Well said that man, someone in primrose & blue who can see it for what it really is, I hadn't seen it until tonight when the BBC highlights were shown (it was that controversial that sky cut it from their highlights last night???). It was a messy/clumsy tackle, first impact on the hip then Hansen seemed to grab out to gain grip and came up with fresh air, and gravity being what it is, with nothing to hold onto there was only one place he was going and that was down onto Ratchfords ankle....unfortunate, but unfortunate things happen in rugby, ask Monaghan about headbutting Pats hip.

sh[t happens

No, Lima got banned for a cannonball tackle.

they changedthe rules mid season because of how much of house Lima was. funnily enough Wigan fans were defending him at the time as well.

just watching the game again, the tackle just happened, if this had been on a kicker on his non kicking leg, it'd be a straight red.

it's a cannonball tackle with no control on a man that's being controlled by a defender.

I'd agree completely had he actually tackled his leg and not his hip.....

It was a hell of a shot by Westwood to connect like that when he wasn't even looking at where he was punching. Right on the money.

A tough sport which can be brutal, Morley apparently played with a fractured cheekbone in the grand final and Joel Monaghan now needs plastic surgery on his ear.
