No, Morley was stood up when Cassidy hit him.

I will leave it at that then and admit that Flower was provoked in the extreme

Like Ken Gee was when he hit Arthur Clunes following his cowardly attack on little scrum half Tommy Bradshaw!

Yep this is probably the worst for me. I heard an ex-Wigan player's take on it not long ago, who was on the pitch at the time, and it made it evenworse for me.

I also think Mason on Long nearly as bad - luckily for Long the contact was on his forehead rather than eye/cheekbone otherwise it probably would've done serious damage.

Thompson has left Saints with immediate effect. Saints pretty scathing in their press release saying they had to get rid as he was the only player who refused a pay cut during this pandemic. Ironic that considering the Saints fans always said their chance of keeping him was that he came from a wealthy family. Guess that’s how you become rich!

Normally a bit disappointed when quality players leave for the NRL but as it's Saints, nah.
Leaving on bad terms makes it even better.
Wonder how long it takes RedVee to decide he was completely overrated anyway

Big loss for them, and in the current climate can’t see them pulling off an overseas signing for this season to replace him unless Wolfe has his eye on one of the Tongan lads on the fringe of an NRL squad.

Their has clearly been a fall out somewhere between player and club which I think is a shame given he has been associated with the club for 13 years.

Interesting times at Saints not sure Wolfe is winning the fans over or players in some cases with his methods.
