The worst decision to my mind was not giving Matatia at least a yellow card for that deliberate fist in the face in the tackle.

I thought Walmsley was well shackled by the Cats pack but the best tackle on him was by young and small Arthur Morgue, arms wrapped around the rampaging Walmsley and immediately felled instantly in an almighty thud.

I said last time we played saints Walmsley strength is that everyone seems scare to tackle him and he gets way to much space/defenders standing off.

As soon as he's targeted he is less effective and makes errors.

Still the best prop I'm SL though.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

It's how players are coached to tackle nowadays. First in, stop the player, second lock the ball, third bring him down, or something like that. Walmsley has tremendous upper body strength but thinish legs. First in against him should go for his legs.

I agree with you, he's the best rampaging prop in SL for sure, great defender also.

There’s a good one playing for Toulouse today who is still SL standard - Casey. We should have signed him for 12 months.

True. H made a mistake leaving Wigan. I should have said Casty.

Can someone explain to me please about the rules? I feel I am getting hopelessly confused here. Do refs have the choice of giving six again or a penalty for inside the 10? I was under the impression I'd seen six again given for it all season, but in the GF there were penalties for that?
