What contact was this?

Was it the one where the KR player stayed down until the whistle was blown but then was able to move all of a sudden?

With flowers, if thats the standard being set i look forward to see a number of Saints and wire players on the sideline banned as well.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

I always cringe when I see that type of tackle and, although I know they don't mean to cause harm, when it goes wrong is can cause real damage and I wish we'd cut it out. For Salford we'll be able to play both Clarke and Bullock, every cloud....

Just as we were thinking that we had more prop forwards than we needed!
Good job we have Josie's favourite prop held in reserve?

Who is that?🤔🤔
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.

that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Flower looks to have received a "fair" ban for what looked an unnecessary tackle at the time. Just stupid - still he gets to spend more time on the sidelines

Yes I bloody know transfer fees do not count on the salary cap for those illiterates that need it explaining to them because they assume everyone is as thick as they are :roll:

Just seen Flower's on Wigan TV around 27 minutes and deserves a ban TBF.

Agreed, he goes in with no control. It is mistimed and he hits just above the ankle. I would prefer a ruling that says the third man cannot directly target the legs. It should be possible to wrap the arms around the thighs and drop down although that would probably also put pressure on the joints.
