I'm struggling to see anything really obviously dangerous or see a likely cause in either tbh.
The TJ one is plain to see but Joe's didn't look out of place in any game, but I guess when you've got a load of big blokes hanging on you in a tackle while you're trying to make progress it puts an extraordinary pressure on joints.
I don't see any obvious conduct or technique intended to cause injury to Joe's knee.
Sickner for Joe for sure, speedy recovery Joe, not great for the team either but we're in a hellish run of season ending injuries to excellent players, it is what it is.'"
I agree. I think it's not really right to accuse players of deliberately injuring each other if it's not clear and obvious. I'm as red white and blue as anyone but I wasn't out of my seat at the time ...live in Beverley and couldn't make the match
