So sissy timed his tackle to perfection.....DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH.

The only thing sissy timed to perfection was to go IN with his elbow with the sole intention to damage Lynne who was completely un protected.

He's a COWARD.

Like to see sissy pat Orgre on the head.....what a w4nker.

The penalty count was 11-4 as it was. Given the ref's propensity to penalise us, more aggression would likely just have meant more penalties and probably a heavier defeat.

Not many of them were for foul play and if the ref is determined to penalise us he will find any method to do so.

But a bit of aggression within the laws of the game would have made me feel a bit happier.

He had a third choice.. He should have jumped to catch it thus making Whelham give away a penalty and a probable sinbin if he proceeded with the tackle.

I'm a Hull fan and didn't think it was that bad, didnt see much of the elbow and it was timed perectly. If we aren't hitting the opposition (fairly) without trying to cause damage then we are doing something wrong. I mentioned this in another thread, saying our forwards were a bit "namby pamby". Someone posted a pic of O'Meley showing how big and nasty he looked. Paea stomped all over our forwards in the friendly.

Apparently in a report Aspinwall was smashing people in training and no one wanted to train with him. He lasted 2mins on Sunday before getting knocked the f*** out by Paea who hardly noticed Aspinwall trying to tackle him. Our training must be pretty "namby pamby".

I personally thought it was a good take by Reece he is still learning the full back role and has a good teacher in Mc Kinnon give the kid a chance. As far as the tackle goes if one of our players had put it on a Rovers player there would be a 300 page thread with what a great tackle and put the Dobbins in there place that. If you dont like the physical side of the game go watch roll around football. End of Rant !!!!!

Voice ,Welham didnt need to pat Ogre on the head , Mickey Paea did plenty of that.
As for the welham hit , Perfectly fair for mine.

I'm amazed that some are making a fuss about this perfectly timed legal tackle by our centre when some on here still have a sockfest over your centre sneaking up around the back of our player and pulling him over by his collar???

she fell over ect ect,

maybe you should change to soccer Mrs B cause you seem to get off more on the theatrics rather than the big hits???

Didnt see anything wrong with the tackle on Reece he was more the victim of a swirling ball which had to be taken in an unorthodox manner. Sadly for him this resulted in the shot by Welham and a few minutes in cloud cuckoo land.

She did fall over, though. No amount of whimpering about its relevance will ever change that. I found that incident amusing and entertaining, even if a bit silly. In contrast, I didn't do a little wee of excitement waiting to watch a re-run of a young player receiving a head injury. That's the difference between us I guess.

She did fall over as Newton was one big windy fadge.

Quality fc post

4 days out after Welhams illegal off the ball head high crowbar to the nostril, must of been a bad one

Edited for accuracy.

All this because the Ginger one made a tackle. It's going to be a long season.
