Quote: Rugby "A general bad vibe between the sides today, not sure why as these games are usually played in good spirit. Smith says in his post match interview (on Guardian site) that he also received abuse in the stand and that is not acceptable.
We seemed to get sucked into Huddersfield's physical / rough play and it didn't help us.
Another game we should have closed out.'"
i think you did succumb to niggling easily, however the rough stuff was instigated by bridge and england, things had been fine before then, for Eorl to get riled like he did and to start windmilling then something must have gone on!
i've also heard reports of a wire player spitting at a giants player, despicable if true!
i think there could be some bans and fines coming for players from both teams this week.
for me wire seemed to be in total control of the game at 19-12 but then seemed to be more interested in getting the upper hand in the niggle stakes.
but i will take a league double, cheers
