"Poor tackle" - weasel words if ever I saw them; and Fev fans may have dined out on it, but Ropati didn't for quite some months, unless it was through a straw.

It remains one of the most brutal and sickening attacks I've ever seen on the pitch; and no amount of downplaying will sanitise it.

Why Hull especially?

Ben flower ?

The more I see and hear Radders the more I like him, he says it as it is, describing it as a pub game disgusting and apologising to the viewers. We need more like him ..

Oh, that's alright then.

No sir. I was providing an example of a worse incident on the field (in my opinion of course).

Somebody said Radford's comments on radio humberside were interesting, what were they ?

For those who don't know Orchard Park and Bransholme are two large council estates in Hull.

What concerns me is Radford isn't really accepted any fault of his players. It seems he's directing it all at Fev. Trust me, I was a total neutral when watching last night but it takes 2 to tango. Faurimo was beyond moronic.

I've no doubt there have been worse incidents, but I haven't witnessed them. Flower's brain fart was awful, but at least he wasn't sneaky about it and he didn't try to run away,
I saw Rocky Turner, Vinty Karalius, Jack Wilkinson, Chris Burton and Jim Mills all play and believe me they took no prisoners, but I've never seen anything as nasty as Chase's assault on Ropati. There was no need for it, there was no provocation, it was just sheer nastiness, I'm no lover of Cas, but I don't blame them, I blame the player. He should never have played again after that. He did. But that's the RFL for you.

Please don’t bring facts into it, Rangi Chase did the worst tackle ever....... signed: nuetral fev and wakey fans

About what you'd expect from a brain dead Cas fan. The fact that Ropati had his jaw broken and didn't play for 12 weeks no doubt adds to your merriment.

I've seen the game now. For the first twenty Fev were like the rabbit in the headlights, and it looked as if Hull would blow them away. But once Fev started playing, and Hull looked insecure, that's when the nasty stuff started. Holding down at the tackle, flops, holding the tackler down (Briscoe got sinbinned for that) A blatant high tackle on Briscoe on about 27 minutes, unpunished, and several knock-ons at the PTB which they got away with. The Hardcastle disallowed try was another example of the officials favouring Hull. The point of the ball clearly touched the ground, under control, before the Hull player intervened. Hull got away with so much for so long that they thought they could do what they liked, hence the carnage at the end. I'll admit that Taulapapa should probably have been yellow-carded, but it wasn't high despite what the Sky commentator said, it was early. The reaction of the Hull player after he obstructed Briscoe said it all about Hull. He should have got a red card for that smirk alone. I don't watch much Sky but their commentary team really are very biased against Championship clubs.
