| Acton is an outstanding player. I hope he's at our club for a long time.
BTW he hasn't been found guilty yet.

How much longer will the club tolerate this lads behaviour? He's a liability.
I do hope the Catalan players who were raking the faces of the Widnes players on Saturday are going to get considerable bans
As for Jamie , I don't recall him doing anything , I do recall a few high shots from the Wigan captain

The tackle the left Burgess injured??? think Acton was the one who twisted his leg.
Didn't really see a lot in it, but there does seem to be a common theme with him, and would be a massive miss in a massive game - he has been excellent so far

Even if he does get a ban we have good players returning from injury or just waiting to play.

Didn't see much in it myself, but it's the only incident I can think of that someone may have picked up on

I'm just about to start watching the second half,I'll look to see if there was anything else.
BTW - A couple of minutes after that tackle, Higham was involved in a tackle with Tony Clubb, when Clubb kicked out into Mickey's chest, then Mickey pushed him away and Clubb got the penalty.

| Can't see anything in that tackle that would suggest Jamie has done anything wrong . I'm the first to admit Jamie does stupid things at times but can't see anything in that tackle.

Agree we need to understand the refs more, but let's not kid ourselves that they have it in for Acton, he needs to learn quickly or an aweful lot of potential will go down the pan

| Jamie has made mistakes in the past but on this occasion he seems to have suffered from the new rule that came in this season stating that players should not accidentally damage high profile international wingers - especially if they play for Wigan.....
The tackle may have been clumsy at worst but there was certainly no intent and trying to control the tackle in those conditions cannot have been easy.
What is most irritating is the complete lack of consistency from the RFL - different players different rules it seems. Fine to try to take a player's head off with a swinging arm with clear intent but if a tackle results in a twisted knee on a very slippery surface then it becomes a problem. I genuinely do not get that logic....

| I dont think thats the incident he's been cited for. The Clubb incident is more relevant.
Acton doesn't really do much wrong hence the Grade A. Clubb sees him coming round and sticks his arm on Actons shoulder,Acton then removes Clubbs arm using both hands in a dangerous way < thats what I think the review panel have pinged him for.
Hicks didn't react,no complaints from Clubb.Actons mistake was reacting to niggle in the same tackle,had he not swung a couple the review panel would have probably skipped it.
