...the state of Matty Ashurst's legs after the Salford vs Castleford match.

Should this game have gone ahead?

Blimey.

That's horrible.

I'd liked to have seen a picture of them once they were cleaned up. I think the paint taken from the graphics on the pitch make it look much worse than it actually is.

Of course there are similar injuries sustained during the summer months when the pitches are hard.

Aren't we all glad it's a summer sport now?

all the pictures of mens legs on here. Has no one got a picture of Tanya Arnolds legs.

Are there any players who haven't posted a picture of their knees on twitter this weekend?

Jesus! They are quite hairy aren't they?

Tanya arnolds?

Did any of you see the photo of Richie Mathers legs that he posted on Twitter after playing on the ipitch,worse than the above photo.

Thegame last night was only played due to it been on the telly,otherwise that would/should have been called off.

This is pathetic. Any cuts or bruises sustained in any game this year will just get the reaction 'well it would have happened on the I-pitch'.

I've seen both pictures and think ashursts knees were worse. I think this is proof, even though it was very bad conditions at Salford that cuts, bruises and grazes are part and parcel of the game.

I've not really heard any other complaints coming from the game so I'm going to credit Salford for getting a game played in the opening week of SL.

Other cluns should applaud the iPitch; if it's as bad as they say, then the home team will be crippled for most of the season and so there will be at least one bye for everybody.

I'll tell you what's pathetic - all those s on twitter giving any player who speaks out about the pitch abuse. They would have you think that RL used to play on stone and glass!

You having a laugh?!


I've had far worse than that on consecutive weekends throughout the season. Ashurst has barely got any skin left.

Mathers is just being a tart.

Mathers is making a fuss so no one talks about how rubbish he was.

Which game were you watching ? yes everyone saw the mistake in not kicking the ball dead, but apart from hat he had a pretty good game. Made plenty of metres, made his tackles and scored a decent try.
If thats rubbish, i'll have a bag full.

That'll sting in the bath. Doesn't the new Salford ground have under soil heating?

Yes, but they decided they didn't need it on Saturday

How am I being a keyboard warrior?

When the new summer season starts for the amateurs, I'll post you a few pics of my knees for comparison. It's part of the game.
