He isn't condoning what Acton did. He's expressing what was missed.

Well they are giving dirk what for on rugby league banter page

Good for them,without Derek we would be where now?

Who knows , i know we wouldnt be hated as much

We wouldn't have a club in SL..Or does that not concern you?

We can't live life on 'what ifs'

Precisely, so what the chuff you on about then, we have Derek - and all the better for it at the moment

Im not the one whos brought dirks ownership into it you clown

Think your mistaking me for someone else

Greg Bird knew what he was doing, if he was that concussed how come he came back on.

Obviously he couldn't have been concussed, or he wouldn't have been allowed back on. Still a stupid thing for Acton to do though.

Was a bit silly of Jamie but he saw his halfback hit late by a dirty b#####d in Bird and went to say don't do that again please or I will slap u

Afraid he's brought it on himself. Surprised that Bird wasn't cited for what looked like a very reckless challenge, that obviously incensed Acton. there was another on Reynolds, leading to Hopkins first try.

Crooks a predictable Grade B punching, with TWO Catalans players, plus one Catalans who is charged with Grade C punching. And there's Richie Myler with a Grade A tripping - AGAIN! (NFA presumably, as it's only his SEVENTH such offence in his time at Catalans)

Coaches should be reading the riot act to Crooks, his lashing out cost us big time. Not least, Reynolds was clean through only for it to be called back. Was Bird sin binned in that incident? If not, have to ask how they can have three players cited for the punch up, and all stayed on the pitch!

Don't know how many big bans we can absorb for Acton. He missed 14 games across 2 bans last season, and now could be done for the season. Sadly, he's our only front rower capable of being effective for more than 15 minutes at a time

Myler will get a ban for tripping now that he's injured anyway.
