yep it would of been a double sin bin for me if it was my call, the refs have no gonads so easy to put it on report

Straight red and a slap on the wrist for me.

It's a joke he should have been sent off.

I know one game doesn't make a player mediocre but I didn't think he played that well after all the hype about him. Wonder if Wigan are on the slide this year as their pack was also well dominated by Huddersfield's plus little creativity from their pivots....

I don't like thugs and McIllorum is one of the worst; I find nothing in his style of play to admire.

If you felt the same way about Terry Newton playing in a Wakefield shirt fair play. People like different styles of player. I love a bit of mongrel in my hooker that's why Newton will always be one of my favorite players and Micky McIllorum is also one of my current favorite players.

nothing wrong with a bit of grunt but both players have been guilty of purposely taking a player out and with Newton it was a bit nasty.
not nice being on the end of a thuggish act

As I said, I can find nothing to admire in a player who's greatest attribute is a sly dig or a short fuse, regardless of what colour shirt they're wearing.

I think you do both Newton and McIllorum a disservice if you think the ability to give a sky dig was/is their "greatest attribute".
