six stitches later, faking injury was he ?

FFS I was saying how I thought it was good play. I'm not slagging him off, I'm giving the guy credit. It's an experienced thing to do to slow down the game when you're forwards need a rest. Just like putting himself in the scrum was as well. I didn't see any blood at the time so wasn't aware it was a genuine injury but if it wasn't then I'm actually praising him. |

I was more Annoyed at the way the South stand cheered that he was injured OK so it seems he was fine in the end but that's not the point you don't cheer a player being injured.

Can't stand the bloke (Marmite like you say), but that was bordering on genius - very, very smart.

That was the funiest thing  , for one brief millionth of a second I thought that Lee's head injury had got to him and was trying to pack down. Then I realised it was classic Lee Briers  |

Never known a rugby player fake injury like he does. Disgrace to the game. Go and get a round ball!

I didn't particularly like that either, although had it happened at the other end of the pitch to a certain Wigan player I think the exact same would have happened.
Briers at his best really. Noticed after the penalty for a ball steal briers ran about 40 metres to have a go at the silverwood and I think it was Sam who tried to get in his way tickled me a bit. |

Was that the one where he started in an offside position? |

Get over yourself. The guy's a bloody genius and if he'd been playing for you, you'd be saying how wonderful he was.
You should be more worried about loony Luaki who cost you the game and ought to be looking at a long ban. How glad am I that we got rid of him. |

I do genuinely think he was injured, in those first few moments after the incident he really hadn't a clue where he was. Legs gone the lot. I couldn't believe he stayed on the pitch, he was extremely quiet after that and certainly didn't make me cringe when he got the ball like he had done previously, made a few good passes but definitely none of the rip tearing runs he had made earlier. The blood pouring from his head was appalling that the ref didn't make him leave. I couldn't believe that our forwards didn't exploit that and run at him. I just wondered whether the incident at the round ball event last week has impacted on our sport. Did players avoid him knowing he was hurt?
