I don't see how it can be anything other than the highest grading. Briers gets tackled, gets up and smacks Ablett in the head from behind, who throws nothing back.

Bitter

So Briers gets up, goes towards Ablett and smacks him from behind. You agree that's the fact of what did happen?

Oh, look:

He didn't run in though

He punched him from behind though, do you agree that's a b*tch move, to hit someone from behind when they are off guard? Or is it justified because it's warrington and briers?

What would your thoughts be if ryan bailey had acted in the way briers did?

You'd be calling for the electric chair.

Ablett got up & walked away, Briers chased after him & smacked him.

'Running to' if you want to be a pedant.

He certainly wasn't walking to hit him though was he

Yes that punch would of flattened a horse too

So because he punches like a girl, it's all ok?

Stop ducking and diving the subject.

It was a d*ck move by briers, yes? and if an oppo player had done that you'd be baying for blood.

If our game has any credibility or integrity he'll be banned for at least one game, yes?

Which will mean he misses warringtons crucial final eliminator against whoever they face....which could... COULD cost you a place in the big one. You reap what you sew.

Running in means someone not involved in the original incident in this case the original incident is between Briers and Ablett, now say someone else, Westwood for instance had hit Ablett that would be classed as running in, even if he'd walked.

If it was Bailey yes i would have been calling for his head i was very relieved Briers wasn't sent off as i thought it was nailed on.
