Well one things for sure, he won't try it next time Joel Tompkins tackles him.

Kicking the little guys when they're on the floor is about that scumbag's level. Fingers crossed he'll make the Four Nations tour, just a shame Willie Mason won't be around to show him up as the windy fooker he is.

All players do it, watch any game be it at the ground or on the telly and look at any player who's being tackled. If they've got a hand free, they'll grab the defender somewhere or other, or wrap a limb around to make it look like they're being held down. All this fuss over one player is ludicrous

Many players do it, not all...and some do it constantly, not just when there is a sneaky chance.

Mind, its no better than tantruming at the ref or TJ which many players from "top" clubs have done for years.

Much worse than a professional foul obviously.

If maguire and sinfield hadn't put their hands in in the first there'd be nothing to trap. Also, are you seriously conceding that neither leeds player could force their hand out in any case?

Another thread about Wigan!! Keep em' coming people! Love how much bigger we are than any other R.L. club.

Blimey how big is your ego? I thought it was about milking penalties prompted by someone who happens to play for W*g*n

fyp

Well, they probably would have conceded a penalty because no doubt that cheating Tomkins lad would have let go of the ball to try and win a penalty for being a ball steal.

Add to that his voluntary tackle in the 2nd half?

At the end of the day, all teams will do whatever it takes to win. It's up to the refs to punish players for anything which they think is illegal.

The main thing that annoyed me on Sunday night was the antics of the Leeds players infront of the East stand at the end of the game. Inciting the crowd like that is all a bit embarrassing and shows a lack of class, namely Senior, Delaney and fat Ali. I can understand a celebration after a try, but it was beyond a joke on Sunday. The game was over, the players had shook hands and they were still at it.

I agree but Leeds fans have no right commenting. You guys stick up for ryan bailey so you can't have the cheek call another player a windy ............

Tomkins probably fell asleep, its takes that long for Leeds players to get off the tackled player that sometimes I could swear that it's Sky showing it in slow motion.

I think if the ball carrier tries it, there should be a 'free kick' rule in place where the tacklers team mates are permitted to use their foot to remove the offending limb. They have it in Union during their piley on sessions I believe.

Imagine if McGuire was holding a player down when Tomkins kicked him in the face, that kind of thing.

Get the impression that your all worried that Wigan are on the rise and will start to win everything again !!!!!!!! Next thing you will be moaning about the salary cap. before you do that ask the W***y..Warrington Club how they do It ! with out getting caught.?

Them Tomkins bros are great talents but both niggly blokes.

Tomkins kicking out was pure idiotic.

You can always tell those new to the game and see their bias.

It's refreshing even if niave.

One day

And what happens when he lets go so the ball pops free?
Tomkins is onto a winner either way.
Or had that fact passed you by.

Same thing.

You want lessons in milking penalties watch the West Tigers and Jamie Soward in the NRL

It's all i see on a load of threads. Wigan fans says we are all worried about them because there is a thread which links to them. That then said fan mentions Warrington....

So what does that mean? Your scared of us?

I can tell you one thing for sure, out of the top 4 finishing teams I would choose Wigan everytime.....not one bit scared of them....

Did you miss the sentence preceding the one you pointed out?

Some Wigan fans seem absolutely desperate that everyone must acknowledge them as the 'biggest team' in the competition. Any particular reason for this? It smacks of total insecurity.

can't believe this is an issue. Players in Oz, get told to fight in the tackle to help get a quick play the ball, if they can't it's because they are being held and therefore a penalty.
