I have not once said otherwise. I agree with you, it wasn't a dirty game.

I don't like the fact that players who are on the receiving end of crusher tackles are said to be play acting. It's can be very painful. There are areas of the game where play acting needs to be stopped, which everyone clearly recognises. But I don't think crusher tackles are one of the areas.



Is that actually true though?? I've never said it myself. Cas last season were exceptional.

It all started with Fash, nothing wrong with the tackle on LMS, but Fash pushed his head into the face of LMS as he was trying to get up, then the "handbags" started, along came Washbrook and ended up going into the side of the head of LMS with his knee. I think Washbrook just wanted to rough him up but you have to keep your knees away from the head, he should have just joined the handbags instead.

Well you need to have a quiet word with Radford, pre game he was quoted as saying "We will be playing on the Cusp of Legality". Just watched the replay again with Houghton, prior to other two Hull players coming in to compress the tackle, Houghton was twisting Richardson neck as though he didn't know if his head was screwed on with a left or right hand thread, surprised the disciplinary have ignored it like most grapple tackles these days.

Do you really believe this to be the case??

How wrong can you be?

Yes I’m surprised anybody doesn’t!

Just to want to be a ref you need to be a bit odd.
