Yeah, like that'll happen .

Yes,I know what you mean!

Careful what you say....Rollin Thunder will spring to Zak's defence...

Saw it but still can't believe he did it. I honestly don't think he knows he's doing wrong.

Certainly does look like he said that. Silly boy.

On twitter he as admitted saying that but as tryed to pass it as banter

I just think the Leeds fans reactions are pathetic.

Some are yes, there are times you can't defend the indefensible.

The lad is either a raging homophobe, or as thick as mince - or possibly both.

Couple that with the constant abuse of the official by the South Stand every time a decision went against Leeds, and it doesn't make for a very edifying showcase for RL at the highest level.

'Banter' just like the LMA tried to pass off Malky Mackays text's last week.Afraid it's the times we live in,you just cannot say these things.An hefty ban and another lesson learnt for the lad.
Also agree with Bren2k comments regarding the South Stand's constant abuse as well,made for great viewing!!

Thought he said "Prick". Thought it more apt for Flanagan's actions than that of a homosexual?

Didn't see anything in Flanagans action, it was just a leg tackle from behind and Hardaker bent his knees so that his feet were up. The main point being there was no twisting or undue pressure placed on the joint unlike the crocodile roll that Peacock did a couple of weeks back.

As for Hardakers alleged homophobic abuse, it'll be interesting to see now whether the RFL take any action or if they'll completely play dumb and pretend it never happened as they in Jamie Peacocks case in the same Warrington game that Zak got done for last time.

how can the RFL ignore this if they was given a direct question from enough viewers to make them take a look at it

McDermott now complaining the sending off cost them the game!! no moon himself cost them the game McDermott new straight away what he'd done by running pitch side.
Bet the southstand wouldn't have been calling the ref a w@ncker if it had been a saints player
