I saw a big bloke try to tackle a really small bloke but sadly got there a touch late and that difference in size took over. He was clumsy for sure but Sky blew it all out if proportion for IMO.

Like I said earlier I think the game is being watered down too much at the minute. An incident like this would have hardly been given a mention 10 or even 5 years back.

I never said Pettybourne was in the right. I said that to give them both the same punishment was wrong.

Don't be bringing that up. They'll be writing to RLFANS complaining they're being embarrassed and made to look silly.

amazed nobody(including Sky) noticed Pettybourne throw elbow to Woods head when on the floor.

Really? I and everyone I was with last night agreed was straight red card and IMO deserves two match ban.

One thing I will say. Big Alex isn't a dirty thuggish type of a player and plays the game hard and fair. It wasn't intentional unlike other cowardly thuggish behaviour I've seen

What is amazing is you seeing something that didn't happen.

Utter rubbish , it was a cynical attempt to take out huddersfields only play maker.

Utter rubbish, we are the softest team in super league and are a team that has no instruction to take key players out unlike other teams .....

It amazing isn't it. That when an opposition player commits foul play it's "cowardly thuggish behaviour"' when it's one of your own it's "(insert name here) isn't that type of player". No yes, really, the hypocrisy from over the hill. I suppose it's human nature to want to defend your own, there's plenty on here do it with Wigan players.

Walmsey knew exactly what he was doing. I've seen it done many times by pretty much every club including Wigan. The idea is to try and make sure your fully committed, if you succeed they you'll get away with it and rattle a half back. He knew full well that Robinson was going to pass the ball. He hit him late, not ridiculously late, but definitely late. There was also direct contact with the head which is what got him sent off.

My comment was directed at the St Helens supporters posting on this thread prior to the Walmsey incident who have gone missing since.

Have you suddenly become Nathan brown? Ironic really when a couple years ago brown said if referees don't protect the little guys then he will ask the forwards to do it" oh how times change

Nah, he,s a clumsy soft lad, he could lodge in with Micky Mac for a couple of years and he wouln't be any different.
