No charges at all from the game on Saturday - Crosby cautioned. Looks like the disciplinary realise we don't play netball, even if some of the fans do.

looks like the disciplinary panel actually had ex-players on it who realise a bit of aggression is what is needed every now and then in this sanitised world of contact sport...

Maybe the R/L have realised that the blood and thunder, bit of biff and more than a touch of niggle in a match gets fans on their feet more than some of the stereotyped rugby that is dished up on a regular basis.

There is a thread going on at present on the Leeds board asking if MM will ever want to go back to his spiritual home of Leeds, this comes only 2 days after they would have lynched him if they could have got hold of him.

Outstanding!

I thought they'd now down to a bit of pressure but thankfully they obviously took each incident on it's own merits.

Leeds as a team need cautioning for keep piling in inciting trouble just because somebody has dared to show a bit of aggression in a tackle against them.

How can this be??

We're a team of houses aren't we??

Hopefully Wigan fans will now stop b*clocking on about Ryan Bailey and Danny McGuire now they've accepted the wisdom of the disciplinary and realised they've done nothing wrong. I won't hold my breath.

Having watched the MM tackle, I honestly cannot see the high tackle. Yes he goes in hard, to me his contact was initially shoulder and then his arm flaps over the top of Peacock's head.

Bateman, again from the TV evidence there's nothing to be seen. However what was clear in the previous scuffle was Bailey pushing Bateman's face with his closed fist. Rather an odd move which I can only interpret as provoking and technically an attack to the head. Well done Bateman for not getting drawn in.

Bailey played for Queens so enough said....ironically so did Mick Mac, coincidence I think not.

unbelievable lol

MM is just one of those players, everyone hates him, but if their club signed him tomorrow they would love it.

And why not? Hes a great player and a great entertainer.

In recent years I always thought the same about Jimmy Lowes. Unpleasant, nasty niggly little git, but got the job done..

TBF regarding the McIlorum incident it was purely the unwise timing (10 secs after being talked to wasn't the brightest idea) IMO. Had it come after 10 mins of no incidents he'd been ok. The Bailey/Bateman looked like handbags really but think ref got it right to take them off for 10 mins, I'd fancy that things would've got out of hand if they remained on.

Regarding that McIlorum thread on the Leeds board. ONE, yes ONE person asked should we get him. ONE.

Are you not aware that on RLFans if ONE person says something it automatically becomes the view of ALL the supporters of that club.

There's a thread on VT entitled "Dirty Wigan"
If you want a good laugh read some of that.

The scary thing is I think McIlorum would flatten Jimmy Lowes as well given half the chance He's not as clever with ball in hand as Lowes was but he's a scarier prospect in defence and in general then Lowes was imo.

I kept replying to Saints and Leeds fans in the past couple of years who said Micky Mac was a cheap shot coward saying he's anything but. He's as tough a player as I've ever seen and he wouldn't take a backwards step against anyone. The going over he gave Warea-Hargreaves in the WCC proved that and if that didn't then him dismantling the Leeds pack and going head to head with Peacock surely must have.
