surely he must be the first player to be banned this season, a disgusting cheapshot on hereamaia that may have resulted in a serious injury


once again the ref copped out with the on report!

Really poor effort on a fellow professional. Pathetic in fact.

seems to be part of the catalan style, heramaia was the victim of a dirty cheapshot in last seasons play off game too

How is that not a red card? A proper MMA style heel hook.

just watched it.really poor.he's a cheap shot merchant and that just confirmed sort of guy he is.should be looking at 6 games for me.could of easily ended azza's season,or worst

And thanks to the cop out offered by the on report system it will be Cats next opponents, not Hull who will benefit from any ban he gets.

This, especially the end part.

Think the reaction of his fellow professionals on Twitter said it all.

He should have walked but now Catalans next opponents will benifit from Elima's exclusion .

Just pure nasty. If he does not get a ban for that I will be amazed. But then again this is the RFL we are talking about.

Yes because the referee has the benefit of the multiple camera angles that allowed you to see the incident doesn't he?

The video ref shouldve advised him

If he'd have looked at the screen he would have seen the replay, so yes he did have the benefit of multiple camera angles.

Hes a dirty 2@ always has been.

Although I would agree with you Dave, if the camera's are there, with two referees in the video ref box looking at it from multiple angles, would you say its possible a decision could be made at time?

Personally, having now seen the tv coverage of it, I think Elima may well get just a warning for this. Not sure how deliberate it is.

the fact he was ten feet away should of been the only thing he needed as regards to that incident. I saw it from the Eaststand.

Glad we didn't sign that drty tw@.
