Bending the rules eh?
Who's that coming over the hill? It's the tax man to tell you rule bending is a no, no...

I take it you've not seen the video on youtube? Its a much clearer view than the one on Super League Fulltime.

just watched the video and if Micky gets any more than one game for that it will show up the RL for the incompetent, yaarkshire based pillocks they are.
Based on the above, I expect he'll be back for Warrington away.
As for Elima - Once Bradford go belly up he should be just about capable of bagging himself a contract Widnes or Cas.

They are.

That's why they are based where they are.

Link?

Bilko posted it on page 9.

Well some posters on here look a bit silly now.

Can someone point me to where Elima '[ielbows McIlorum three times[/i' please?

To be fair, at the game it looked like he lashed out with his elbow 2/3 times but on that video it shows clearly that he doesn't. MM should get no more than 1 game for it though.

If there was ever a case for sending off sufficient that was it. Single punch, provoked by the other players actions.

Fair enough - elima was trying to get MM off him so he could play the ball - but he shouldn't have been using his elbow which was dangerously close to smacking MM in the face.

If Sam had been doing what elima did there would be a 20 page thread slagging him off - not a debate as to whether the guy who punched him one deserved a ban...............

Where have all these sing Stains fans come from all of a sudden. Had a few calls and texts this weekend with them crowing over our loss.


Maybe if they get another three, or four weekends last weekend okay....until then button it!

Waiting to actually see the incident before commenting...don't want to be saying something that didn't actually happen...

Charged with Grade A offence- Punching 0-1 games

Early guilty plea means no ban and sending off sufficient.

From watching the video pretty fair.

I hope Sammut hasn't been offered an early plea option for having that hair-cut.

Surprisingly correct decision.

What an utter plum MM looks in that video. Punches a player for trying to play the ball quickly



But then he does give the impression of a player about to do something stupid at any time, I remember another game he cost Wigan by getting sent off against Saints a few years back.

Having a very good season mind.

To be fair to him he has calmed down a lot over the last 2 or 3 years. When he first broke in to the team it was as though he was just trying to prove he was a bit of a hard man and got pulled in to stuff like that. The fact he was able to take an early guilty shows he hasn't been up in front of the beak for at least a year.

Friday was daft admittedly but in his defence Elima has been at it all game, every tackle he was involved in with another forward there was a bit of afters at the PTB. It was a tough game and not a lot was going Wigan's way and Micky obviously lost his rag, silly but it happens. He's now got Wakefield and the CC semi to make up for it!

Micky usually plays on the edge but that's his game and without it he wouldn't be the same player. It spilt over on Friday and he needs to learn a lesson from it. It could have cost him a place in a CC semi final and games like that don't come around every day of the week.

Well he did play for Queens

Staggered. The RFL DO realise we are playing Leeds don't they?

I think the fact that MM is from Yorkshire went in his favour.

Very valid point.

Elima was stirring all game but the players need to learn not to react. Thought he would get a game at the most. They don't ban players for semi finals or finals.

He can't put another guilty plea in for 12 months apparently.

Does anyone else smell a "nothing" ban being found on review next week keeping him out of the Leeds game?
