he plead guilty so i don't see where the problem is?? apparently he hit him directly on a knock-out point if he had been 1/2 inch either way it wouldn't have made same black out??

Actually I was referring to the treatment that is metered out to S.Tomkins match after match with the refs turning a blind eye.Now he's finally copped a gud un, but thankfully it's not too serious, which it could have been.
Simple enough?

Sam Tomkins has took the big hits and nasty tackles since I first saw him when he was sixteen years of age.

He is the most prodigious talent we have seen in our game since Shaun Edwards, and he's equally as strong mentally, and physically.

Let the rest of the teams worry about him, he'll be o.k.

He's a tough little b*gger who just loves playing Rugby League.

Which is why everyone who slags him off wishes he was in their team.

I don't think Raynor was running across to try and clatter Sam, he was coming across in desperation to try and stop a score. Unfortunately, things didn't work out that way, and it ended in a red card. That, and a 2 game ban, is fair punishment.

Absolutely right, and so is Rogues. I can't stand Sam, because of his antics, and who he plays for, but I can guarantee that if he played for Wire I'd be his biggest fan.
I shall, however, put my hatred to one side throughout the Four Nations, where I would play him at six. He really is a great talent.
