What were "the Rugby Gods" unhappy about when they gave him a broken neck?'"
Im sory , i missed the article where Phil said all injuries are a result of cheating. Sour grapes? Just take a look at this thread..

| Last night there were over 20 penalties for foul play - so is every player who committed a penalty a cheat?
Or is it just Danny McGuire?

| You think every penalty is as bad as a professional foul?

I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew
Between the wars:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4486.png |

| Funny though when even Eddie had had enough and stated to Clarky "We will come back to that contravertial Leeds Win comment" and when they did Clarky rambled on about a penalty try and cheating so Eddie said " So you think Tompkins delibriately kicking an apponent is ok then" although Clarky answered i would have love to have seen his face!!
Says something when your colleagues are sick of you wittering on about Wigan whilst having a firm grasp of your penis!!

Stop talking sense Cod'ead.

'Look Phil, you're a decent bloke with a distinguished career, but you the bias, nonsense statistics and the very strange inflection in your voice makes you look and sound like a complete {.................} (use drop down menu for your own choice of words)

He isn't biased. Wigan fans not so long ago were moaning about his praise for Saints and Leeds and Warrington and Hull and KR and Bradfert and Catalans and Cas and Salford and especially Sean Long, even Wakey and Hudd, he will always try to find the positive. As regards the penalty try, he was right, as he so often is. The laugh about this subject is how many posters are now trying to say that Stevo and hairdye talk sense.

| He was worse than ever last night. And people who say he isn't biased no nothing about RL. Check Chev Walkers, Matt Diskin and Paul Wood's Twitters' that is how bad he was last night. Cringeworthy.

| I knew Sam Tomkins was gonna get the man of the match award. Despite there being at least 10 better performers last night. He is going to get destroyed down under against the Kangaroos, completely destroyed. Being fast and skinny doesnt cut it down there. Yellow boots or not.

What's the difference between holding a man down to prevent a quick PTB that could lead to a try or what McGuire did - both are calculated illegal actions against the rules of the game that could have very similar outcomes?
