Do you have an inability to read?

A little bit of wee came out, I laughed that hard! You're right ditch, they are deluded!

| Quote: lefty goldblatt "I don't care if I'm in the minority....
just answer the question
where has Bridge broken the rules?
I've not seen it.
It was a hard tackle.
He did not lead with the elbow, so why have you included it in your arguement.
I'd just like to know, where in the rulebook, it says that it's illegal to hit someone with a forearm, in the chest? I await your reply with interest.'"
Are you serious?
IMO you are just trying to look clever and it isn't working.
I am a lifelong wire fan. It was at least a penalty and he should get a 1 game ban imo.
Attempting to break things down and inviting responses like you have is pretty pathetic. If you can't see that it was a bad challenge then further discussion with you is futile.
However, i will go with dangerous contact as an offence, but i'd have no arguments if the judiciary charged him with 'tool like behaviour' and gave him a small ban.
Grow up.

Then we agree to disagree.
I broke things down, because, many people were being carried away on a tide of emotion. Bad challenge!. I'm sorry, no. A hard BUT effective challenge, yes. At times, RL is like boxing, show some weaknesses, and your opponents will exploit them. Bridge wanted to show he wont be intimidated, fair play to him. IF Bridge went and got the opponents head, I would be advocating a ban. As he didn't, I wont.
Grow up. No. ner, ner, nerner ner.

| Quote: lefty goldblatt "I had the radio on last night, and Mssrs French and Rooney on Radio Manchester had this down as decapitation, and I feared the worst for the forthcoming disciplinary hearing.
I've just watched the sky+ of this match, and I've not seen ANYTHING illegal in this incident..
1) Bridge attempts to tackle the player, brings him up in the air (but not over the horizontal), and the player lands on the ground, but the tackle is NOT completed
2) Bridge then completes the tackle, with a forearm to the CHEST (fist not clenched).
3) Cue hysteria from ALL commentators and Bradford fans alike, due to them previously being "hard done to" by the officials.
Can anyone inform me where/when
a) anything illegal has happened in the above 3 instances
b) tackling hard in our game has been abolished. Kevin Tamati/Mike Nick or come to think of it, ANY tough tackling player, of ANY generation, of ANY team must have been "laughing their cobblers off" at the over-exageration over a hard tackle incident.
I've said this before. The 3 point game used to have a legend (Bill McLaren) commentate on their sport, and if that incident happened in his code, he'd've merely have said "little bit af argy-bargy there, but let's look back at that fantastic try scored a few minutes ago"....and that would have been it. Not with Eddie and Stevo, they want to play Judge Jury and Executioner for anything. They basically want a sanitised sport, which cannot happen in our game. Rough and tumble (that's all it was) and foul play, will always exist in a high contact sport.
Oh, and just before the usual suspects charge in, if it was player "A" for their team, on one of our players, doing the same thing as Bridge, I can assure you, I'd be saying the same thing.
RL, it's a tough man's game, let's not change it, simply because commentators have got "bees in their bonnets" over nothing.'"
so why were you all crying over tommy lees tackle then its a mans game as you say

A crack on the chin is definitively comparable to a forearm on the chest.
I think you have been having a little too much fun.

I see you passed your GCSE in tedry, didn't you, Fun Time.
We were "crying" over a clearly HEAD HIGH (illegal) challenge.
On this occasion, Bridge's forearm hit the chest.
Hope that clears it up for you.
