I'd prefer a sonny Nickle. He was big, fast, agressive, never gave up and hard as nails.

Sadly he was also a penalty machine, now Webcke or Tallis in the redvee .. yes please

In his second stint with us he was very well behaved; until the robbie mears incident, which was awful.

I think he did mature a bit yes. Not many good enforcers around these days sadly, people some times think aggression means you have to be dirty too, McIlorum is just a second rate thug who'll spend his career in Roby's shadow, he's not even the best 9 at the pie dome, that honour goes to a guy who is aggressive but not imo dirty , Tommy L

McIlorum was deservedly sent off and will now get a ban. It was stupid and foolish and cost us any chance of the win. Hopefully he will now learn his lesson...

I've only just seen the challenge. Any defence of it is completely laughable, any tackles like that should be red carded without question.

you dont get much worse than a late high swinging arm when the player your 'attacking' has their back turned. Cowards tackle.

He's making a habit of blindsiding people. He punched Elima from the side too, a similar angle to the much berated Magennis punch on Tuson.

Re: Micky Mac = Thug : Mon Sep 10, 2012 5:34 pm  

Late, high, pre-meditated, dangerous, cowardly or all of the above as i prefer.
Got lucky by not breaking Boof's jaw.

Has been given a Grade C which basically means "reckless" and 1-3 games.
Nice to see the RFL saw the bright side of it and not the cocked arm and major impact with the forearm and Boof's face. There was impact on the shoulder first that i didnt see very well????!

Perry was also a huge moron dropping on Lima, riled them up nice and good however. Silly and surprised he didnt get a letter telling him off.

Dudson also got away with a cheap one on LMS when he dumped him head first after LMS had offloaded. Oh and factor in St Sam of Tomkins left swing at Jones and the officials missed a few.

Reckless? It could only been more premeditated had he been punching him repeatedly in the face!

If he got 3 matches then if Wigan win their first game he is out for the GF, if they lose he could be back for the GF, if they get that far?
