Just because the England game was played at Leeds doesn't mean it was only Leeds supporters that were booing him - he is disliked by a lot of supporters at other clubs. A player with all that talent, natural speed and agility should be loved by everyone at international level but is down to him to earn the respect of England supporters not to just expect it. This is a very good first step and I applaud him for taking it and look forward to seeing him in an England shirt in the four nations.

Like all the other England players you mean?

I don't expect everyone to love him, but the fact that he's wearing an England shirt should at least mean he doesn't get booed.

I don't think it does - the fact is (whether you believe it or not as a Wigan supporter) he is renowned for being a cheat and for showing a lack of respect to the other team's supporters. Why should we just forget that because he pulls on an England shirt. However, this apology is a good, genuine first step imo.

I agree.

To achieve what you're hoping for, however, requires fans of RL in this country to be able to check their club agendas at the gate for internationals. They don't though. Tomkins isn't the first to get the treatment while on international duty and he won't be the last. The "home" crowd has picked at least one England/GB player to get stuck into at almost every test match I've been to, be it at Leeds, Wigan, Hudds, Hull or wherever.

I'll be off down to Wembley again in November hoping for it to be different, but it's more hope than expectation.

and so the next time a player is offside or throws a forward pass we should boo them when they play internationally because [iobviously[/i theyre cheating?



also i still dont understand why sam is a "cheat". yes, hes a little git but i wouldnt say he was a cheat.

Unlike Sinfield and McGuire.

Yes, all infringements while jumping for a high kick are sent to the disciplinary. Aren't they? They're not? Oh.

I really wouldn't like to imagine what you'd be like if you'd lost!
