Dorn seemed to be talking to the ref more than he was to Sinfield. I just thought he took exception to whatever Dorn was accusing him of.

Good game anyway, two well matched sides and a draw was a pretty fair result. I thought the Carney disallowed try was dubious but can see why it wasn't given.

Am I the only one who thought Abletts first was a double movement? His arm went down before the line and his momentum stopped. I don't see how he can be allowed to have a juggle with it and then reach over the line.

over aggressive would see an e-f grading, pushing your head into someone elses' would seem so, but his clean record would swing his way, just like peacock who had never thrown a punch in his career before the leigh game!

I don't think you have any credibility with that argument, at 24 - 18 down Cas got a string of penalties that culminated in Millingtons try and brought them level.

I agree about Peacocks foul on Clarke but not the Thaler comment

Deserved a red. You can't do that. However, this thread is yet another indication of what a bunch of pu55ies RL fans are. We hear fans go on and on about how the games gone soft, bring back the buff blah blah blah yet whenever anything happens in a game of RL that even slightly resembles "biff" we see a 20 page thread on here with people crying and complaining like kids.

As for he Clark injury, nothing in it.

Yes, seems to be turning into a little bit of a grub does Peacock. Massively respect him as a player, but he just seems to want to scrap all the time. He doesn't need to get involved in any "pushing & shoving" he can let his rugby do the talking.

For what it's worth didnt see much in the Clark tackle.

That's totally disgusting!

What a fool!

Give over. The intent may be to slow the game down, but it was very dangerous. I reckon JP will be receiving a nicely worded letter about his technique there.

I didn't either. Clark was just turning to try to get up and play it quick but Peacock still had hold of his leg. Peacock certainly didn't seem to be twisting it himself.

The knock on was the first offence from Castleford, but the ball is still in play. The player who jumped on the ball was always in front of his team mate and made no attempt to get onside. Being offside he had no right to play at the ball and should have meant that Leeds were awarded a penalty for him being offside, rather than just the knock on.

If the Cas player, being offside, had left the ball then Leeds would have been able to start a run with a power play. The fact that the offside player jumped on the ball negated that.

It was a basic reffing error, but it was a huge one considering there was 30 seconds of the game remaining and a penalty would have put Leeds half way to the posts.

Honestly, this thread has blown up because of [iwho[/i was involved in the headbutting, not the incident itself. Some big daft lad does this and nobody would blink an eye.

If Luis Suarez did it, we'd be reading about it for four or five months.

Are you referring to the Jewitt knock on? If so, it's Clark who runs onto the loose ball and kicks it ahead, but his starting position was from behind Jewitt. No penalty there.

A deliberate head butt by Sinfield, deserves a lengthy ban.

Peacock is and has been an immense player, but he is putting in a lot of cheap shots lately.
