Find it quite funny and quite bitter that the people on here saying Bridge should have been sent off are probably the same people that were defending Tommy Lee the other week with his act of thuggery on the basis that "it was fine because he did it against that ****house Lee Briers".

It was a stupid action by Bridge and if he gets suspended, then it's his own fault.

Who seriously thought Lee should have stayed on the pitch?

It was a stupid action that should have been punished there and then. What good is a ban to Bradford?

My take on it was Bridge went to hurt the man by attacking him with the elbow. Yes there was no contact with the head but the intent to hurt was there. To say he was attempting to dislodge the ball is wrong as the tackle had been complete and its easier to dislodge with the hand rather than your forearm.

It worries me when incidents like this happen and the ref says 'Chris keep it down' were does he think he connected. The Moa one was accidental, the Tommy Lee one should have been a red and so should this.

Other than that and the usual odd alibert calls I thought he had an ok game.

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg



Definate red card, incidents like that without punishment damage the sport, if you were a parent watching that, would you want your child to play the game, when even with the best officials and multiple cameras it isn't ' seen '?

Quote: Enicomb "I'm sure you can work out what that reputation is when a large portion of wire fans are writing off bridges cowardly actions and even suggesting he was attempting to dislodge the ball.

Shame really as bridge is clearly a good player he doesn't need the cowardly, dirty side.'"


I suggest to try to learn the difference between a 'large portion' and one or two.

So again.... can you clarify what this reputation is please?

Quote: Paul Thexton "Idiotic fans defending the indefensible shocker - I've seen that kind of crap spouted on this site for long enough to know that it's not a trait of any individual clubs fans, but of a sadly large amount of fans in general regardless of who they support. Edit

I didn't say 'typical wire fan' - I said a large amount of wire fans; as unfortunately, a large amount are defending it, some just completely sweeping it under the carpet. I didn't suggest you or any other are part of that portion of fans; some people are needlessly defensive - yes sadly it is a large amount in general but the relevance in this thread is wire and some statements made are pretty galling.

man gets kicked in the knackers and responds by dropping the elbow into the chest... A moment of poor indiscipline that will get a 1 game ban... worse things happen on the training ground.

It's hardly 'man tries to gouge opponents eyes out for no reason whatsoever' is it?

quite ironic seeing as the wire fans were calling us a couple of weeks ago whilst defending their players angelic behaviour.
i agreed then that tommy lee should have seen red for his "thuggish attack on briers", likewise bridge should have seen red yesterday.
play hard,play tough but bridge overstepped that mark last night.

Man gets kicked in nackers? icon_lol.gif Sure, bridge might want to think again on his tackling technique (he may have caught a stray boot but jeffries certainly didn't kick him).

...if only it was one or two, unfortunately it's more than that.

<insert witty comment when applicable>:



He went down using the forearm - loads of players do exactly the same thing using the shoulder after they've dropped a player. While not clever, when you watch the replay he is heading down with a straight forearm onto the chest, but hits the ball which changes his arm angle making it look a lot worse than it actually was.

It was probably as dangerous as Kevin Brown's elbow into Bridge's throat two weeks ago - which the RFL gave him a slap on the wrist for. Saying that the RFL hate us so i see a ban coming. icon_wink.gif

What i posted on the Wire forum. For what it's worth Bridge has always had a hot headed side to him. No intent to injure last night, just over aggressive defence.

Quote: Odem "He has ruined what should have been a really close finish to the game. He has made some awful decisions all in favour of wire. How on earth can Bridge not get a red card for that?'"


I refer the honourable gentleman to the case of Tommy Lee v Lee Briers two weeks ago.

Both men should have walked but I suppose it's a form of 'refereeing consistency' which is what fans scream for.

Quote: Mrs Barista ""Top four/Big club" type refereeing seems more in vogue than ever this season. Also if that had been on a Sam Tomkins, Bridge would have been off the pitch IMO.'"

Just like Ablett was sent off for the elbow in his face? I think not.

The majority of Wire comments on this ( including mine ) have agreed that Bridge should have walked. We have disputed calls for a 4-8 match ban, fair enough given what Tommy Lee received for a worse offence.
