Has there ever been a more calculated and cold attempt to take a key player out of a game and a season? Leeds may as well as have a sniper from the roof of the South Stand and then blamed the blood splatter on a stray blood capsule.

If there is any justice they will give the deformed wonder a good few weeks on the sidelines.

Every time Leeds seem to tackle him they are twisting his shoulder.

Grapple tackle on Eastmond was an act of a dog too. Very WWE.

It's a little pathetic how Bentham needed the TJ to see it

Now Long's hair is being pulled by Burgess

They're even pulling hair now too. Leeds aren't going give up the shield without a fight.

Why oh why is this absolute fool missing all of this? He has missed all three incidents.

He should be out for 4 games. Pathetic, I have never seen a worse, intentional attempt to take out a player. Leeds know he can rip them to shreds when he gets on a roll.

To be fair, Bentham is having a bit of a shocker IMO.

What is the max penalty for a chicken wing tackle?

Stephen Kearney was worse in the play-offs in 2005, where he did about 5 high tackles on a Bradford player(Deacon?) in the first 10 minutes and got sent off.

I don't understand why they don't help him out. He's made very few decisions on his own, preferring to rely on the input of the touchies.

Why aren't they talking into his ear from upstairs though? The hair pulling against Long was as blatant as it comes, Burgess grabs a hand full and yanks him down with it. How does the referee miss it?

Then to top it off after a lobsided penalty count he has the cheek to give Wellens a final warning for waving an arm at an official.

Four games. He'd miss the Grand Final. But the RFL don't have the brass ones to do that.
