Quote: LewCharnock "I think Smith will be fine and just cop a fine. Hooley 100% dips his head when he's tackled, I'd hope it wasn't in an attempt for punishment for Smith! I have read somewhere that the ref states in field that the 'attacker dips his head' also. If so, there's your defence.
Big blow with Thompson out, he was looking very good in his outings v Hull and Cas.
Mago goes strength to strength and Leeming could be a really shrewd signing.'"
Thompson was a weird one I thought his first drive think first carry in the game he was stunned by he seemed to look a bit dazed and the physio ran over. Then there was something about him getting caught with an elbow/knee which caused the bruise.
Mago and Byrne was our best props and the others were solid. He took 3-4 defenders on every carry and his fend and pass to set French up was class.
