Micky Mac had been dishing it out before the sending off,strange how things turn out sometimes

It's ok, he is a mod

We are just blowing off a bit of steam, don't need to be insulted.

Don't be daft.

In my opinion it was a really bad decision, but that's only my opinion. In the refs opinion it was a red. They can only call it how they see it, for better or worse, and until you have robots controlling the game, you are going to get calls you don't like. I'm not happy with the call, but that's sport. Take it on the chin and grow up.

Join the minority.

At least you know your place.

yes it was the refs opinion, but it wasn't borderline, I honestly think if it had been a player from wigan leeds he would have got a yellow at worst and would properly not even have been awarded a penalty, it can ruin a game and some of the decisions are baffling,

The fact he was out cold brought out red. Not knocked out yellow or report

It's not a joke, that's the problem - its big money. Tonight was pre-meditated by the RFL without a doubt in my opinion. You could see it in the behaviour of Hicks in both halves - the second-half relaxation followed by a final panic was an analyst's dream - Wigan needed to win that game.

Thomas Leuluai was embarrassed.

Yes of course, but you can call me "Sir"

I seriously doubt that statement as Hicks for me wasn't even looking and was given instruction through his ear piece. Bentham apparently called it for dangerous contact & careless by Watts!! Christ even Phil 'Mr Wigan' Clarke said it wasn't a red card.
Mcilorum just launched himself got it all wrong and came off second best and he himself has to take a responsibility for his technique. He was at it from the start and tried to put Watts' head in the turf in an earlier tackle. He's a cheap shot merchant and paid the cost tonight for trying to through a big hit and failing big style. It was his wreckless nature/attempt not Watts.

If that was genuinely a red card offence then the game is dead as tackling/running into defending players may as well be outlawed.

Hicks was appalling tonight and had lost all control after 5 mins if he had it in the first place. Wigan came with a game plan to mix it and Hicks allowed it boil over showing he was totally inept and out of his depth in that situation.

Absolutely spot on, what gets me is the many super slow zoom in replays that sky showed which influenced the decision not once did they show it at full speed which shows the split second impact from Watts getting the ball to Mcllorum flying at him at full pelt which he got spectacularly wrong.
