Looks that way. Strange thing is, no one but a hardy few on here seemed to think it was a wrong decision.

See below.

Only because it was an obvious forward  from Bell to Sironen.

Absolutely correct.

Amazing tackle attempt by Welsby there

He is not very good when a man is running at him

[Mark S]

If I was the Warrington coach I would give Wrench a proper bollocking for that.

The commentator just reminded me my washing is outside and it's raining.

He nearly stopped him but he was on a hiding to nowt with two in support.

Bit naughty from Walmsley there, sin bin for me.

you hang your washing out in st helens? how long is the line?

[Harry Stottle]

Shoulder to the head by Walmersley 

[Nothus]

Ten minutes for that?!

[Old Frightful]

Exactly correct, shoulder to face, what's to argue with there?

[PEANUT HEAD]

Blatant shoulder to the head. Blame it on Asiata. 

[Just Browny]

Whats the argument here? Direct shoulder to the face.

Shoulder to the head, can't see how that can be argued?

Who’s watching on sky vs C4, I didn’t even consider turning in sky

But Channel 4 is supposed to be better than Sky.

[graveyard johnny]

yet another ludicrous stupid call

[dkw]

That's a weird one, he's not put the shoulder in or swung an arm, he's sort of ducked into Walmsleys chest so it's a bit harsh, but I suppose it can be classed as reckless.

[EagleEyePie]

I think that's good officiating from Thaler. It was direct shoulder contact to the head but there's a lot of mitigation so a sin bin is the sensible call.

[sam4731]

I can't remember a time when a defender went down, it's shown on the screen and the attacker didn't get 10.

Well you can have a nice chat with Walmsley whilst you're in there

[Leyther_Matt]

I think the second replay showed a good angle that Walmsley dipped his shoulder in to it a little bit, but in reality it’s no good watching these things in slow motion if we want to get a real picture of it. 

[Nothus]

The contact looked completely accidental to me but I guess that doesn't change the ruling. On first viewing, and at full speed, there looks to be nothing in it.

[Padge]

Walmsley didn't just stand his ground and the player hit him, he moved his shoulder into him.

That's tremendous attention to detail, him knowing you had washing outside.
