Quote: apollosghost "Looks to me like he clips him with his forearm, hardly the savage attack some are making it out to be.
If Hicks had given an eight point try fair enough, but a ban would have been ridiculous.'"
When Sam Tomkins was knocked out by Gareth Raynor at Odsal the offence was considerably much worse (to the extent Raynor was sent off) but wasn't awarded an 8 point try.
Although Marshall was awarded one a few weeks ago which I thought was a soft one at the time and we were fortunate to receive.
