The other factor with combat sports like boxing is the rest period, you may only fight three or four times a year. With concussion injury the rest period is a major consideration.

Really surprised that Hill was left out for the Good Friday match, felt he had been performing pretty well especially against Penrith.

His potential is scary.

I’ve lauded Hill I think he’s going to be a hell of a player but I’ve also noticed a few posts about Eseh almost as if he’s a bit of a project signing.

Eseh was really pushing for contention at a genuine member of the top 17 squad. His injury came at a really bad time and it’s almost as if he has become a bit of a forgotten man.

I can assure you, when he is fit Sam will be pushing for a genuine place in the 17. He offers something totally different to our other props as he is a natural off-loader.

He became a solid target last year after our home game against Trinity when he had a bit of a running tussle with Isa and came out on top. The lad is the real deal.

The key for us is having a plan around all these props because they are all SL ready and they need managing. Thankfully that is something we have been very good at but I do see the age and number of talented young props we have as our greatest test of how good we actually are at it.

Where does it state that referees should consider mitigating factors when making their decisions (serious question)?

Warrington not standing square in half these ptb lot messier than Wigan and we got pigged every time

Hopefully we’re seeing the start tonight of the refs ignoring people lying down, rubbing their heads/necks etc. Matty Dufty and Sam Lisone have both tried it on and been ignored.

Great to see.

And another. Thewlis lying down like he’s been run over by a truck, Williams and a few others running in to the ref and all ignored.

It’s good to see though I did think that would be classed as a shoulder charge.

Before I stopped watching football a good 15-20 years ago I said that any player running in on the ref like that should get an automatic 1 match ban. I’d like to see that in RL. Give an 1 match ban to any player going into the ref appealing for decisions, sticking hands in the air to try and get someone sin binned etc. Would soon stop them.

Thank you. I haven’t seen that, very interesting.

I
Definitely agree about players encroaching the referee and a ban. Thewlis should have been made to leave the field.
