No there wasn't, looked bad at the game, when you watch the TV replay he does nothing. However, he should have had a penalty awarded against him for not playing the ball correctly.

and moving off the mark

Alright Smackdown boy, calm down and get back to your PS3.

Made me laugh.

Its only friendly banter some of the comments on here and our site where a little ott. Its good to have a laugh sometimes.

Why are you wire lot going on and on about Sam so called kicking out at one of your players,but choose to ignor the blatent kick in the back of Amos Roberts by Paul Johnson. Come on condem Johnson then.

I bet you're about 4........

Talent is one thing, repetitive displaying of poor sportsmanship and inalbility to control your temper is another.

He does appear to have real talent, but he's not starting out well on the career ladder in consistently displaying his pettiness and downright nasty streak. Some of the best halfbacks have been niggly mithering people and this is seen to be part of the position, but nasty vindictiveness is never a good thing and he seems to be making it part of his game.

Sooner or later it's going to bite him back, and opposition fans are going to enjoy it. He needs to learn to control this so we can look forward to him playing for England/GB without seething everytime we see him.

Because Tomkins is also a smug p***k, which should be a sin bin offence.

you'd only ever have about 6 players on the pitch if that was the case!
