A lot of the Tomkins abuse seems to claim that he tried to kick a player in the head. Seriously, no matter how much you hate him, does the replay look like that was the intention? It's so obviously just a desperate lunge to stop a try being scored using what is, quite admittedly an illegal method ( tbh, at the time I didn't even know it was illegal to do that, seen plenty tries not given due to a leg under the ball ). It wasn't 'studs up' or malicious, just daft, so criticize, yes, but keep a sense of perspective. Hock's another matter....

Personally i thought he was going for the ball to knock it out of Clarkes hands, nothing incident for me, think me may see Atkins up, looked like he had a barney with someone

I feel the same way. He was simply trying to stop the try and it was a reflex action. The injury to Jon Clarke's head had occurred some time before and Sam's boot was nowhere near. As Yed says Hock is an entirely different matter. I would also be looking at Lima for the cowardly hair pull and the elbow in Matt King's face.

The Morley trip, the Louis Anderson grapple tackle and the Matt King punching and elbowing Lima for no reason other than him tackling him.

You are allowed to trip if you have hands on the player

Yes he didn't hurt Clarke but the point is he could have. It was a reckless lunge which easily could have seen a boot to the head/face for clarke - it WAS dangerous and Clarke was lucky not to be injured by it.

The Morley thing was an error as he was off balance and Silverwood recognised that. No grapple from Louis, and would he retaliate if someone tackled you by the hair and then elbowed you in the face? My wife knows little about RL, but she watched the replay of the second half last night and thought Wigan were a load of thugs.

You mean the cumberland throw, . You can do it if you have 2 hands on the player, Morley had one arm on Tomkins and that was round his neck.

Morleys was an error? Thats ok then, Hocks was an error too.

Louis Anderson grapple, I suggest you watch it again without the tinted spectacles on.

If you watch the King Lima incident , King is being tackled and Lima sticks the shoulder in and King doesn't like it so elbows Lima in the face which promts Lima to scrag his hair leading to King punching and elbowing Lima on the floor.

If your Mrs thinks Wigan are thugs then that settles the argument.

Dirty dirty Hock more spare time for the coke head

Dirty Wire.... i dont know how we get away with it.

Glad you have acknowledged it.

i thought we ruined the game yesterday with our underhand tactics.

Our constant lying on in the tackle was almost desperate at times.... what a truly despicable brand of rugby we play.

our fullback was a disgrace again.... constantly waving his arms around and shouting at the ref for a penalty in almost every tackle... and dont get me started on our hair pulling and eye gouging.

Did you see Morley on Finch, same old dirty Morley giving away penalties, how you can take inspiration for your avatar from him i don't know MD

You know some of you Wire fans are alright, not as one eyed as I thought.
