I can't believe they have sent him a warning letter over it. Cunningham wasn't tackled. That's like saying dont tackle hard in case of undue pressure on whatever part of the body. Nothing surprises me though with the RFL.

So, we've been warned for tackling. What next? A warning for running, passing backwards and kicking the ball?

Indeed, as was the warning letter.
I don't think anyone worth listening to was actually asking for him to be banned though. |

Unbelievable!
The ref hadn't called held so Tomkins did what anybody would do and stopped cunningham offloading the ball by taking him down to the floor.
Tomkins should send the warning letter back to the RFL telling them where to stick it! |

Anything about Cunningham and his head-high "diving spear" tackle attempt?

You'd have legs like that carrying 28 stone around.

[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

| Warning letter for a standard tackle 
What about when players come in 3rd man to finish a tackle off and they hit them in the rib area if he breaks some ribs would they get a warning letter?
They either need to sort this out lay a law down or let it all go  |

The only person at fault was the referee for not shouting held.

If they don't get any blame for not hearing a hooter that every other person in the stadium heard, they're not going to be blamed for not shouting held are they!
Refs don't make mistakes according to Cummings. |

I've actually seen the letter. It's from Stuart Cummings telling Tomkins to pick on someone his own size.

If the roles were reversed and KC had done the same to Sam, he would have snapped his leg in two. The RFL realise this and have sent him a letter.
Fair enough.
