I've noticed this with a few club that give away penalties when they know they have the score line in there favour, these professional fouls should be picked up on and remove the said player for ten.

today there two head highs neither worth the red but one a yellow, Ali's was accidently where Amor did take his swing to the extreme

Out of the 3 challenges in question I think the only one that was intentional and deserving of a ban was the Wilkin one.

You are wrong. Amor was a bad one.

It's just an opinion, I think it's too early to say if either of us are right or wrong as such. Obviously I've only seen it once, as have you I imagine. My initial reaction is that it wasn't as bad as the Wakefield fans made out, or Wigan fans for that matter.

From what i've seen of Amor previously i'd agree with you 100%. On the Lomax issue i'm sure i can remember a similar situation with him last season where he slipped and got caught head high when he wouldn't have done if he'd stayed upright. I think there was quite a bit of debate about it at the time as it did result in him leaving the field.

Thats right its just a cop out for refs.

Full intent by Amor pulled his arm back to swing the haymaker simple as.

I think Amor should be banned. He was already angry as Matt Ryan ran at him when he had his back turned. It was sheer frustration on Amor's part and a bit out of character from him.

The Lomax incident was pathetic to say the least. I actually liked Lomax and have been been an advocate of his. However, he knew exactly what he was doing yesterday. Im not saying he didn't get caught. Although he did slip. I think Lomax stayed down for the pen and milked every second. Funny how he got up once Ali got put on report.

Does this condone a red card???????????????????????????????????

Not according to Mr (aptly named) Hicks who was contacted by an irate fan

The referees reply is below:

my view was that contact was not direct to head, am sure they'll look in the morning and see if it was straight to jaw

Result: Dixon broken Jaw out for ????????

McHoodlum: 3 matches

And the RFl wonder why fans despair of match day officials

Absolutely - another one of those indefensible ones that certain players have a knack for; McIlorum is one of the biggest houses in SL, so it's no surprise to see him involved.

Amor's haymaker swinging arm to Ryan's head was clearly violent conduct and should also be banned as Wilkin should very brave smashing a winger.

I wonder if Riley and Ryan had been injured from these fouls would the RFL had looked back at the footage like they did for Collis with the Bradford player and give bans to both Wilkin and Amor?

How exactly will banning Amor and Wilkin benefit US?

not a jot, that's rugby league!

I see poore is up before the disip com too

Not much help to us .But at least Ali in the clear

Think you missed of Tim Roby - Grade F - Deliberately obstructing Wakefield from winning - 10-20 game ban. I'd rather have that then either St Helen's player being banned

Well I've just watched it on SL Full Time and for me he's lucky to get away with a Grade B - It was a shocker and quite deliberate.
Have you seen it yet? Still think it wasn't that bad???

I haven't seen it yet. At the game I wasn't convinced it was a bad one but if I've got it wrong I'll say so. The Wilkin one was stupid from him and he deserves a ban.

No send of this morning for Storm player with dumping Newcastle player on his head.
Turns out Alex McKinnon has fractures to C4& C5 vertebrae, not sure on spinal cord damage yet.
Cameron Smith was heard complaing to ref blaming McKinnon for tucking his head in.
An awful looking tackle that has turned out much worse.

I've just watched it again. Looks bad. My comments yesterday now look a tad silly thanks to Mr.Amor. Quite clearly deserves a ban.

If this blatant, cynical and dangerous attack of the head doesn't constitute a red card then I have no idea what does. It was as bad as Morley against the Aussies. I like Amor but that swinging arm was indefensible and I have no idea how Roby failed to show him the red card. Spineless.

Not quite!

And to those suggesting Lomax milked a penalty: he has yet to do that in the whole of his Saints first team career so it's just ridiculous. He clearly hit his head when he slipped: his feet shot from underneath him, which no doubt at first sight looked like a big whack from Lautiti but which in fact was Lomax just going splat on the floor. If you hit your head on the floor without any means of breaking your fall you will be dazed. Hence he took a little time to get up.

As for Amor's shot: that was awful. I have no idea why he wasn't sent off. I didn't know his reputation previously but I hope that isn't the start of something we would rather not have. We have enough to deal with in Jon Wilkin who has now left us without an organising halfback of any description for the most important game of our season so far plus Leeds. I haven't seen Wilkin's tackle but I can imagine it because I saw the one he was banned for last year.

Amor is eligible for EGP and Saints usually claim it and move on. But Wilkin isn't eligible as he was banned 11 months ago and so he'll get two matches. If his tackle was anything like Amor's then he deserves it.

However, us fans don't.
