25 Feb: SL: Hull FC v Castleford Tigers KO 8pm (TV)

[Gates1]

Denny Solomona looks set for a good season, on this evidence.

Best winger in SL in based on form over last season and this for me.

[Red robin]

Take Houghton out of this FC side and their screwed.

[Gates1]

Good try but poor defence. Holmes needed to do alot better.

[LeeF]

What's more damaging, a slap to the cheek or or hand off straight to the front of the face.

You do know a hand off is only allowed when the ball is in play & can only be used to fend off a defender from tackling him.

One is allowed the other isn't. You can't slap someone

It was a penalty nothing more required. Handled very well by the ref

[chuffer]

Bosh

[chuffer]

CAS have played that last set ferociously quick

[chuffer]

Oh dear....fwd pass 5m in front of your line...

[chuffer]

More acrobatics from solomona!

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

In again! Fantastic finish. But Cas stitched up.

[chuffer]

Webster just went forward....pryce ran into him

[Gates1]

One is allowed the other isn't.

Half right. A slap isn't allowed, nor is attacking a defenders face with the palm when the ball isn't even in play.

You are contradicting yourself stating a hand off is allowed then stating a penalty was the right decision.

A hand off/ or a palm to the face can seriously damage someone done hard enough.

No contradiction

People wanted 10 mins for the push / hand off which it wasn't

Are you saying that all hand offs should be banned?

[Gates1]

Glad to see Michaels look a fool for his sarcastic slap to Solomona after he thought he'd scored. Make sure you've scored before you take the Mick!

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Vid ref levels decisions up there.

[Gates1]

No contradiction

No but they should only be used when the ball is in play.

It wasn't a slap. It was a push/ hand off so penalty only no sin bin

Really enjoying this on 5Live Sports Extra.  Dave Woods's enthusiasm is a pleasure to listen to, the noise of the crowd is coming across well, and although I'm not sure why, I really like Craig Murdock as a summariser.

Like trying to educate pork.

When did I say it was a slap? It was worse than a slap in reality.

That's why a stiff arm is illegal. Any tackle can seriously injure a player, but a hand-off (legal) with a bent arm should do nothing more than cause a bloody nose.

[chuffer]

It wasn't a slap. It was a push/ hand off so penalty only no sin bin

Zzzzzzz, you're missing the point...ball wasn't even in play therefore it wasn't a hand off or fend

[Griff9of13]

Whatever you want to call it I don't think I'd have liked to be on the end of it!

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Last time Leon Pryce showed this much aggression he was kicking a door down with Stuart Reardon.

Did he go diving with Stuart too/

[Futtocks]

All level!

 

But feel free to carry on picking away at a minor incident from earlier.
