Two shots in tonight's game that were worse than TP's but nobody got sent off.

I don't think they were worse, but gave very good arguments for the shoulder charge to be outlawed.

As I said about the TP incident, lets see how the disciplinary sort it out.

You don't think Webb's was worse? Charging with a raised forearm?

Also, why do illegal shoulder charges create 'very good arguments' for legal shoulder charges to be outlawed? Attacking the head is dangerous no matter what part of the body hits it.

Let's not listen to moronic statements from the likes of Stevo.

Webb jumped into that one as well to make sure he got higher. A bit different to TP who wasn't even standing fully upright.

I AGREE, AGAIN, TP was hard done by, Webb’s shot tonight was at least as bad, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets off with nowt! I’m really not trying to be nasty, but how long is this thread going to go on for? I’m sure Tony P’s over it now and looking forward to Monday, so stop kicking it, its gone, time out. You were right they were wrong, END OF!

To be honest I think it's only carrying on because there's been a rash of similar challenges which have been met with completely inconsistent treatment by the officials. It's another one of those things that gets completely different treatment for TV and non-TV games.

Both Webb and Wilkes charged with grade B offences. As I said let the disciplinary sort it out.
