And I don't care what Hoffman says. Hoffman would say that if he had arrived at Christmas. It's called his defence.

Anyway, the RFL will decide. I don't have a great deal of confidence in their judgement, bearing in mind they let a shoulder charge to the face go unpunished in Wire's match against Hudds. But we'll see.

Like Grahams on Lima?

I see the Wigan winder uppers are here.

I think if it's fair then it's fair, lets just do a huddersfield coach statement and say next time, we'll get one of our lads to take Tomkins out the game.

It's only a good tackle, forget the fact the ball had already gone. It's a fair tackle after all.

Graham owned Lima. Lima is nothing if he isn't playing dirty.

Yes they all be joining maguire and Richards there as well.


Maguire turns a average run of the mill team in to champs then leaves that same average run of the mill players.

I wonder who'll be missed more indeed?

My point was that Grahams tackle on Lima was similar to the Warrington one.

Have you watched the game again yet?
Hoffmans tackle on Wheeler was no later than the one on Pat Richards by Gardner.

Nothing like it. Went nowhere near Lima's face.

Graham owned Lima.

I think any honest rugby league player will say that's what happens in rugby. He didn't mean to do it, he didn't attack his shoulder and IMO from how I saw it, he was committed.

Now if he'd gone out to injure him or it was clear cut he was late then fair enough but it's a 50/50 call in that type of tackle.

Im sure some saddo will have timed how long the ball had gone before he hit him.

Saintsfan is now sat at home with sky+ on and stop watch.

The hole your digging for yourself is now way above your head
