Donald fouled Richards. It is clutching at straws to claim "he was committed", unless as I have said in my earlier post you mean he was committed to taking Richards out.
However the ref does not have to give the McGuire penalty, he can play on and see if Wigan get the advantage.

| The only good thing about incidents like last night, is that it highlights how bitter and baised some posters on here really are.

I agree entirely, I didn't think there was enough passion left in the Bulls fans but they have proved me wrong.

yes the maguire incident was irrelevant as donald was late on richards, if donald had play at richards feet instead of torso he may have got away with it, but it was too late in my book.

To be filed under the "embittered Bulls fan" file. If you were a ref using judgment like that shown in your post the game would be in a dire state.

| Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "If I had been the ref I would have given a penalty try, as one of the clearest cases of a deserved penalty try I can recall, not one but two professional fouls. I could legitimately do it, too, as all it needs is if "in the opinion of the ref a try would have been scored". Well, with Carmont free to support, in my opinion a try would have been.'"
And in Monsieur Alibert's, it wouldn't have. And unlike yours, his actually counts for something.

| Quote: just_browny "Somehow Carmont has been characterised as some sort of speed merchant in the light of this incident. Presuming that he would go 55-60m without anyone running him down is nothing more than a fairy story. Alibert/someone else's decision to give a penalty to Wigan way down in Leeds territory was a golden chance for Wigan they did not deserve.
But the Man of Steel-in-waiting blew it big time.'"
It would have been, Richards to Carmont, then Carmont to sam and no one off Leeds would have laid a finger on him. As for Wigan not deserving it, why? It was a great game, could have gone either way.
Anyhow, we are still in it and gonna win it.

It's impossible to say.
I mean, you'd have banked on richards kicking that penalty from in front of the sticks wouldn't you?
Theres nothing to say richards (nervous wreck) wouldn't have blown the inside pass, or that cramont wouldn't have knocked on.
You can't just assume it would have ended in a try 50 metres out with onrushing leeds defenders.

In Monsieur Alibert's opinion Donald wasn't late on Richards, as he originally gave a scrum for the ball going into touch, Leeds head and feed.
It was only the intervention of the touch judge for the McGuire incident that forced him to ask Phil Bentham for advice - presumably on that incident alone - and saw his original decision on the Donald-Richards collision overturned by a majority verdict of the three officials involved.

From reading this forum today I can safely say fans of MOST teams are acting like this. Quite a few from Hudds as usuall....

All the fault of that big bully Danny McGuire for elbowing him apparently.
Although like Radford before him, Tomkins wasn't man enough to wait for the person he believed to have wronged him to get to his feet before lashing out.
