Well I think they have 9 full timers,and all fully train together,I suppose part time players will still be used as an excuse when we see a scoreline of 54-0 to Leigh.

Think you will find they were given a scrum for a knock on, remember thinking at the time I couldn't understand why it hadn't been overturned for a penalty to us

Thats right I stand corrected,

First offence always stands IIRC.

Definitely a text book sending off, but I'm not convinced there was intent. The rule book says that it's a sending off, so it's a sending off. My first reaction to the Sheffield players backslapping was that they were reacting like any players do to a big hit. Nothing I've seen changes that view.

The stiff arm though? That was a definite straight red too. He can consider himself lucky on that one.

Sorry reffy,Its a spear tackle,the head contact to floor is behind the on-coming player..Not what your seeing..But the TJ does see it.

Doesn't look like his back to me.

Would agree the red would have been a bit harsh just for the tackle, it was the fact the ball had long since come loose, the tackle was complete and the ref had stopped the game before the spear tackle was put in. Deserves the red.

The high shot that got Gregg stretchered off he holds his hands up straight away but he definitely went for Gregg after the ball had gone. Think he intended to take him out but not high, ended up getting him right across the neck which is why it was so bad. Deserved a red.
