In the last instance of Myler tripping someone: DETAILS OF CHARGE / REASON FOR NF : Player extends foot and arm at the same time. Simultaneous contact on opponent: DECISION:No charge. INCIDENT:Trip in the 17th minute (Quinlan).
Therefore Sam Tomkins shouldn't have a problem.

Simultaneous contact ? , funny I always thought you had to have hold of the player before using your foot , simultaneous isn't before

I also put a bet on for Saints to win this year so it won't be the 1st time or last....but you might want to change your quote it was a charge for the knee... we are not all perfect.
WIGAN V WARRINGTON - SUPER LEAGUE
DETAILS OF CHARGE / REASON FOR NF :
Player lunges towards opponent with arms and one leg outstretched. Player makes initial contact with both hands. Player has leg outstretched in front of opponent. Contact made between leg of player and leg of opponent however player has not used tripping motion and appears to be using throwing motion to complete tackle.

DECISION:
No charge

INCIDENT:
Tripping in the 17th minute (Godwin)

It's the blinkers, not the horse.
I know it's difficult to see through your cherry and white tinted glasses

I was simply using the previous disciplinary cases for examples and predicated the tackle on Clark incorrectly as I did with St Helens when they were mullering teams on a weekly basis, I thought they "have" to win it but they didn't. I got that one wrong and I'm sure many others did. However the "trip" seems to be an allowable tackle these days so perhaps they need to sort that rule out properly for next year.
In reference to the other thread in which I was defending "Sam Tomkins" for the knees after the 1st try for which I seem to have got correct because the panel were giving out bans for the weekend but not one for Williams (we agreed it definitely wasn't Tomkins) for which I wasn't blinkered. But I like the horse comment even though it was completely misplaced and inaccurate, trot on.

No need to ' sort out ' anything , the rules are you can use your legs to bring a player down AFTER gaining hold with your hands , it was a trip
