Jesus - did you watch the game? Leeds were outplayed, but.....the penalty against Ablett was for offside, nothing else. His tackle on briers was totally legal. Briers punch to the head was unprovoked and should have resulted in a red card. From that point, nobody knows how the game would have gone, but considering briers had a hand in most things good that Warrington did post that incident, I think it's fair to assume things could have been different.
I am not overly concerned at today's result. I think a few decisions went against us although I am know the best team won. We have to improve next week. The game that needs winning will occur in 2 weeks, after the last few years we ll know that. Good luck to Warrington from here on in, we'll probably see you in 2 weeks, fingers crossed.

"Nonsense"!
For once Leeds were "Cack" today and were completely outplayed from 1 to 17, you seriously cant be implying that Warrington only had one good player on the pitch today surely... And we wont even go there with regards a near 5 meter forward pass that resulted in one of your trys today... But i bet you didnt even see that did you??

| Thought Waterhouse was exceptional today too. Just hope we can get Myler back before the end of the season, Grix is wasted at half-back.

| Quote: DP_wwrlfc "Briers definatley should have got red it was an unprovoked punch to a player with his back turned.
Despite that Leeds can't say it had any bearing on the result, they was in a winning position and went on to get completely dominated. Westwood was back to his best after what seems to have been a slightly below par season from what I have seen. But the main man IMO was M Monaghan, that's the best performance I've seen from him for a couple of years.'"
While I don't condone punching, it was hardly 'unprovoked'. Ablett's shirt-collar grab and throw, catching Briers face on the way, was a good start, then he clearly said something to Briers. To send off Briers would have obliged Childs to send off two or three from each side for the short brawl that followed. As Briers has a first-class disciplinary record it's not much of a call by the ref not to send him off, nor would it be to impose a minor punishment

| Seems that Lee Briers is the first person in the history of the game to stay on the pitch when (possibly) deserving a red, and then goes on to influence the result!

| I thought it was good sensible reffing to be honest, the fans pay a lot of money to go to these games and they want to be entertained by top players they don't want the game to be decided by the ref waving a card.
If he'd have sent Briers off we would have missed a masterclass from one of the games few remaining greats so rugby league was the winner today.

| Does anyone know the chapter & verse on the EGP? Can Lee use the EGP for a punch & escape a ban, given that Lee has an excellent disciplinary record.

Wella Huaki (sp) did last week. Take a look on the RFL website disciplinary section £300 no ban. Before anyone gets smart the ban could have carried over into next season .

You of course (or do you?) miss the full-on irony of using this as an example to which to compare today's incident!

| the game need that bit of biff at the time, I bet stevo loved it even if Eddie didn't.
it reminded me of that classic biff v pies, when Cullen was flattened by goodway, Cullen waited till he passed him, got up, ran after him and give goodway a right hook, and some.
Every player from both sides tan in.
The funniest part though was coach Tony barrow throwing a tantrum on the pitch side.
Arh what days of pure rl bliss

Yes, he was sent off in the game for a strike to Elima, something Briers wasn't, a bit cheeky i know

Just a little bit... but that is also why I suspect the offence grade the video review panel will charge Briers with will mean that an EGP will lead to a one match suspension! If that does happen & what impact that has in two weeks time we will have to wait & see. I think the chances of Briers copping more than one game & keeping him out of the GF in the Wire get to OT are slim to non-existent.
