I understand things are all opinions, I have mine, I have good eye sight and I haven’t been in the shower for two years having a bad dream.
TJ was 10/15 yards from the touch line, his team mates were on the open side so they wouldn’t see it PT.
If you don’t think some players have ever tried to injure or take someone out of the game then either you haven’t read many RL books or watched it differently. I think the 60s expression for removing someone was “crash tackle” and that’s 50 plus years ago.

Phwoar, I'm glad I don't stand next to you at Belle Vue then
(Sorry mate, couldn't resist that one )

Hopefully the disciplinary committee will have a look at that one (albeit it won't help us in the slightest )

The good thing about it, if that's possible is the usual suspects aren't blaming Mr Chester.

Re: Injury Updates : Sun Jun 27, 2021 4:20 pm  

Is that the only positive you can come up with for Chester being the coach. The last player to admit trying to injure a player was a tackle in an international against Chase when he played for England.

At it again, I’ll give it to you you’ve got even more brass neck than me.

No Mopsey, I know what I saw. A hand grabbed his ankle and jerked it sideways very quickly. It looked like a blatant attempt to remove the man who had provided two tries, allegedly. You cannot actually be shocked as if it is something new to happen to him get injured playing Pie Eaters.

Yes and the tackle that Liam Marshall did on Jay pitts in the first couple of minutes when he broke through Marshall yanked pitts leg up into an awkward position which caused and injury to pitts fair enough he stayed on the pitch but again could have been so much worse

Good news especially considering the news about Manfredi. Don't think the pair of them have a decent knee between them. Hope he has better luck and goes on to fulfil his potential.

Tough on Manfredi who I've always rated right up there with TJ.

They are almost identical players, even down to injuries.
