Strange Wilkin's effort. Absolutely no need on his part. He'd long gave up, and perhaps the strangest part - no reaction from anyone to it ... Kelly, players or commentary. Hell they love to make a drama out of nothing.
I must confess I didn't really see an awful lot to answer to, in terms of disciplinary action with the tackle on Campese.
It was testament to the awful officiating on Fri, that somehow Goulding didn't get penalised. He practically gave himself up and confessed to it at the time. Even Green's shoulder to Burns wasn't picked up until the game stopped and replays were seen.

Didn't spot the Goulding one. Suprised Green didn't get more. Still, both accept the EGP, rest Green on Friday and play on Monday. Helps sort out the pack decisions a bit over this busy period. Need to win both of them. Hull away is doable but not certain by any means and need to maintain the home record now.

Let's be honest. Wilkin is that kind of player.

Huge loss, been stand out forward this season. Back for the Huddersfield game though in what is another winnable game.

Disgusting tackle from Green the EGP does not reflect the damage he could have caused to Travis?

2 match ban minimum and should have been sent off

Tough. It's been to the disciplinary panel. Move on.
I'm sure Campese has moved on from the disgusting challenge he was on the receiving end of.

Judging by the damage your players have inflicted on Burns it's obvious they targeted his head. Disgusting tactics.

If you think that ANY player goes onto the field with the intention of deliberately injuring another then Travis is not the only one to have had a bang on the head.

He did get a 2 match ban, However his previous good discipline meant he had an EGP available reducing it to 1 match. He's already said in interviews since that himself and Travis wasn't the best of friends last year and it's well documented that Burns was a bit of a bully at Rovers, This may not show through at Saints with stronger characters.

Early days Easty. I predict a less than harmonious changing room at Saint Helens before too long.
