- Not as quick as he was when he first came to Leeds
- Poor discipline
- Adds to Catalans already poor disciplinary record

Catalan should change their Dragons name to "Dirties!"
I see what you did there......

Brian Mac hauled Webb off against Wakey when he gifted us a try through his ill-discipline last year, and I think never played again. He should have been put on a plane then. A real bad example of an Aussie taking the place of a local lad. He has nowt to offer Catalans that a young French lad couldn't offer.
True, he's a total liability. I thought they should've stuck with Stacul.

I'm no Webb fan by the way, but Westwood should have had a red.

Maybe Wire should get shut of Westwood, following Webb up the pitch for a feud was a stupid as anything I've seen.

Silly moment from one of Wakey's finest, but he's so much more disciplined than he used to be. He's allowed to chance going to the bin with 9 mins to go when the game is in the bag.

I agree, but Westwood does offer good performances.
Leeds last year always looked better without Webb than with him for me.

As I said, I am no Webb fan. I certainly am not defending Webb. however Westwood was an idiot and was lucky that the ref...I agree, but Westwood does offer good performances.

BW would have been a good signing in the first 2 seasons but now no.
At some stage the dragons are going to have to blood some of those youngsters that we keep hearing about,far too many local players have also been lost and some not just for rugby reasons in the early years of the club it was a great shame that Maxime Greseque was never signed because of the deep hatred between Bernard and his father,also why was Pascal Fages allowed to go to Salford again i would say it was the Pia connection (Historic hatred runs deep in these parts)
As a friend of mine who was once an american football coach said if my best player was caught sleeping with my wife i would still pick him and sort the personal issues out in a dark alley later:)

Having seen Hock grab a ref and try and gouge a player over the past few years Im surprised you thought Westwood squaring up to a player who had had a running battle with so stupid.Maybe Wire should get shut of Westwood, following Webb up the pitch for a feud was a stupid as anything I've seen.

That said, you do have a point - I wouldnt have been surprised if Westwood did get a red, and I certainly thought they should have got the penalty.
Somebody snapping and starting a fight aftrr 70mins of provocation is hardly a hanging offence though.

Well said Dave. If Westwood had been sent off, conceded the penalty and Webb had stayed on, I still would have defended Westwood. Webb had it coming to him. It's just a shame Ben didn't get a chance to come back on and do the same to Elima.
Rumour going around Headingley that Wire will have to play the second half with 12 men.
It seems that they forgot to bring the half time oranges, and Solomona ate Chris Bridge instead.
Don't know why he was hungry, as he looked as though he had eaten the whole youth team before the game started.

Hock is an altogether different level of stupid, but I'm still surprised that people think Benny's some sort of angel. They really aren't that far apart on a regular day. (Not defending the eye gouging in particular mind. That was inexcusable)
