I think Westwood is a fantastic aggressive player, however it was a cheap shot & a deliberate attack to the head for all to see which should have resulted in a red card.
He will cop a ban however my understanding is it will not affect the international but will be carried to next season, mind it appears Wire players are immune for punching if we go by the Briers incident!!

Westwood is a fantastic player, he plays the game hard and is also capable of the odd cheap shot. It was a cowardly punch but they happen a lot and always have done.

I wouldn't have argued with a red card and he probably deserved a couple of matches but nothing more.

Agreed. Wish he'd played for us - too old now but exactly what we've needed for some time , a big , nasty , uncompromising and aggressive forward.

Cheers Peter.

I hope he does play, especially against the Kiwis, I can't wait for a cheap shot/rough house tactic on Sonny Bill. Westwood will be picking his jaw up off the floor with his broken shoulder.
