I guess that when the Disciplinary Committee have a look at it Wilf, it will be the end of the playoffs for the Newcastle lad.

I'm not keen on ref-bashing but he gave himself plenty of time to arrive at the correct decision and still didn't!

Justice would see a ban for the player and some education for the official.

If the guilty player has been dealt with on field , a sin binning , isn't that the end of the matter.

Great team performance , enjoyed my afternoon in the north east.

No. The disciplinary committee can review and refer any incident, even those where the official took some action. What tends to happen however, in the vast majority of cases, is that those dealt with on the pitch rarely have any further action taken.

Which would be very unfortunate. Can anyone here. Hand on heart. Say that wasn't one of the worst high tackles they've seen? Sin bin and no further action

Tom looked ok at the end of the game.

he will have to pass a head test no doubt.

Hedges had to come off with a leg injury.

COYD

If they do review it I hope that for the sake of the game (and players health) it warrants sterner action. Not one for mixing the Rugby codes up but you have to say in Union that type of head shot would be severely dealt with.

Sorry Rob ... been busy.
Do I have to explain the joke?

No it isn't!

Thanks, Wanderer has explained.

Brandon Douglas may have a broken hand, according to a post on the Cleggbook.

That would explain him going down holding his wrist area at that one play the ball where number 14 acted a pr*ck. I just assumed he was carrying a knock with all the strapping and he caught it in tackle. Speaking of anyone entirely sure what the ruling was for that in the end? Looked like our guy went down with a knock, ref stopped play, number 14 decided to crowd him and laugh at him in a super classy display of sportsmanship (sarcasm) , Levy moved him out of the way and then Newcastle piled in. Didn't see any punches and didn't make out the ref's signal so just not sure what he pinged them for in all that tbh

I'll be on my toes next time Brian

once again,,, credit where credit due,, well done the players and coach (hope I dont have to get my humble pie out of freezer for consumption) can we do it three weekends on the trot. were doing it the hard way but at least we are still in with a chance,,If/when we beat oldham am I right in thinking we play them away again.

If they win their next game yes

Only way we can be at home now is if Workington beat Newcastle and Oldham
