How long was he on the floor being treated or out injured?

Maybe we should just go back to the Newton style tackling, that would suit everyone I suppose!

There are certain 'teqnuiques' which are outlawed in the rules and rightly so, because they are dangerous. Chicken Wing being an example of that. Other examples would include a high tackle. Do you all suggest any team which commits a high tackle are accused of deliberatly trying to injure opponents?

Wigan's defensive tactics involve getting numbers into a tackle, all teams do that, they involve trying to slow the play the ball down by holding a player up to increase the length of time between contact and the tackle being deemed complete. All teams try to do that, just we do it better than most, Huddersfield are on a par.

To suggest an entire team takes to the field of play with the sole intention of injuring opponents is ludicrus. If a coach was really intent on doing this i doubt he would get one or two professional players onside never mind an entire team. Also if this was the case, as mentioned by others there would be a large number of serious injuries everytime Wigan take the field, this simply is not the case.

If/when a player does overstep the mark he will get penalised and banned as Lima has proved, however it is more a case of a player getting tackle wrong than premeditated intent.

I have seen a number of chicken wings, grapple tackles and other incidents on sky's televised games this year. Why is it that people are only interested in the couple of incidents ONE wigan player has done?

The only TRUE evidence of a SL coach threatening to instruct his players to intentionally injure/hurt opposition players has been Nathan Brown in his post match interviews.

Twice. Last season and a few weeks ago.

What action has been taken against this

No player has been injured due to these tactics which it is suggested may cause injury to players. Andy Wilson does confirm this in his article.
Lima's tackle on Soliola was bad and he got banned. Lima then got binned then banned for tackling the standing leg of a player who was running!
Too much is being made of all this, usually coaches who have just suffered a defeat by Wigan.
Wrestling techniques have been around for decades. When was the Cumberland Throw banned?
This is old news from Andy Wilson who seems to be doing to much recycling!

So wait, we have to actually wait for a player to have a serious injury by these tactics before we take note? That doesn't strike you as silly.

Anyway, regardless of this. I wish refs would start penalising Tomkins for his blatant cheating in the tackle. How many times is he going to hold a players arm so he cannot get away from the tackle. It's shocking.

Tried it today and the ref was having none of it. He then decided to play rather than cheat and destroyed Trinity with his invention and evasive skills.

When referees start penalising players for putting their arm in there trying to knock the ball out. Swings and roundabouts.

Lol this has to be the funniest homer post on rlfans. If you cannot see Sam pulling off this crap, then I feel sorry for you. It's a mockery of the game.
