This is where I don’t get the rules

Contact above the neck is an automatic sin bin regardless of being deliberate or not

Isa clearly belted Tommy in the chin, we lost one of our best players off the back of that and nothing was done to Isa

My view exactly.

Pathetic comment.

Vasty in a way I understand what he saying, TJ to me looks in great shape but you are always nervous every time he takes it in if he’s going to get back up and that is just the way his body his made by the look of things

My view is because Tom is the only player we have who ever tries to do anything and you won’t like this but he’s the only player we have that other teams fear.

Without him we are nothing so he gets special attention.

Finally for heavens sake a concussion injury has nothing to do with fitness or your body type. It’s pure bad luck for any player and one he isn’t allowed to play through.

We get nervous when TJ gets hit due to 2 ACL’s and the fact that 90% of our match winning potential has gone.

Truth is one third of the current Trinity team could be made out of paper but who’d know as most of them never do anything that’s ever likely to get them hurt.

Harsh? Maybe but there is some truth in it.

Agree

He would have to improve his defence in nrl but he also wouldnt get caught 3 on 1 every week like he does for us think idea of an extra interchange after 2 hia in a team is a good idea looking at player safety in future if we dont do something to counteract hia happening the game may devolve into glorified touch and pass

In Union, an attack to the head is a red card and they use the VR (TMO) to confirm such things.
Perhaps, when a player has to leave the field injured after a tackle, it should be reviewed and action taken where neccessary.

The Wigan player may cop a ban but, that doesn't help Trinity or Johnstone.

What an idiot you are. You think you know it all. Johnstone like I said as much as I like him is very weak 4th game in he does his ACL against Hull out for a season. Sticks his arm out in first game back against hardaker & is out for what was it 6 week. Gets an arm in the face in 2nd game in & has to go off with an HIA it's a contact sport for gods sake he's not just unlucky it's been too many times now But this is your way Vasty/ Fishermans crap. you love the argument. But I stick by my comment if you don't like it TOUGH

Your ignorance of how injuries work is truly stunning. You have your little paddy frankly you're opinion on this issue is pretty worthless. Shame because it isn’t always. See, no need rest of the nonsense you’ve just posted, nothing to do with ‘my way’ ffs, I just called you out, just live with it.

So we’re turning on Johnstone now as a fanbase? Turn it in, you absolute weapons.

Best player we’ve produced in a generation, people want him to fail so they can say they were tougher playing three games on the spin for Eastmoor B team. Maybe TJ should do himself a favour and sod off somewhere he might be appreciated.

It's laughable isn't it.

The thing that bugs me is all the voices that pop up when we have a hard time are no where to be seen when things are working well.
I sometimes wonder whether we have a load of Cas fans on here that just come on to stick the boot in when they can.

The video refs did review it and all agreed there was nothing in it. If you can watch it back you will see that Isa isn’t even looking at TJ because he’s about to clash heads with Bibby. Was Isa’s arm high, yes. Was it deliberate, not at all.

I agree it was something and nowt. Do I think
Teams target TJ and put him under pressure of course it’s part of the game, do I think players deliberately go to take someone out and injure them for weeks no not all

Lol
