Crossley has a sternum injury according to the T&A. JK hasn't exactly ruled him out though that just might be mind games..

Flanagan was sin binned because it was a professional foul. The only thing stopping it from being a red is that they changed the rules a while back so that trips are no longer straight reds (they used to be).
Every infraction will have a grading somewhere on the scale, which is also affected by the severity of the infraction. He's caught a two game ban because it was a ridiculously stupid and blatant trip. He was stepped and beaten and just swiped the legs clean from under the Fax player. One of the dumbest things I've seen a player do on a rugby pitch tbh. Completely inexcusable, George is his own worst enemy at times in that he has all the enthusiasm in the world but lacks the ability to control and focus it.

It's funny really. From my viewpoint it just looked like Flangan had run into him and maybe tried to take his head off, more than a trip. Just shows how the angle you view something from can change what you think occurred.

It happened right in front of me and i can assure you it was the most blatent trips ive seen in the 29 years ive been watch RL. 100% deserves his ban,
It was utter madness.
Hes very lucky it appears Wildie is struggling or i think hed find him self sat in the stands this week in addition to the Toulouse and Swinton games

Am I missing something. Last week everybody was saying that Flanagan's brainfart nearly cost us the game and he should be dropped. Now that he has been suspended everyone is up in arms.

Isn't that always the way? You don't want something until you can't have it anymore.

More importantly I think that they may not be as strong next year which is the time when I'd like to think we may be going for promotion.

Yup, spot on mate.

Though we don't know exactly what they mean by 'part time' and it may mean a similar situation to what we've had with a mix.

Also they may be looking to release some players

34-0 to the Bulls at HT

Didn't see that coming...

Listening to commentary from France unbullievable

wow ... just dont want us to force the game in the second half resulting in unenforced errors and the attack breaking down ... manage and close the game down is all i want now. a fat zero would be a bonus

sounds like we are really hungry ... more points coming ..........

zero .... please, dont care how many we score

dont whats happened to widnes, but they just arnt in this at all

50-0

absolute rout .... keep that zero coyb

62-0

come on ... keep em out ... get in

another error from widnes

ft ....62-0 ..... zero is so pleasing ... the attack wow ... a result i really didnt see coming

moving on nicely. Toulouse away is going to be a tough ask, any result there is a bonus. just on the highlights over the last few weeks, our flat attack from the start of the season looks completely different to what we are trying recently. can see depth and runners, we look a different beast

Keyes and confidence are turning this around. Lets hope we are going to hit this rich seam of form just at the right time of the season.
