31 May: CCQF: Huddersfield Giants v Catalans Dragons KO 7.35pm (TV)

[DavidM]

You’ll see 100 tackles like that in a fast moving sport , but the vast majority they get up . Also why is a VR falling for that ?

Don't leave Phil Clarke out of that statement, they really make me feel like puking listening to all that drivel, volume control now operative to mute mode.

[my missus]

pretty obvious catalan have been advised to claim a penalty fo every tiny mishap in the tackle, nothing wrong with the tackles,

[Hvy wg]

Brough is a piece of ######

[DavidM]

Oh ffs this system has to go . Even after the replay Hewer said tackle 4 , then five minutes later there’s a penalty . If three officials see nowt get on with it

Brough locked a choke though. 

[Man of Kent]

Brough binned for dangerous contact on the neck and rightly so

[Hvy wg]

This is so Catalans...

Pressurising someones neck isn't tackling.

When the player cannot defend himself,it becomes sinister.

i wasn't talking about that tackle it was a wrong one, but the others are just players playing the ref.

Which three officials are there to see . It’s a fast moving sport it’s not meant to be forensically analysed in slow motion , then you can find anything ... but only if you stay down . Not all of these are dangerous are they , frame by frame you can find something incidental or slight like the gigot tackle . The VR is badly influencing the game and behaviour of players

Bird should just start every game with a bandaged head, save time later in the game.

Thoroughly deserved trip to the bin.

[Man of Kent]

Catalans trained in the bar again this week, it seems.

Kenny Edwards is built like a rhino... Thinks like one too 

[Pigeon Lofter]

Game improved in the last 5 minutes. Sets getting completed and both sides attacking and defending well.
