Quote: WYSIWYG "We need players like Acton. They are the enforcers. It's the big Leigh forwards who are laying the platform for our backs to win these games. Acton is another Tim Street. A real crowd pleaser and fires the rest of the team up. Well done Jamie Acton.'"

WYSI Good to hear from you , was good to have a chat at the recent Fax game , hope to see ya again soon .Charlie knows .

Quote: Alan "Agreed - providing he channels his enthusiasm/skills. He won't be much good to us, if he's off the pitch. Like I say, we finished the game with ten men. Even 'Fax may have been able to take advantage of that!

Acton will always be on the edge. He's an enforcer. It isn't a gentleman's game. The opposition are wary of him. Sometimes he'll get sin binned or red carded, but more often than not he'll soften the opposition up. Timmy Street was the same. Every team needs them.

We gave them far too much ball especially 1st half. We all know which team went out there to target players and try winding up tactics, if you're going to try to rough up our pack this year you're going to have a hard 80 min.

Quote: TV BOY "It will be interesting to see what Adam Higson really did to the Dewsbury player, '"


It is quite clear on CTV, Higson was very lucky to stay on the field and will be charged.

I don't think it was anywhere near as bad as the Dewsbury lads shot.

There wasn't much difference between them, they were both premeditated attacks to the head and deserved similar punishments.

Unfortunately i'd agree. Higson's didn't look great when I saw it from the far side yesterday. After seeing it on the Dewsbury highlights from the near stand it was a shocker. Would imagine both him and the guy who flattened Kes will pick up bans. Acton and Kurt Haggerty will be fine though.

I have to also agree having watched it on LCTV Higson's tackle is a shocker & will probs see him banned this time. The one on Ryan is also a shocker

Not seen the footage yet, but there's a screenshot on Twitter and it's fair to say it doesn't look great.

Think AJ will be missing the Workington game so Pownall to replace him.

He had a bad game there last season so for more than one reason he'll have a point to prove.

AJ took an elbow to the face earlier in yesterdays game by his "victim".

Weird one Adams as the player took the ball and Adam hit him at a weird angle. Deffo straight arm though so would expect some form of punishment.

The one on Kez was a shambles.

Haggy's bin was stupid really, ignoring ref after mouthing off at him wasn't the smartest.

Think Acton got binned because he had wound up pretty much every Dewsbury player and the ref (though don't think he threw any punches even after the kez incident).

Grayston's trip on greg at the end after he knocked on was petty and he should get a word in his ear about that but looks like he got away with it.

We do seem to be collecting these incidents at the moment, hopefully it doesn't harm us at some stage later in the season.

The past month or so a few teams have tried to bully us when they can't match us in the rugby department. We have stood up to those bullying tactic each time, and yes we've done some bullying of our own. We have shown now that we won't be bullied and each team that has tried has A) failed to bully us and B) failed to beat us. Hopefully now teams will realise its not going to work against us and try a new tactic as we can't keep losing players to bans due to it.

The only exception to this was probably the Fax game when we got off to a shocking start and we then started to bully them and throw them off their game. Difference is, it worked for us and we came back from 24 - 0 down to win! So maybe teams should be trying to bully Fax and not us because not one team that has tried so far has met with any success.

agree with that nozzy, i think the fax game is the only one we started the niggles in and it worked a treat.
The others we've had the opposition try it and not had the same impact. Hence top of the league icon_smile.gif
