theres a few. not all but a few.

It is a little disappointing to see a thread on this, a thread on Kallum Watkins apparently not being as good as he should be, but none on the absolutely wonderful game we have just seen.

If every game we had was like that (momentum changing bit of biff included ) we would be the among the biggest sports in the world.

Too tame for his standards

It happened about 30 seconds from the end. Around the half way line. My memory of it was that it was a simple knock on from Cas and a player in front of him just dropped on the ball.

Impossible to defend his actions really. Given his previous exemplary record, and lack of real menace in it, will probably be worthy of a couple of weeks on the sidelines.

As a Leeds fan, there's a couple of ways I can look at this;

1 - As silly as it was, I could be quite proud that the game meant that much to him, that he's snapped in the heat of the moment. Completely out of character, and probably cost Leeds a point, but a sign of passion and desire. And he certainly doesn't owe Leeds a thing, so can be forgiven on this occasion.

2 - I could be quite worried that he's snapped so easily - is it indicative of further frustration? Is something not quite right behind the scenes for him to snap like that?

I'm definitely more compelled to go with option 1, but if it is option 1, I'd have liked to have seen a few fists thrown too for good measure - might aswell make the ban worthwhile by landing a few good shots. Carney got a couple of games for pummelling the Widnes winger earlier this year, I'd rather be missing time for that than a nonsense ineffective half head butt.

It's SL's equivalent to Zidane headbutting Materazzi

He almost sounds as bad as the Wigan fans in 2010

he will be fine to play in the semi final is what i reckon.... was a terrible heads gone moment and he deserved a red card.
2 match ban i think

Though I'm not sure a half head butt is possible with a forehead of that size! Maybe his ban should be double, as it could count as a double head butt

Most embarrassing post I've seen in a long while, then I saw this....

Good to see a ref have the nuts to send a player off. Sinfield has a clean record and redhall in his pocket. Might get a few games but i recon sending off sufficient.

If the rules state 4-8 match ban I'd expect and hope he would get a 4 match ban; but I'd be upset if he got any more than that.

Not sure whether my estimation of him has gone down really; it's nice to see he has some spark in him for once. Costing Leeds a point is disappointing but relatively trivial; OTOH costing Leeds any chance in the CC semi, which his absence almost certainly would do, is by far the most important result of the whole incident.

What if JJB had done it?

IF the RFL want to remotely be seen to be addressing this problem of use of the head then it has to be minimum of 3 games, frankly it's full contact with agression, how much actual force should not actually dictate the grading but will.
As for Peacock, he's a spinless , yet again showing his lack of class by grabbing a players throat and trying to injure a player by grabbing onto the ankle the way he did undue pressure and held on well after the tackle was complete..grub doesn't cover it..

By grabbing on to the ankle to injure do you mean grabbing on the ankle to make a tackle? Complete tard doesn't cover it.
