Newton out until Easter?

Just like your entitled to your opinions. My opinion is Long is a dirty player and if you think he is so marvellous why don't you go and join the st helens forum coz you obviously think more of there players than you do your own. You never have anything positive to say about any of ours. It's pick, pick, pick constantly.It's negativity all the time and I don't just mean over Danny Orr, although, your're not even big enough to say well done when he has been playing well.

To be fair on Fri night Danny Orr was terrible. What was he thinking with that first kick off, EVERYONE could see it was staying in. He proceded to have a bad match with passes, positioning and a knock on (I think the knock on was him) Moran wasn't looking too bright either and Kev Brown...am not going there

I have to put my 2 pence in. TN may have gone to far but at least he was fired up and willing to give them some. This always happens in Wigan Saints games.

Remember when Feaunati was leathering Wild from behind a couple of good Fridays ago. Long kicked off then too. He is a typical scrum half who winds up players. You have to be willing to take it in my opinion. He run over to Newton and gave him a bit of verbals and a push after Gilmours bit of a slap. He should have been expecting it back as thats what happens in a game.

Saints are a dirty team you only have to look at Fozzard and Wilkin. Maybe no more than us but like it was stated before they likke giving it but not taking it.

For me Newtons tackle on Gilmour will not result in a ban as it wasnt that bad. The latter unless Saints have cited him cannot land him in hot water as he doesnt have a case to answer otherwise.

Anyway bring on next year!

Well Mrs Lam who actually played well on Friday night? Nobody as far as I can remember. I'm struggling to find a man of the match. So it wasn't just Danny but the other 16 men on the park aswell.

Always fired up in these matches, Anderson will get used to it it wasn't just a one way thing. As youve mentioned what about the player that was absolutely no where near the scene but came running over and jumped on him, there was no need for that. Gilmour tackle wasn't that bad, its not our fault if he's landed funny.

Danny Orr stood out as a bad player on Fri night, he switches off at times and just doesn't think and you can't do that in big matches.

what didnt help orr on friday was the fact that over the last few games he as been outstanding then turns in a performence like that

These opinions beggar belief!!!!!

The man was hit square on the jaw, stretchered of and took no further part in the game. Would you be of the same opinion if Fozzard had done exactly the same to Hansen?

If I'm wrong I apologise in advancce - but aren't you one of the posters that thinks Pryce should never be signed because of the (non penalty) incident in the GF with Carney?

[pedro]

The rule states if the player is goign down then its tough luck. Thats what happened on Friday. Ive seen far, far worse than that and ive seen worse go unpenalised.

Pryces was a different matter as he didnt hit him with an arm he drove his head into the floor.

Like Mrs Lam said the Wilkin incident when he run 20 metres to give Scully one was far worse and he didnt go on report. Then again it didnt matter then as the ref had already spoilt the game by missing everything then trying to even it up!

[MrsLam]

Yeah in slow motion it looks terrible in real speed it's just another tackle and he was fine. He sat up and then for some unknown reason went back down again and that was it. He was so hurt that he was pictured laughing with team mates just 20 minutes later.

It's a contact sport, sometimes tackles are higher than they should be and apenalty should be given for that but this one has been made too much of. And like I've said, it was not all one way. Saints were no angels and they can play up to the media as much as they want. Decisions even up don't they?
