How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

How unlike you to be the dissenting voice or the supporter of the downtrodden stayaway fan.
Its not too far to watch the Wire. |

 Very well said. |

Just applying a bit of common sense, amidst the welcome euphoria around the club there seem to have been a distinct change in approach on the pitch. Not only is foul play and fighting being appreciated in the cause it seems to be being encouraged. With the playoffs approaching it would be ridiculous if fans were blaming suspensions for a lack of success.
Seven penalties per game is obviously not a problem but brawling is.
Fans not attending is a repetitive whinge from a few posters, my posts have nothing to do with that subject. |

Your concerns are noted and appreciated.
Let's move on and carry on going places at pace eh.
Thanks

First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can.

Let me state loud and clear that as a coach and the Dad of a young referee, I do not condone foul play.
BUT
there comes a time when enough is enough, and I totally agree with Alex's Dad here.
My old school rugby coach was the most influential person in my young rugby life. His stance was, the first time you get hit just shake your head and smile at them. The second time you get hit, you shake your head and laugh back at them. The third time, you give it back and rest of the team better be right behind you. |

Having watched the brawl again on CTV I have to say it was more like a Union rolling maul, loads of shirt grabbing and not much action.

If you can slow it down it looks like someone gives Heaton a sneaky upper cut as he is being dragged away about 2 seconds into the ruck. I'm not sure who it was.

I presume Bate not playing today was down to a early guilty plea when will we find out his ban Tuesday?

Brad Fitler "If the ref's decision decides your game. You haven't done enough prior."
Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.
[b]Littlerich wrote[/b] Widnes will be glad to get away from Leigh. They've been regularly pumped, roasted and left in the alley-way by the lobbygobblers. Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

I think he has until a week on Tuesday to enter a plea.

| Quote: Brian Wood "Sadly though we didn't get the penalty until after the brawl. The ref and TJ's either didn't see it or decided not to bother. That was always on the cards after Higson's first crunching tackle on Heaton
er Higson was on the wing where w were sat first half and he led with his elbow in most of his tackles and is one niggly git, hands in the face when our player was tackled, so he aint no angle guys, good player but not one I like with those tactics.
There are two sides to every story, never seen Ben Heaton like that ever, so something must have rattled his cage and I wonder what???
HIGSON
