Lima is definitely on thin ice and this may be the last straw where a lot of British fans are concerned. Remember, over in Yorkshire they had a gallows ready for him because, when spoken to at Wembley, he wasn't quite sure who Lance Todd was.

sorry wrong tigers Tiger

I'm surprised Sam didn't get a ban last season for throwing the ball into the empty North Stand...

I Just did, a ball thrown into the crowd is a ball thrown into the crowd however way you look at it, people in the crowd are always at risk of getting hit by a ball from conversions etc. Did you see the guy that got hit by the Brough kick on SL show yesterday, I'm sure he was worse off than whoever Hock hit with the ball, should Brough be in trouble for unnecessarily kicking the ball in the crowd?

It was silly of Hock to throw the ball into the crowd anybody can see that but he's not the first to do it and more is being made of it because it is Gaz Hock.

I think the team should adopt " high fives " after scoring a try because the fans like giving " high fives ", infact we did it quite a lot on Friday unless the players will be hauled before the RFL for incitement towards Staines.

I would prefer if the captain and leadership group appologised to the opposition and offered them some constructive opinions on how they might improve their defence to prevent this awful try scoring happening again. Other options inc

Any player that knocks on -immediately informing the ref
Forward passes - stop play and appologise
Other team scores - all players to applaud politely
Running towards opposition - all players to say "excuse me" to the opposition
Being tackled- the player to jump up from the floor and loudly pronounce "well done that man" to the opposition
Tackling opposition - all players to move politely to one side and say "after you" to their opponent
Oppostion player sin binned or sent off - Coach to remove one of our players so that no "advantage" can be taken
No advantage to be accepeted - The ball and an apology gven to other team

Going forward we will only accept a "moral victory" nothing can be gained from the needless baiting of rival players and fans.

Are you being a little sarcastic here?

Only because there was no-one there to be mortally offended by it.

As St Helens supporters seem to be especially sensitive to Wigan celebrations, perhaps whenever we play them in future, the lads can all be instructed that in no way must they show any emotion other than intense concentration at any stage during the game - unless, in the event of victory, it be deep dejection, and only then as an indication that they totally empathise with the Saints fans. Maybe they could also take the field wearing black arm-bands as a sign that they are basically sorry for living.

On a brighter note Rush seemed happier now that Saints won a game. Watching his stange behaviour I would be worried about the pressure affecting him long term.

Hang on, I don't think you can do this as Saint's find the "five" word offensive.

When will Hock apologise for vilely assaulting a Stains player's finger with an unpleasant part of his anatomy during the Good Friday game?

Hang on a minute, forget the apology, Hock should be publicly executed in Stains town centre for this crime against humanity.

Looks now as though the Saints anti Hock lobby has got its way, see todays St Helens Star. He's being referred to a "compliance unit" enquiry where a decision will be made as to weather he's to face disciplinary action for lobbing the ball into the crowd. This will open a right old can of worms.

Yes. From this point on, kicks at goal will have to be angled so perfectly that not only do they have to pass between the uprights, they then must drop back onto the pitch without entering the stand.

It's been noted that this won't bother St Helens too much as they've had significantly fewer shots at goal this season than most other SL clubs.

Just had a look on disciplinary web page and noticed not one stains player was cited for the latest two rounds!
Have they suddenly become ultra squeaky clean now.
I seem to remember Sam getting felled by Hohaia and there must have been others??

They'll be putting nets up like in the NFL.

It is actually the match commisioner who has reported the incident to the RFL to look at. IMO nothing will come of it anyway.

what happened to the brain dead moron from the crowd that tried to confront the wigan players on the pitch, did he get thrown out of the ground, has he been banned from future games or is his behaviour acceptable at Langtree park....??????

I've no idea what happened to the idiot as I was in the North Stand. If they get him He should get his just desserts.

see what you did with that

I believe he spent a night in the cells for his troubles

He didn't throw a ball into the crowd, so they let him off.
