He was probably tracking Talanoa or something.

Not sure if I'm in the minority, but I much prefer watching defence to attack.
I'd rather see a 6-6 game full of great defending and big tackles than a 40-38 game full of full length trys and the like.
While I agree that our players need to be safe (feels weird saying that after the latest news on McKinnon over in Aus) I can't help but think the game is turning soft. By all means punish a shoulder charge to the head, but everybody loves seeing a big hit, prop on prop. It motivates the team and fans.

Have you not seen the NRL for a bit? The same disciplinary "problems" are happening here.

Some bright spark will have suggested that a shoulder charge to the body can cause whiplash, so let's ban it altogether.

I wonder how many of our injuries over the last few years have been caused by "illegal" tackles?

It's getting to a point where general distain for how the RFL do things is outweighing the love for my club/the sport that drives me to still pay attention. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

We are in serious shiit for Friday now

you're telling me, we need big forwards to match up to salford - can't even select a purposeful 17 if carvs isn't fit. mind you if sunday is anything to go on we'll only use 16

I cant wait for Friday, both teams are unpredictable at the moment so should be one hell of a game. I think there will be a few of us there (salford) but im not to sure about the cup. I think for us Hock and Griffin are a big miss. I do also think the RFL make up a number of bans as they go along. I cant see how westwood got a one match ban for punching a player in the face in a grand final yet a castleford player Tansey gets 3 match ban for pushing a ref. I know you shouldnt touch an offical but never a 3 game ban..See you lot on friday

I bloody love my rugby league, or at least I did. In my opinion, the best sport in the world has been completely effed up by those morons in the RFL. Not only are they corrupt, but absolutely clueless with how to run the game. Their referees are incompetent that (as I heard screamed by a fan behind me on Sunday) "have left their spines in Red Hall". Would love for there to be some form of revolution and turn back the damage the current crop of n*bheads have done. I and countless others want Rugby to be back how it should be. Bring back the biff!

Not seen Ellis's 'charge' and if it was to the head then fair enough but after watching the wire game on Thursday and seeing Westwoods late shoulder charge on the kicker towards the end of the game gone totally unmentioned (even the sky numpty's commented on it) then you do have to wonder about the consistency of the reviews.
We've got Poore up again and he was part of a tackle that went over the vertical but by the sounds of it so where 3 widnes players, now Poore will get 3 matches they get a caution, How does that work??

Constant ill discipline.

Do people actually remember these incidents that get charged or do you all just moan, saying "O it's Hull, would get away if it was Leeds", the panel have reviewed footage and have a better view of the tackle than anybody else, happened right infront of me, after Brown passed the ball Ellis should charged him from behind when he didn't have the ball, deserves the ban he gets. Take off the tinted specs

He makes a great point.

Nobody is moaning about Ellis potentially getting a ban, it is the inconstancy, last with Paea when compared to Flower and this week Ellis compared to Westwood.

At least with tinted specs it's possible to see through the other side. From your post I can only assume you're blindfolded if you can't see what is actually being debated in regards to the judiciary.
