Just to clarify, I agree that Bradford have gotten a raw deal.

You know it's bad when even the wire fans are not defending the decision.

I've seen players make that shot on grounded opponents many times; McGoldrick dropped one on Dale Morton at BV last season and I believe, got away with it. I suppose Bridge will say he was trying to dislodge the ball.

Either way, it was a cheap shot and he should have walked.

rugby league gods strike again !

top of the league...good night gents

Nothing will happen to him because he plays for Warrington. The RFL are so inconsistent with things like this, it's a joke.

Tried to dislodge ball, no harm done. You'll be saying its against health & safety next. Give me strength !

Oh FFS

Don't be silly.
You can't attack a prone player with the elbow no matter how much you want it to be true.

He was just giving him a closer look at his tattoo.

Nothing to see here.......

and there was me recently saying that at least UK refs have the balls to send someone off as opposed to their aussie counterparts.

LOL



Running before you can walk AGAIN!

Typical clueless Wanky fan.

Ganson might have?

Hallibut is of course from the land of the cheese-eating surrender monkeys, not the UK...



He's still come on no end though, and I suggest there are plenty worse.

Ah, there's actually wire fans seriously defending it - living up to their reputation perfectly.

Leeds will ultimately benefit next week when bridge is suspended. Alibert seems to make a lot of decisions without consulting his touchjudges or the video ref, the only problem is most of them are wrong. Leeds suffered against wigan a few weeks ago and bradford have suffered tonight. The law of averages say that if you get Halibut again his bad decisions will even themselves out..........I'm not too sure that theory is true.

you are definitely in the top three of total d!cks on this site.

Care to enlighten us as to what this reputation is?

Why would Ganson have sent him off?
That reputation he had for dismissals has largely gone now.
He was in charge at Headingly when Ablett ran 30 yards to smash his elbow/forearm into Sam Tomkins' face. Ganson didn't send Ablett off.
The Leeds player got a 3 match ban plus fine from the DC.

Posted this on our forum already...

Chris Bridge is a cheap shot aficionado and is up there with Bailey and Ryan Mcgoldrick, although he is not quite at the level of Issac Luke or Steve Matai.

Anyway, that attempt at a elbow / Flop / forearm was not as bad as some on here think IMO.

1-2 games will cover it, if he had connected then maybe 3-4. Intent is one thing, but the fact that he completely missed says he had second thoughts on the way down and pulled out.

Intent should not be punished as severely as actual contact imo, as it is all down to interpretation by the judiciary / Ref and as far as i am concerned that shower should not be allowed to input their severely disjointed and non consistent opinions.

It either is, or it is not.

That effort falls into the latter.

Dislodging the ball one on one is part of our game. He clearly attacked the ball with his palm in the first instance if you care to look past your bias

Was that before or after he dropped his elbow into the tackled players chest while he was defenceless on the ground?

Doesn't it just annoy you, i flipping hope so !

And???? You was top at end of season last yr and bottled it.

Nobody is denying Wire are top of the league,what is undeniable is Bridges use of the elbow,whats the point of it?
Don`t be sexist b.t.w.,ladies come on here too.

I'll take you back to my previous reply to yourself.
I'll happily remind you of this everytime to post your rubbish on the subject.
