It wasnt a harmonious camp anyway no matter was TS was saying on Sky commentary.

Senior wont be a part of it, thankfully for Wilkin

Doesn't help when the England skipper bangs on about hating Saints players (see someone's sig).

Having said that, Wilkin would be nowhere near my England team, even as a Saints fan.

why, senior won't be there? (granted he's still the best english centre in the league, but he's retired from internationals)

because the incident aggravated the animosity of both teams to each other.

So, because he was ok, it makes the tackle ok?

RL props don't shout in pain unless they're in bloody pain, and try getting someone to bend your upper arm the wrong way. Trust me, you'll soon tell them to stop.

See my post on your own forum (it's probably been moderated by now)

You don't suffer a chicken wing tackle like that and retain the ability to throw a long pass within a few minutes. I know, I've been there - playing both prop and hooker

which needs to be an on field thing only, if some players can't let go once the game is over, then they shouldn't be in the england camp.

Yes you do.

This is what I thought in real time. In slow motion, it looked worse. 1 match at most.

I wanted Eastmond to get a crack!

You're cool!

Another piece of unbridled genius.

Must admit, it's the first time I've seen a prop forward flounce of the pitch at full time.

Mark my words, that lad has a future in pantomime!

Tonights Senior-Wilkin spat was I suspect an ongoing thing from the England World Cup camp, as another poster said it was far from a harmonious camp despite what Tony Smith might say.
Wilkin IMO should be nowhere near an England team any way.
I'm damned sure Keith would not react like that just because some pretty-boy,would-be journalist grabbed his shirt !

While ive had a bit of a laugh on the saints site over James Graham, in all seriousness I was very uncomfortable with that "Tackle" Webb was completely off the ground so the whole weight of his body would have been on Eastmonds neck..... and its been totally overshadowed by the pantomime stuff....

I'd hope Webb gets a ban for that because he knew what he was doing.

it wasnt put on report was it?

i thought it was just the chicken wing tackle that was put on report? even Senior's wasnt was it?

or did i miss it....

It doesn't matter a jot whether an incident is put on report or not really. All three will be looked at by the video review panel on Monday morning regardless and probably all referred.

oh fair nuff



makes a bit of a mockery of the whole 'on report' thing then doesnt it really.......seems like a bit of a cop out for refs; "i dont want to make a decision cos i dont know, report".

Incidents in every match can be put on report. So if there's a possibility of serious foulplay during any of the games the referee can put the incidents on report so the disciplinary can look further at it.

The live games probably need the On Report system the least, because the vast majority of the incidents will be picked up by the cameras anyway.

I met James last week on my way to Amsterdam and he was a nice bloke. He was out of order tonight though, alright he has never got on with Bailey since they were in the acadamies together, but still, no excuse to have a shake of hands and congratulate us on our win. He should've been adult about it and accepted defeat how ever it came about!

You have to earn respect, Leeds were shameful tonight.

The whole 'on report' system has been somewhat overtaken by the coverage of the modern game.

Placing an incident on report though will ensure it is looked at so still just about has a part to play in the game.

The video review panel appear to sweep up most of the rest.

As for Senior at the end how badly did Ganson want Bentham to ask for his opinion?

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!

and you get nowhere being a soft touch
