On the Guy who got sent of most of the pundits though it was a bad call .Think two blows to the face by the shoulder by two players more or less at the same time with out any attempt to tackle the player look a red to me . While pundits make calls like that we will never get did of the high tackle

I guess you must have watched a different coverage to me because the pundit I was listening to clearly agreed Watts was a sending off once it was shown on the TV. It’s no surprise that the two sending offs today involved players with a chequered disciplinary record who will need to learn that all their actions are now covered and they will be found out.
The exception being the Hull player whose actions were so obvious no coverage was required.

The video ref recommended a red card for the Smith tip tackle but the ref bottled it and produced a yellow.

I'm really not sure what mutigation there is for that. Looking at it again, I think that's a red.

Soon as I saw the replay I thought Watts would be in trouble. Shoulder to the head, no arms wrapped around the player. Westerman compounded the matter as Dupree ended up between the too, but it was Watt's actions which caused the head to jar. Red card these days. The Wigan shoulder could've gone either way, perhaps the arms were wrapped at least, the tip tackle, looked bad, poor technique, but I've seen penalties and yellow cards for them, rarely a red. Time will tell whether a yellow for that remains consistent.

What's your view on Watts? Red or not?

Ash Golding and Kevin Brown on the beeb stuck to their shared opinion that Watts red card was unwarranted, regardless of how many replays were put in front of them. Red all day imho.
