Cahill had some 'daft-looking' protective equipment shoved down the back of his shirt which a number of us in the East were "commenting" on when he first stood on the line in the first half. But obviously, this kind of protection is required with the kind of injuries that players are increasingly suffering from.

Good news about Bridge, but agree he should be rested for Cas if not strictly 100%. When's Ben Westwood back?

Can we rest Bridge?

Unless Russell is somehow allowed to play, we need Ratch at FB so Atkins and Bridge in the Centres?

Move Joel into centres and play Ormsby if necessary.

Carney would rip Ormsby to shreds, he is still learning his trade. play Bridge and Joel!

Would rather risk Bridge than do that tbh. Bridge & Monas' partnership won us the game last Thursday.

I was down at the stadium earlier, he was warming up seperately from the team. My guess is that we're managing him through training as we are through games, personally i dont think we can rest him, not with the other personnell out at the moment, the only important thing now...is the next game.

Ormsby is in the 19, TS obviously preparing for Bridge not being fit.

That is two Wire full backs "wiped out" by Widnes players. If that wasn't contact with the head then I give up.
If Hock had made that contact, he would have been banned sine die.

But no-one is saying that there wasn't contact with the head, just that it wasn't particularly deliberate or malicious:

"Leuluai was not penalised for the incident at the time and the Rugby Football League's match-review panel have ruled that the player has no case to answer.

The panel's ruling was that the "player makes a legitimate attempt to tackle and makes contact direct to the head of opponent, however opponent is dipping while trying to re-gather ball".

It baffles me that we've had endless debates on these boards about "return of the biff", "hardman enforcers", "game going soft with outlawing of shoulder charges" etc then want to throw the book at the opposition when something happens to one of our guys.

How often is contact with the head deliberate/malicious? "Biff" and dangerous play aren't the same thing.

So, let me get it straight. Matty Russell carried out a vicious attack on the Widnes player's shoulder with his kisser by dipping into the tackle.

The discipline committee must have had there dark glasses on again as you can see that Leuluai clearly dips his shoulder going into the tackle, which for me is a deliberate shoulder charge with the intention of taking Matty out of the game.
Does a player have to get paralyzed or suffer a career ending injury before the RFL clamp down on these instances.
The same goes for the insidious "Cannonball" tackle practiced on a regular basis by a certain team just of the M6, not far from Warrington, if they are losing and can't win by fair means, cripple a player. This tackle is banned in Australia, why not here ?
