[quote="Steve":1xb0p6sn] Dislike Leigh with a passion, but they are a million miles ahead of any other club in this league, a sad fact. [/quote:1xb0p6sn]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_24148.jpg |

| So looks like Wilkin has now back tracked on Walmsleys season being over and he's actually fine other than a slight knock?
Almost as if there was a massive over reaction...

| It’s rare I agree with Wilkin and even rarer I agree with the Sad one.
This technique (if that’s an appropriate word) needs to be banned at the first opportunity. It’s not tough, it’s at best reckless and at worst malicious. The defender is not in any sort of control and flinging themselves at lower limbs.
For one player to do it causing 4 injuries in one game to me suggests in that case, it’s more malicious than reckless. After all the publicity, the medical evidence and 2 serious injuries caused, that same player does it again the following week pretty much proves that player is quite happy with the result of their ‘technique’. Anyone who wasn’t would have made sure they didn’t do it again the following week.
Bell was just as bad, I can accept in a single instance that the player likely just got it wrong rather then went on with malice. Most players will get it wrong now and again.
The RFL need to look at this in the off season and come up with suitable wording that outlaws tackles of a reckless nature but doesn’t outlaw a good, controlled cover tackle.
Chicken Wings, cannonballs etc we’re all legal at one point. It doesn’t mean they were ever right. ‘Tackles’ like this make me cringe,
