I think it will be that in terms of props but leave Joel where he is and bring Farrell in the SR.

The one major gripe I have about consistency is regarding the Lee Smith incidents. Two pretty clear chicken wing tackles, or at least tackles which push the arm against the natural range of motion / place undue pressure on the joint. Jeff Lima received 1 match for each of his chicken wings against Saints. Lee Smith gets cited for one incident but let off because he lets go (despite already putting pressure on the joint) and the worst one doesn't even get cited. I fail to see where the consistency is. Both of Smith's challenges were as bad if not worse than Lima's yet he gets off scot free.
Was Lima banned just because of the Melbourne connection?

It depends if Cross's work permit comes through.

if it wasnt for sams moment of stupidy, the whole event wouldnt have happened.

im a masive fan of Sam.......but he was crazy for not leaving well alone and taking the 2.
its ended up costing us Coley for 1 game when we are already short of props.
lets hope he learns from it eh?

Rogues, are you implying his permit might come through in time for Wednesday's game - or Saturday's?

Surely not by tomorrow!?? Also is that definitely happening? I might be a bit naive but I would have thought there would have been an official announcement to say we were waiting on a work permit. Dont the permits sometimes take 6 weeks +, whats he doing about training? The season will be over before hes able to play!!

I'd guess they'd wait until he has the permit, makes a club look daft if they announce a signing then it falls through because the player couldn't get a work permit IMO.

If we score in the corner where Josh is unmarked he's hailed a genius. I agree we should have taken the 2, but bit harsh to blame Sam.

if the referee would have blown due to them being offside, none of it would have happened either.

I'm sorry, but Sam never had any intention of trying to score a try from that position. He ran about a metre and then stopped, pointed at the leeds defence whilst turning to the ref.

If you play back the game on Sky, you hear a clear blast of the whistle from Alibert as Mcguire "tackles" Sam - Bailey and another Leeds player then come in as 2nd and 3rd man well after the whistle has been blown. Typical Bailey - instigating the trouble, but always managing to escape punishment.

We got another penalty so he was punished. It didn't deserve anything else.

he threw a punch. surely whether the punch lands or not should be irrelevant?

Did he? The only person who I saw throw a punch was Coley.

EDIT - just had a quick look on the iPlayer and Bailey definitely doesn't throw a punch.

so Coley only has himself to blame
