Like it or not, the laws changed so you can't just throw your shoulder at the knees of the ball carrier without actually trying to tackle and hold them.

I didn't watch the half time chat.

I take it from the Leigh fan's reaction that Wilkin said the yellow for Asiata was the correct call?

He ranted basically about Asiata in general while Brian went through the actual metrics of what is a penalty in terms of the rule change and said it didnt meet them , and Wilkin ignored him and kept ranting

Lomax strips the ball.

Rugby Union the only game in the world were the spectators handle the ball more than the players.

Nothing wrong with that.

A bit of movement but you can't call that.

Some weird decisions in this game, and lack of in some cases. Seen a fair bit of head of head contact gone completely missed too so will be interesting to see disciplinary, Moylan has 2 separate facial cuts from head contacts and Obrien does too and is off for a HIA from being cleaned out at the back when the penalty was awarded to Saints

Considering Huddersfield weren't even cited for the late hit on Moylan which had him off for a HIA in round 1 I don't hold much hope

As a neutral I think it has been a good tough game.

Not sure I would have wanted more penalties for high shots.

If those are going to be the rules, then they should at least stick to them

It's interesting to see saints amend their tackle technique and not holding the ball carrying arm like last season. They are now holding the ball carrying arm just below the armpit to buy that extra half second. It's not as long as you would have seen last season , but it's definitely a technique they are using on a regular basis.
