Yeah a red card for Wakefield on both occassions. Hes done it twice within the start of this season so he could easily do it again. Doesn't matter if he punches Hock into next week, if he leaves your squad a man down thats a massive blow.

Same can be said about Hock though, he could flip at any given minute and that could work against us

Both times were in retaliation and I thought he was unfairly punished in comparison with the other player involved just because 1) Bailey ended up bleeding and 2) Farrell collapsed like a jellyfish. In reality in both instances a yellow card would/should have been sufficient.

I'd be fairly confident that Poore won't start anything but he's proved before that if anyone starts on him there's a damn good chance he will finish it.

To miss out, but wouldn't be upset if Mellars and Lynne swapped round.

Yep I'd go with this.

Lynne to play centre, Mellars to take Wood's spot on the bench. Wood Molloy to miss out.

striking = sending off offence.

Not my choice but there we go. It's something both Mr Hock and Mr Poore should be well aware of by now

I'm sure hock would take a blow for the team if it meant getting wakefield reduced to 12.

Just my opinion but the way lyne performed against Hemel, I wouldn't play him against Widnes

Agreed

Also when we played FC at home he stood and watched for long periods of the game.

So for me he needs to stop cutting corners and put some effort in

If Poore holds back then its a massive risk because Hock could get a red.

If Poore dosn't hold back, still a massive risk as both could get reds. However Poore would walk off and Hock would be carried off.

I doubt it. Liam Farrell has been ridiculed for being put on his bum - but I think he'll have been the one chuckling to himself after the game. Two points, two tries, MOTM award....

It seems like a poor reward for a sending off and a game lost

If the ref had done his job properly, Farrell would have been penalised before Poore took retribution for being elbowed etc in the tackle, cant blame anyone for retaliating.
