As a relatively unbiased observer:
Flower hit Hohia. Not much in it, but thats where it should have ended.
Hohia elbowed Flower. Bad form and worth a penalty.
Flower threw a blindside punch that knocked Hohia out. Nasty! In Oz these days the punch is an automatic sin bin and it was at least worth that. Probably worth a send off and a week or two.
Flower punches unconscious man on the ground. Complete dog act. No excuses.

If performance enhancing drugs are worth up to two years he should get at least that. And feel damn lucky the cops aren't knocking on his door.

just watched it again, he should be on remand and waiting for a magistrate, 2 years minimum, common assault, GBH, ABH whatever else the Police can think of. If any Wigan fan can defend him that's just plain odd.

Ian Lenagan has made the worse deal, not just for Wigan but for rugby league in general, by signing Shaun Wane on for another three years. When you put together Wanes comments during the world club challenge documentary, his comments about his family hating Saints prior to the grand final and that Ben Flower punch in the Grand Final, it does not look pretty at all.

Had a commentator said the things Wane said, they should lose their job. However Phil Clarke, ironically also from Wigan, had said similar things about Danny McGuire in the past and got away with it. That same commentator has also defended Ben Flower.

Had a Wigan fan punched an unconscious St Helens fan in the stand that Wiganer would probably be facing years from ever being allowed in a rugby league ground? Not Ben Flower though who will most likely be given better treatment than what Gareth Hock was ever given by the Wigan club.

Then of course the Wigan Brigantes were banned from the stands but it seems Wigan players are allowed to show like-to-like behavior on the pitch. The club took a long while to sort that off-field nasty element out and hopefully they will spend the off season sorting out the other nasty elements I’ve wrote about.

Ian Lenagan would get rid of Wane as soon as possible if he had any integrity left.

Last week Sam Burgess broke his cheekbone and eye socket in the first minute and played on to win mom.

This week Ben Flower straddled an already knocked out half back that's half the size of him to line up a punch. Getting sent off in the sent second minute.

One's a hard man forward the other's a pussy hole.

In a sea of hysteric posts you've managed to raise the bar. Well done sir!

Hardly a 'jab'. He pulled his arm back.

Some Wigan fans probably can. After all some Wigan fans wanted Danny McGuire's career to be over due to an obstruction.

Think Clarkes comment in commentary have been over looked a lot he was desperately trying to somehow justify it.

I think Wane may regret that. If I was controlling the club I'd dismiss Flower and Wane too if he wishes to stand by his man.

I think for those reason Flower will need to be sacked or given a life ban. The sport cannot afford that. No sport can. As I said last night - it has set the game back years.
