| Andy Wilson..
Unfortunately Lima had already blotted his copybook – which was messy enough anyway, only a couple of months into his British career – with the tackle on the young Leeds forward Chris Clarkson that dominated post-match discussion. It doesn't seem to have made it on to You Tube yet, but can be viewed again through the BBC's Super League Show - about 15 minutes in, with Robbie Hunter-Paul's comments five minutes later. "This sort of tackle can cause a lot of problems – you can blow someone's knee out like that, and even end their career," said Robbie, summing up the general outrage at Lima's apparent lack of regard for a fellow professional, and setting the scene for the New Zealander's latest trip to the Rugby Football League disciplinary this week.
It does seem a funny old world when Wayne Rooney can be pilloried for swearing at a television camera, even after issuing an apology through Manchester United, whereas Wigan are apparently happy with Maguire's mealy-mouthed response when asked about Lima's behaviour. "I don't think there was too much in it to be honest," he said. "At the end of the day you get three men in a tackle many times, and unfortunately he [Clarkson] just happened to bend the wrong way."
It will be interesting to see if the disciplinary authorities take the same view.

| Quote: Cruncher "The trouble is that little sh8ts like Kear, who would be nothing at all in normal life - let's face it, he's nothing at all in RL - have actually found that they have influence in this game if they make enough noise (especially if it's in that whiney Yaaarkshire accent - Red Hall always listen more to people who talk like them).
[sizeThe guy has never forgiven us for not giving him a job at Wigan[/size. All I can say about it is thankyou Maurice, that was one bullet we definitely dodged.'"
Maybe if he'd have filled his expenses form in correctly he may still have been here

| I didn't hear the whistle to know whether or not it was a late tackle. I don't think Lima did this on purpose as he would have had to physically put another Wigan player (whoever it was) Underneath the Leeds player trapping his legs. I can only see a warning coming from this. Think Kears comments were not called for. I like Kear and i am a Wakefield fan but feel he does pour hot water on when not wanted at times. Last season seems to spring to mind and look what that got us.

Perhaps Maguire would be more sympathetic to Leeds's position if the entire Leeds establisment hadn't cried wolf over Danny McGuire's self-inflicted injury at the end of last season.
Plus ... Andy Wilson. We know exactly where he's coming from, and it's no surprise whatever to see that he also is doing his bit to influence the game's judiciary.

I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew

| Mr Used To Be and Mr Never Bloody Came Close.
If I ever needed my position on the matter vindicating they have just done it.
Kear is a SL coach - hope he gets don't for bringing the game into disrepute.

| maybe we should just stop tackling players round the legs?
ffs they teach u7s to go for the legs.....so we cant tackle high, grab arms, go round legs, grab bolox, drag into touch by the shirt, .........not a lot of body left to tackle is there?
and Kear should be charged with bringing the game into disrepute

But then Hetherington could complain about us tackling around the waist, saying that we're obviously going for the bollox. Not that this would be a probelm for him personally, for obvious reasons.

| Jeff Lima was binned for "tackling the standing leg below the knee" by Silverwood with advice from his TJ's.
If they understand that "Standing" means stationary which it does they are talking utter nonsense. At no time in the incident was Clarkson standing or stationary.
He was running, pumping his legs and driving the Wigan tacklers back. At that point Lima tackled him and the point of impact was the thigh.
Why there is all this about tackling a standing leg I don't know.
It will be interesting to see if Jeff is charged and the nature of the charge. If it is the same as the offence for sin binning then they are setting a dangerous precedent.
Jeff Lima tackled a man running with the ball.
Do they intend abolishing that?

LOL.
what about around the ankles? What about ankle taps? The list goes on and on and on - it's bloody ludicrous.

| Some of these reactions on this board are insensitive and slightly embarrassing. John Kear is only trying to reclaim his prestigious crown from last year. Something that as a Wigan fan I can sympathise with as we're hoping to retain our title.
A valiant attempt Mr Kear, but you must do better I'm afraid.

Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

| Why don't we just allow one person to make a tackle, and maybe have a piece of cloth hanging off the shorts so when it's ripped off, the tackle is complete? That way, there'll never be another injury in SL. I can't see the Aussies being able to beat us at this....................

| Well Mr Kear, thanks for the motivation for Wakefield v Wigan, think your guys will know all about tackling after this game.
Mr Bitter not worth a comment.
