I think this whole thing is snowballing very quickly and whilst I in no way condone Ben Flower smacking a man when he was star fished on the floor, it is not the worst thing that has ever happened in a rugby match and the whole thing happened so quickly it was probably over before the guy had time to think about what he was doing. I think all these comments about banning him for life etc are out of order. I the heat of the moment in a big game big, players get themselves all revved up and the red mist decends. I do think the RFL need to be strong on the issue though, he should be banned 8 - 12 matches and a proper fine not this £300 bollox that they seem to impose again and again. But I imagine that the morons at Red Hall will find a way to make themselves look more stupid than they already are (He will probably get off as sending off sufficient on the basis that other players have thrown punches this season and not even been sin binned)

You really can't see it can you?

See what? Sadsack's inane ramblings?

I've explained myself quite clearly on here several times. If you have a post of mine you disagree with, point it out. Don't just hijack a post from possibly the lamest troll on RLFans.

I'm right. You can't argue with it can you? You've seen the documentary I take it? You've seen how Wane spoke before the GF and you've seen what Flower did. RL is a sport where you need to be physical and aggressive to be successful, but Wigan are taking it too far, crossing the line of morality and respect for the opposition that is the very core of our sport.

Absolutely spot on. Horrible ethos and tactics, delighted they're empty-handed as their reward this year.

I will guess with an 8 game ban and the customary £300 fine.

Yes, I can. I've already responded to someone else with a suspect IQ who took Wane's comments literally. I'll paste it below:

It's nothing more than you'll hear in RL dressing rooms every week, talk to hype the team up, get their aggression and intensity going, to dominate physically. And it's a lot milder than some dressing rooms I've been in.

If you think they actually then go out and try to knock people out, you're an idiot, pure and simple.

Tell you what, given that this highly drilled Wigan team are apparently being coached to 'knock people out', they're not doing a very good job. One or two a year at best. Need to up their game.

That said Benjamin Flower deserves a one year ban for his unspeakable cruelty.

You are absolutely right.
