view as it needs stamping out straight away. |

Must say I'm very surprised at this
Biting is one of the worst offences in our sport, it's cowardly and disgusting and must be eradicated from the sport.... However
looking back at the replay for this it does not appear to me that the was anything in it at all, he moves his head towards cox's arm and back down again, this was in slow motion but if u watch it at full speed it just appears as if he's trying to get to his feet.
I think he's been hard done by on this one and I would imagine there will be an appeal

He moved towards the players arm to bite him, not sure how you bite in a gum shield but he fair went for it, as cameras showed. Stupid thing to do seeing as though he was playing a good game aside from this incident .

The clip everybody keeps mentioning,which sky showed wasn't the actual biting incident.
It was just before that,-you can clearly see Jordan Cox pull his arm away,

He's not even had the initial disciplinary yet! |

It looks like nothing to me, at no point does his mouth appear to make contact. But the ref ans TJ were definately looking at the HKR player's arm at one point.
I don't know what to think, I would be very surprised at Elliot if he did do it and the video eveidence shows nothing. So a massive ban then...

So where was this incident that you refer to shown if it wasn't the incident shown on Sky? |
