Just watched the tackle and must say It looks to be ok .He absolutely flattens Brough , and the concussion comes from him hitting his head on the ground .

Perhaps you should take another look.

Watch the highlights.

The hit hits his shoulder then rides up into his head. Still reckless. Still dangerous. But not the crime of the century.

Great photo that mate. Someone should tip off the Pulitzer committee.

He should have tried taking a snap of the two frames before too. But they are not as damning. I don't deny it's reckless, and dangerous. It's just not as bad as he's making out.

I have watched them. It's late, and yes as you say reckless, not the crime of the century but has caused injury. The OP claimed there was nothing wrong with it. You yourself agree it was reckless. Let's see what the disciplinary make of it. I will accept their findings.

I'm not "making out" anything, I'm replying to the original post that
It "looks ok" - clearly you can see there is contact with the head before he hits the ground. And I'm on my phone so that was the only frame I managed to get- you can post those two frames before if you wish in fact please do -It won't change anything.

as i have stated on another thread, it was high, it was late,it was reckless and he could have pulled out of it.
not sure how that constitutes "ok" but each to their own

Christ I think I need new glasses as that is seriously blurry and if we're all honest shows nothing.

Seen at full speed the hit looks obviously late and reckless, if he cops a ban for it there can be no complaints, neither should there be if they deem sending of sufficient.

Is Brough okay though? might a whinging little sod but a wonderful player non the less and I always like too watch him play.

Not holding my breath for that conclusion

possible broken jaw/cheekbone, fingers crossed it's not as bad or it could be season over for us.
and i agree with the 2nd sentence but think he will cop a ban for that.

Is that the view of The RFL,Mr Bonita
Stop the video at 3 mins 50 secs,then have an opinion.
Another gaffe by Mr Hicks,following on from last Thursdays game at Widnes.

Yes 2 Howlers from Mr Hicks - bet he wont be stood down though - earning a packet from the RFL

For the avoidance of doubt I don't work for the RFL.
I watched it twice and smiled.
It was late,no more than that. The test is that had it simply been a tackle when Brough was holding the ball,would it have been a sending off. Not at all,it would have been a penalty at worse,because it might have been regarded as simply a very aggressive tough tackle.
However,Mr Kate,back in the real world the RFL will do him for 3 games !!

maybe Lama felt like a bit of retribution on Brough for carrying on after he ended Mcpherson`s Salford career , could still be fresh in the memory you never know , Brough would have seen Mcpherson go down and must have knew he was in a bad way but 4 points were more important than a fellow pro`s well being .
