thing is they limped off,and i for one didn't notice they were off as the game never stopped. players stretchered off always get a round of applause at leeds as they do every club.

fwiw i don't think there was anything wrong by the cas lad, just an accidental clash of heads

OMG if you think that was putting some effort in for 80 minutes



Your right they didnt lie down at least not for the last 5 minutes

apart form that they were patsies couldnt pass catch or run.



I keep saying the hit was OK apart from it would have been better before their humiliating defeat rather than completely wasted in the last 2 minutes



Are you tellimg me he was totally unaware that there had been a head collision then he is totally thick headed then.

Not blown anything out of proportion

just expressed an opinion that those particular celebrations were OTT and uncalled for.

Every big hit I've seen in the last 10 years that resulted in lost possession has always been greeted with back slapping and celebration, it's par for the course.
It's only when there is an obvious injury people stop, just like what actually happened.

When did this become a nancy game ? or at least when did the fans ?

I've just been on the Wakey Board and guese who's the biggest numpty on there?

Take a bow wit! You appear to make a career out of spouting crap and appear to be attempting to broaden your audience. You and that other braindead muppet Marshman, have been told on several occassions now that we accept that Walker was trying to put in a big hit....all perfectly Legal.... What he did do was a completely miss timed attempt...... that bordered on the reckless,...... and it was the clash of heads that caused the damage.

You still with us? THE CLASH OF HEADS!

We didn't like his celebrations afterwards, nor the chants from your gormless supporters, and to be honest I'm fed up with your whinging attempts at justifiying Friday night.

So do us all a favour, and depart soonest back to F'ktard land

Didnt JW appolgise though after he realised Burgess was injured?

If he did fair play. I dont have a problem with OTHER players running in and congratulating good play or big hits whatever thats par for the course and adds to the game

if its a good contest. but not 2 minutes from time from a heavy defeat just smacks of bitterness in my book.

I guess I have 2 main issues.

JW personal celebrations jumping about as if he had added anything to the game 2 minutes from time and over 30 points down is just pathetic

and secondly he must have known he had clashed heads and IMO he must have been aware almost instantly that Burgess was injured.

What do you expect from a Forrest Gump. "Tackle Forrest, tackle".

Heres another one

remember when Volcano caught Burrow and he help him out when he was out cold? The whole of the South Stand sung his name as respect for helping Robbie

X-Ray of Biffa's Jaw;

I saw that earlier it really made me cringe



Hes also got one on twitter with his face swollen like Kanye Wests the poor lad

Jesus christ never thought it'd be cracked like that

jaw now held together with 3 titanium plates and 12 screws

I think that there has been a massive over-reaction on here to a currently legal shoulder charge/bodycheck or whatever you want to call it.
I've no doubt that Walker did not intend to break Burgess' jaw but he surely meant to inflict pain just as our players do in reverse.
I am glad though that the boot wasn't on the other foot (as it were) & that it wasn't Walker on the receiving end of a similar challenge from Ryan Bailey.
Just imagine the uproar had that happened.
Get well soon Luke, come back stronger next year.

Whats worse is the fact that the hospital fed him a yoghurt that was a year out of date!

i think the reaction was purely based on the hit, i honestly dont think JW had realised just how badly Burgess was hurt, the celebration didnt actuall continue for very long, yeah it was nasty, and a clash of heads, but i doubt JW had realised that at first. There was no intention to injure Luke, it was just an unlucky conclusison to JW sprinitng 50m flat out to Burgess just hitting the ball. However, i do wish BUrgess a speedy recovery

Didnt even notice that, typical NHS !

My only issue with shoulder charges is when they make contact with the head. Then for me its an illegal hit, same as a swinging arm. SBW's on Bai in the World Club Challenge a few years back being a prime example. If they hit the shoulder/upper body I've no problem with them.

Wow, what a great contribution to the thread. If you try again maybe you can manage to get some more petty name calling in. There's only one person who looks like a F'ktard right now. Learn to use a message board in a civilized manner and people might even think you are a normal person. Maybe then we can get on with having debates, discussing RL and generally disagreeing with each other.


That's a nasty looking crack in that x-ray. I've no idea how long these things take to heal but i'd guess we won't see Luke play again this season?

Which would be a fine comment to make if it weren't for the fact that he mentions "private healthcare" straight after



Not that I'm following on Twitter or anything...

Well I didnt even see that



Maybe I need my eyes testing (not on the NHS obviously

)

Anyway theres nothing wrong with eating out of date yoghurt, I mean what is going to be the problem with it - it contains bacteria ?

I've just eaten a full tub of creme fraiche this weekend without knowing what it actually was, I've just looked it up - its sour cream (cream thats gone off) that is encouraged to be sour by adding bacteria to it - wish I'd read that first.

Lot's of over reaction on this thread IMO, why do some people always look to blame someone when a player gets injured?, I don't think walker or burgess did anything drastically wrong, it was a clash of heads and Walker could easily be the one with a broken jaw right now.

Injuries happen, good luck with the recovery Luke and lets move on.

Absolutely agree 100%.

Its the way some people have a problem with the lad celebrating a bid hit afterwards, as if no other play in the history of the game would.

Anyone know how long he's gonna be out for btw?

Bloody hell.
