Following on from Singleton's cheap shot Leeds are making quite a name for themselves.

If Wigan sent him back out purely to get an extra substitute then that in itself needs looking at. That's how it was explained by the Sky commentary team. It's a ridiculous rule. It was plain to see he was unable to carry on due to foul play and his welfare should have been put before a 'free sub' in my view.
As for Ferres, there was a comment on his twitter feed which said he apologised to Gildart. Probably as sincere as his marriage vows!!

I don't think whinging about what the Leeds fans are saying really cuts much ice, people in glass houses an all that.
But it was pretty bad and although there were other players involved in the tackle, I'm not sure they played much of a part in the execution of the actual crush, Ferres maneuvered Gildart in to the position for the crush to be likely, the rest were just bit parts, a good ban tbh.

Disgusting tackle and imo should have been straight red and a very long ban. It's a neck/breaker and imo cowardly tackle.

Wow.

I'd love to see the worse crusher tackles you've seen? Ferres literally hoisted him up and piledrivered him into the floor with intent to do serious damage.

My view of it is that the sub off is a free interchange but if he comes back on then that counts. I could be wrong but it's more likely the SKY team is.

I thought he had to come back on within 15 minutes to count as a free sub, if he doesn't come back on then it counts. By going back on it's a free sub but then he's taken off straight away so that would then count as a sub so evens itself out anyway. Doesn't make much sense to me.

Fair minded supporters of any team would not condone dirty play. If some numpties want to excuse Ferres for an act that WILL result in a deserved ban, ignore them. Why are some people stooping to their level by getting angry and responding to their idiocy. Ignore them. Most Rhinos fans will hope that Gildart makes a full and speedy recovery.

RL is tough enough without seeing that kind of play.

It was a vile incident that could easily have led to a serious serious injury. How he wasn't red-carded I'll never know.

The sh*thouse can now be planning to put his feet up for a while as he's surely getting a long ban.

Poor from ferres and he should get a ban, but spare me the moral outrage from the dirtiest team around.

Tomkins chicken wing first half seems to have gone under the radar and the grab on burrow was cheap shot.

It was dangerous and ridiculous from Ferres.

Hope Gildart is OK.

You've still got a guy serving a six match ban for deliberate and cheap off the ball headshot and now this deliberate act to injure a player. You've earned the title of dirtiest team.

Maybe the stupidest sentence I've ever read.

When we spend the best part of 7 years attacking the joints come back and talk to me until then keep the noise down.
