Nicholson was given the 13 jersey this year but I think that try shows he is an outstanding talent ad an edge forward.ย Such a good running line l, speed and footwork.ย

Warrington could not complain if that push in to touch resulted in a penalty. Was the tackle complete?
I think there was just enough movement to be ok.ย My opinion of course.

Great piece of play.ย Two great athletes there.

Great catch from Newman.
And as Wilkin said, "a delicate right foot kick" from Frawley's left foot.

I like the fact we call him out very publicly, and some of us in quite an insulting tone, for calling people out publicly and in an insulting tone.
I really don't think calling out poor behaviour is as bad as the poor behaviour itself.

The YouTube highlights had the tackle then some players running over and the ref shouting at them not to get involved.
It then cuts to Dom's ripped shirt. Did it all kick off then?
The usual handbags, pushing and pulling.

What's the view on Hardaker? He seemed very pedestrian last night, a squad player as it were. I'd somehow expected more.
Clever.

He reminds me of Trump.ย
It's a fair analogy.ย
And, also like Trump, there are people who feel compelled to defend his poor behaviour because he represents them and their team.

Err yes , but letโs recap . Knock on , ran down the touchline rather than cut in and got threw into touch , ran over , decapitated someone , got assaulted by opposition , had his top ripped off , got sent off , got booedย
But he did look good in his ripped shirt!

its like a nice meal - save the best till lastย
So you can't watch the Broncos game before this game as the Broncos game is more enjoyable.ย
And yet watching this game first ruins your experience of the Broncos game.
I can see your frustration, what a terrible set of (entirely self inflicted) circumstances.ย

i said i would stop watchingย SLย on sky if they didnt stop ruining my enjoyment of pre recordedย NRLย games from the same day/weekend - its as simple as that - gambled they wouldnt tonight but they did - peeed me off - watching the darts instead now - will avoidย SKYย ย SLย games from now on for that reasonย
Why don't you just watch the games in chronological order?ย You didn't have to watch this game live.
In fact you could have watched the Broncos game now and this game later.

well thats the broncos v storm result totally ruined for my viewing tomorrow - off to flick between the end of the liverpool game and luke littler semiย instead - totally no point to this - not worth it
I'm trying to work out why you can't watch the rest of this game because you know the result of the Broncos Storm game?

That one's the worrying one for Leigh as it was straight through the middle.

I love your attention to detail in these posts and how widely these lists are assembled.
Tell me, how do you make judgements on ranking/ability - there can't be a huge amount of footage around for some of them, is is based on write ups, coaches talking them up etc or purely on some of the junior highlight reels?
-
Really looking forward to the game.
It was good to see Leigh get some success last year as it was good for the club and the sport... but I think we can all agree we have had quite enough now and it's time to get back to normal.

What do you think?
Irrespective of what team any one plays for, in my time in this game there I have been witness to hundreds of tackles in the manner of driving the shoulder into the legs above the knee, non have been sited and indeed in the game v Saints a few weeks ago apart from save for a number of Saints fans, John Wilkin and Liam Moore who sent player to the sin bin no one else including the MRP saw any problem he was not cautioned for anything, indeed the club requested the review with the MRP because of something I didn't know in that if a player gets 3 referrals they add up to a 1 match penalty notice, it was that that was exonerated not foul play.
Now back to the 'Elbow' I don't think you are doing anything but having a dig at me, no one seemingly excepting the MRP are of any other opinion that the said action did not warrant a penalty notice, I assume that the MRP would have viewed the elbow incident which required no further action and Cam Smith's apparent Grade B offence in their judgement which warranted a one match suspension? Since further reduced.
In your opinion should the elbow have been penalised with a suspension by the MRP, and should the leg tackle also have carried a suspension?
I will explain why I am replying on this thread to you.
As I have said on this thread, I am happy to comment on any panel decision and, of course, for others to do the same.
But if you search through the pages of this site, you will see time and again posts from you criticising the disciplinary panel and suggesting it is not fit for purpose and yet when it clears a Leigh player of foul play you start a new thread stating that the panel has completely vindicated the player.
Itโs like a politician branding a newspaper fake news over and over and then quoting an article when it says something nice about them, I just find the whole hypocrisy of it laughable.

Yes with a raised elbow and running into the tackle at speed, I don't think that needs explaining, you tell us you played the sport.
You see, this is what I want to know.
Dupree has been cleared of foul play by the disciplinary and yet you say thatย Dupree's action has been scorned upon and been against the rules for a very very long time.
Yet, when a Leigh player is cleared of foul play, you say he has been fully vindicated.
It couldn't just be as simple as the team they play for could it?

Sorry, I don't understand, bracing for a tackle has been scorned upon and been against the rules for a very very long time?

I was only making things up to continue the debate in my previous post - and I thought there were enough clues that it wasnโt entirely serious - but happy to make something else up
ok, understood.

I also believe the Byrne sending off was very harsh, and not just because it was a Wigan player - Percivalโs head was at the same level as the middle of his chest, and he ran straight at him.
Can you expand a bit more on why you believe that these two are mitigating factors.

yet seemingly condoning a very deliberate action of intent by the attacking player raising and leading with the elbow going into a tackle
Has Dupree not been completely vindicated by the disciplinary panel then?

As with every season, every fan will feel aggrieved at some point due to decisions made against one of their players, nothing we can do except get on with it and accept it.

11 minutes ago, Chrispmartha said:I do agree broadly with that but not sure that Smith incident is ban worthy at all. Iโd have been a bit miffed if it actually had been called up as a penalty but thatโs about as harsh as it deserves.
Leeds are appealing it so with our history at the appeals panel itโll be upgraded to two games
I think it is ok to disagree with the decisions laid down by the panel, they are subjective after all (implying or stating corruption/bent is where the issue is).
Dupree deserves a ban and Smith shouldnโt even be a charge โ thatโs my take anyway.
