Quote: tank123 "Well if you do call tackeling a player six inches above the neck the i guess in Hull it fair. Funny thing is we were so crap today if we played a decent side like Wire, Giants or HKR we would have been hammered.'"

fair point not sure giants or wire but rovers would have wiped the floor with yeah masons barmy army icon_rolleyes.gif

This whole topic is getting ridiculous.

I recently watched a few clips involving players like Kelvin Skerrit, Cowie, Fogarty etc. Now those were incidents where some players involved saw red and probably oversteped the mark - but it was good old fashioned hard rugby.

What has joel done?

Been a little bit silly in taking the ball up first tackle after the scrap.

Any other time in the game that would have been penalty at worst. The photos clearly show he goes in very hard (isn't that what good rugby is about), hits the defender legally and pushes him away whilst still driving forward - isn't that what we want to see from forwards running the ball in?

As part of pushing him away, his arms go up and make later contact to the defenders head. Poor technique maybe but not an intentional attack to the head as it may have looked initially.

This thread can be summarise by:

No intent to hit his head.
Every very intent to run over the top of the defender.

That's exactly what I want to see in pretty much every hit up by a forward.

Quote: inside_man "That's funny. As whenever I see Sam get a high shot, or a pure elbow/forearm to the face I normally just see him get up off the floor a second later and get on with the game.

You all just hate him cos when your sides go out to try and batter him out of the game, he gets up and runs rings around you.'"



Dear Inside man

re above, please see 2009 challenge cup semi final

Regards

Matt King

Quote: post "Joel reminds me of a young Morley, huge talent with a temper but I would rather have a player with fire in his belly and needs reigning in than a player who doesn't seem bothered any day of the week.'"



That's actually a very very good comparison thinking about it.

Quote: TheDoc "Just watched the highligts of the game on SLTV and my first impression (after only watching it once) was that he led with the elbow. Thats all that Ganson had to look at too, one look. It looked dangerous. Maybe with repeat viewings from a thousand angles we might be able to say otherwise but on the day at the time it was the correct decision'"


Yeh I agree it looked dangerous at full speed and Ganson only had one look but had Ganson taken the proper action after the brawl which resulted in Joel running in the penalty tap (which there doesnt seem to be any footage of in any of the highlights), neither Joel nor Yeaman would have been one the pitch.
