Hes had a long career and hasnt ended anyones career has he?
The ban he did get for this showed clearly that he hit above the knee and slipped down yet he was banned for that still so I think if you want to moan then you've got to take that into account too.
So you really want to get into that argument or are you done?

| Most people have got a conception that Lima is an impact prop, who will come onto the pitch with 20 mins gone. Run in 10 carries make holes in the defence and change the game.
Those people are wrong. At the storm iirc he was a starting prop who laid the platform for the rest of the game. So he run it in. Made metres and did the hard yards.
If you notice. Loads of other players do chicken wing tackles. In the Rugby League Express under the Huddersfield highlights, it looks like one of their guys is using the non ball handling arm as a leverage.
However, due to some people (Wilkin). He has been highlighted early on as a bad tackler. So whenever something dubious happens. People react ott. Lay off the chap.

| Couldn't agree more - has anyone actually ever been injured by one of Lima's allegedly illegal tackles? Certainly not this season, not sure about in the past.

Another pathetic newcomer jumping on the first bandwagon he sees.
I know of no player whose career he's ended to date. Or in fact any player who has even been injured by Wigan's shocking tactic of tackling around the legs.
Is a time ever coming when people like you will be content just to let the game be played, and not seek constantly to find ways to hobble the opposition?

| I think as a Hull fan I was expecting a lot from your 3 Storm signings but have not been blown away by what I have seen. They have been solid though. But that is maybe what they did at Melbourne, which allowed the Slaters, Inglis, Smiths and Cronks to do the flair stuff?

I think you need to give them a bit more time.
Finch has to date played about 3 and a half matches.
Lima is a disappointment, but only in that he's also missed more than he's played, in his case though suspension.
Anyone who thinks that Hoffman hasn't been playing extremely well must have very high standards indeed.

What the RFL should do is to instigate a six sigma project into the types of tackles that actually cause injuries, and which teams/players are most responsible.

The RFL know as much about statistics as my pet goldfish (which has been dead for years).

| I see the RFL have been embarrassed into banning a Leeds player for a whole game.
