Quote: Gronk! "Different technique, that one sounds fine.

The one people are complaining about is when the 3rd man in attacks the side of the standing players knee.

Such tackles have put Emmitt out for the season, Solomona injured with it and Coley on Moa last week.'"


There were 2 people involved in Solomona's tackle were there not, and he was still moving when the contact occurred.

Legal, and utterly unremarkable in other words

If there were 2 people and he was still moving then his ample size will have probably caused it icon_eek.gif

Tony Smith needs to sort out his own players tackling technique, sore loser, Wigan appear to be getting a lot of people jealous, MM has kept his opinions to himself under extreme pressure for nearly 2 seasons, well done to him.

I think the issue here is that the RFL, in typically amateurish fashion, havent explained fully what the rule is. I think they fully intended to mean when the player attacks the side of the knee, whether held or not this should be punished as it is dangerous, but hitting the front or back of the leg (not knee) should be fine eg. the one Lima got banned for against Leeds was not dangerous and I know as Ive had it done to myself many times and always got up straight away though I admit when your leg bends round it can be a little painful but its clumsiness and not agression and above all should not come with a ban.

What the RFL needs is clarity once they can clearly explain every rule then they will be able to have a consistent disciplinary and I think there needs to be a representative from every single team on the panel. I realise thats a lot of effort but it eliminates the unfairness as most of the time they have a link to Leeds and thats probably why Leeds players always get off with a lot worse than any Wigan or Saints player would.

Did you miss the bit where the RFL said the player was still moving and there was nothing wrong with the tackle.

There were two men in both the Emmitt and Solomona tackles

That`s why Leeds players get away with a lot worse,,,,,, Are feckin stupid? On the other hand that`s why we have Redhall in our pockets and we bribe the refs too you know. In fact if we didn`t do that we might not have got into SL next year and would be 7th instead of 6th in the League. But then again you have had the same done to you as Lima did to the Leeds player. No doubt you are much tougher than the Leeds player who went off injured and several others who have missed the odd game cos there softcocks unlike you who is dead hard hey? Nob.

Look at last years CC Qfinal, Leeds got away with murder, they shouldnt have been in the final, they were a joke and the final was a sad sight. Look at both of last years play off games with Leeds, non stop cheating from Leeds. Wake up, Leeds just can't stop cheating

icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif You are funny.
Now if you are a Wigan fan and can remember that far back you might want to look at the clubs previous record on cheating.
How many penalties did Coley give last season?
So what was the cheating Leeds were doing last year and don`t say McGuires attempt to bring down a player.
Next you will say Abletts clumsy challenge on Tomkins was all about him cheating.
Cheating is somewhat different to poor technique or late in the tackle.
Get a grip.

Nah not at all.
Badly timed he was aiming for his chest.
Still wouldn`t class it as cheating though icon_wink.gif

Bullshot

It was a deliberate foul on Sam.

As for Coley, he got binned at Leeds for not being able to defy the laws of physics and stop himself in mid-air before merely touching the kicker within a split-second of the ball being kicked.

Look all I know is that whenever I've been tackled 3 men one round the leg (you know like you're taught as early as like 7) then its never hurt unless they hit the knee which, if you read my post, you'll see I already disagreed with anyway as I do believe that hitting knees is dangerous. I also agree that if theyre held (as in fully not moving and the ref has shouted held) then its against the rules but as long as the ref hasnt said held then in my opinion its fair game to tackle the legs and stop the man moving forward its done to Wigan by every team in the league do we complain? NO because Wigan fans dont have some stupid agenda against Wigan that every other team's fans has against Wigan and seem to miss the fact that their own team does the exact same thing that they're having a go about Wigan doing. Eg what we got moaned at for last year that Hetherington kept coming out in the press moaning about Leeds were doing by the end of the season (not as well clearly) and did anyone kick off about it from Wigan? No because we, like everyone with any real Rugby League knowledge, know it was completely legal. If it was so bad and was going to cause injuries and ruin the sport then why did every other team try and copy it? Because they were only really moaning because theyd been caught napping. It would be like if Ferrari updated their F1 car and everyone else left theirs the same then moaned that the Ferrari was too fast! (Much like that Brawn when Button was the World Champion actually)

On the subject of Leeds how can any Leeds fan ever moan about Wigan doing a "dangerous tackling technique" when Smith did all those in our last match and is doing chicken wings week in week out? Clearly deliberate too you cant accidentally lift someones arm around their back. You can accidentally hit a knee when aiming for a thigh or whatever.
