Any contact? So, I'm guessing these examples should have been a penalty against you, then. All show your players making contact with opposition players' head in the tackle:



I think not. Obviously Robbo couldn't take a hit from Ellis. It's ok, not many can when he gets them right.

You've for the answer right there in your description, when you kicked no charge down the man who chased and touched the ball down was offside. We kicked you attempted a charge down therefore =#BF4000playing our men back onside. No rub of the green just a correct interpretation of the rules.

You think not? How do you know they weren't? Where was initial contact?

I never said it wasn't the correct ruling, merely stating the charge down of the ball [icould [/i have gone anywhere, however it went into your players hands.

Going from what yourself and Code 13 have said, [uANY[/u contact with the head is a penalty. Backtracking?

No I'm saying they could well have been given as penalties!

Pointless argument. You think it was illegal. We know it wasn't and have shown the evidence to prove that.

Lets all just move on.

Ellis charged with a Grade B offence.

Great, but illegal.

Illegal shot.

Just in case they didn't see it.

I have a feeling its going to get very quiet on here now.

Nothing on RFL site.

That doesn't mean its not true.

Did I say it wasn't?

Your post has been edited for accuracy

They are examples of pretty much every tackle in our game.

Wrong decision to be charged, will now probably miss our QF this weekend. The RFL are so inconsistent it's laughable.

Yeah it was a penalty every day but not a suspension

What Giants need is someone of Sinfields Character with ability to whinge at the ref and get someone sent off. whether they are guilty or not

i haven't got an bias on this situation as i am wigan fan but he's shoulder clearly makes contact with the head and i'm not surprised by anderson's rant. 5 years ago and that tackle would of caused a mass brawl but everyones to scared to do that now because both teams would of been left with 11 or 10 men.

Its now on the Super League site , and ellis was ALSO cautioned for ANOTHER dangerous contact incident , so lighting does strike twice eh?.

after seeing the replay for the first time I can honestly say that although not malicious, it does appear wreckless and dangerous.
regardless of where ellis' arms are, he hit robbo side on and with contact to the head, im not saying he intended to but still its a dangerous tackle.

we have had men sent off for the same thing in previous games so can understand baloo's frustration.
also looked like a couple of forward passes for hull, but its history now.

Aye but how the hell could the HULL fans bleat after the game that Bentham was on our side

I don't think he was on any side, I just think he was cack.
