Sam looks for an edge and the things he does aint illegal people need to get off his back

I have no issue with 90% of Tomkins play. He is a very talented player but clamping defenders arms (which isnt Legal as far I know) etc is not looking for an edge it's looking to cheat 2 points or field position. That clearly annoys people.

I'll stand by what I said though he should not be getting stick from England fans

The stadium is way below standard and if the Leeds fans cant get beyond their parochial attitude then it should be played in
Huddersfield or Wigan.

Or, dare I say, next season in St.Helens.

As for booing the ratboy, absolutely ridiculous.

Booing Tomkins was uncalled for.

All it will cause is Wigan fans to boo Leeds players when they play at Wigan.

Personally think its high time these type fixtures were moved away from Headingley.

If the RFL wasn't based in Leeds, there would have been no chance of it being at Headingly.

The game should have been played at the JJB, the best stadium of all the clubs with the best fan base to match.

You mean he cheats? So holding a players arm in an attempt to get a penalty isn't illegal?

Ref's have seen him do it and not punished him so NO IT'S NOT ILLEGAL

90% what else does he do cause holding a players arm isn't 10%

Like i said in my last post ref's have caught onto it and he's not been punished so i would say it's legal

Two great try saving tackles tonight. Best player in English Superleague by a long long way.

He's a sly little runt of a player who's always pushing the line into cheating.

And I want him to do exactly the same thing for England against the Aussies when I will cheer it wholeheartedly.

I don't see the point of attending an International match to boo players you are supposed to be supporting.
