Not sure tbh mate. Haven't seen a rule specifically about that, whereas you specifically aren't allowed to dummy the ptb.

Should be a rule really, I was getting p*ssed off due to how close it was to the line. He could easily dummy until we dropped our guard and enable him to just put the ball down under the sticks otherwise.

A difficult one to police too.


I admit I am a little sketchy on the rules around this issue.


To my mind, Roberts was at fault for "giving himself up", in the manner of his actions.

I mean what on earth was he doing?

However, dummying at the ptb could turn our game into a laughing stock.

could someone please tell me why roberts got 10 minutes, leon prce clearly taps the ball on the floor and roberts has every right to grab his arm. the ball is back in play

never a penalty, never a sinbinning full stop!!! Dummying a penalty is not allowed he did that twice - so could have actually been a penalty to Wigan. He also dropped the ball so could have been a scrum to Wigan!! Meli could have and maybe should have gone off for the trip on Roberts. Then can't remember which saints player it was but holding down Roberts in the same incident should have been sin binned.
