Wonder if he stopped to think back to last year when he was unable to move with his knee and how he felt then?

you mean when play was only stopped as wigan players and fans alike hurled abuse at a writhing in agony mcguire.

Last night McGuire was right, shenton had not suffered a head injury as he feigned to at first and that was his problem with the blown whistle. Once the referee realised Shenton had only injured his arm he rightfully continued play. No head injury, and not obstructing play then no stoppage. case closed.

I thought the Wigan players assaulted him on the ground? At least, that's what was alleged by some at Leeds? Didn't Tommy stamp on him or call him names or something?

McGuire got abuse because he tripped Carmont in a cynical professional foul. I was there and gave him grief and and I had no idea he was injured. The Rugby Gods' work was done.


That's irrelevant. Any player should appreciate when another player has received a serious injury and requires treatment. Shenton was too close to the PTB and was in clear trouble.

And...hang on...you're saying Shenton faked a head injury? Are you fcking stupid? The lad has just dislocated his elbow and he's faking a head injury? I can only deduce you're an idiot of the highest order; the offspring of several generations of enthusiastic in-breeding combined with your mother dropping you on your head (perhaps deliberately), though that might only explain your looks. That is truly just about the most moronic thing I've ever heard someone say on RLFans. Congratulations.

Did you comment similarly on Roger Meli's attempted tackle on Ryan Hall off the ball just prior to Hall's try?

I was at the game so didn't see it live but noticed it on the BBC highlights yesterday. It's was very poor from McGuire especially considering he's been a victim of a very bad injury himself.

Leeds defence sailed very close to the wind on plenty of occasions. I noticed at the game the Saints players seemed to complain a lot about Leeds players interfering around the ruck and watching it back 2 players inparticular were lucky not to be penalised on a good few occasions. Those 2 were Webb and McGuire who were constantly lying on and messing about with their hands in Saints players faces.

Nah but FGB looked at the Ref and pointed to his head to indicate a head injury.

Always Sinfield down as a very classy individual, shown himself to be a bit if a small time mard a'rse with his rant. Considering most of his doubters were from "the best fans in the world".

Bitter bitter boy

Bitter? 3 trophies in 2 years for us old boy and you still have NEVER beaten us in a major final. Carry on...........

I dont understand the criticism of Sinfield by people, I am an ardent wigan fan but can appreciate the many talents of a player from another club. Sinfield throughout his long and dedicated service to the Leeds club has always been a complete R. L. player and this years G.F. was no exception, his speech at the end I thought was just right. He has even made the editorial column of the Guardian in praise of him, I have read the Guardian for more than half a century and that has never happen before so he must be doing something right. Let's give credit where credit is due, now Ryan Bailey he is a complete idiot and thug

The poster is claiming Shenton had 'feigned' a head injury.

Maybe he's concussed. Blow to the elbow perhaps.


Nope, 'cos I didn't notice it and I've deleted the final now.
