Fair enough, and initially understandable, but after the lengthy treatment the chants of cheat as Tomkins walked past was poor form to say the least.

Did Steve Ganson walk within the vicinity of Tomkins when this happend by any chance?

Joel Tomkins makes me laugh when he comes running in thinking he's ten men. Elima would absolutley smash him.

Nope the game had restarted by then. I think he also got a boo and another round of cheat as he came back out to sit on the bench at the start of the second half.

Reckless challenge (more than careless) probably little or no intent. Sending off sufficient.

I havent seen the replay but Roby was up with play and Ganson seemed to be taking a report off of him afterwards.

He called his touch judges in before he went to the video ref. Honestly I don't think Ganson was wrong given what he was told by the video ref. It was a bad tackle and looked even worse in slo mo.

Lets just see what happens the next time it happens to one of ours.

This incident was a red card, the question is will be consistency with the next similar challenge that is the question.

Spot on, Red.

I feel confident we all know the answer to that particular question..

I fear we all do.

Wigan fan in peace and I wholly agree with the above. Red, SOS.

Great effort lads, thought you were going to win cos you seemed to want it more than us.

Wish you well for the rest of the season.

got to say that thought crossed my mind too. how could tomkins be in control of grounding the ball while unconscious?.

that said be surprised if any further action is taken. correct decision to send raynor off but SOS fir a reckless tackle imo.

I thought he was out. He was only a few feet off the floor though and his arms didnt have time to leave the ball. Plus his body seemed to ground the ball, then his arms fell away. Or am I wrong? I really need to see a replay

OK, I have just seen the replay and I was some way off

He grounded it though with his forearm as he fell to ground.
