Really sad for the lad who's been a good signing fear at his age this could be the end of his career

Is this the incident that Knowles is being charged with, or something else from the game (open question)?WIGIAN wrote: ↑Tue Apr 11, 2023 2:47 pm Shame for Cooper no nonsense grafter if Mago had 50% of Coopers attitude he'd be smashing it. . Over on Redvee I see its us citing Knowles due to the injury sustained sometimes the stupidity beggars belief, funny this morning I said there was nothing in the Knowles challenge and still do its just an unlucky outcome no malice .
What a bloody hypocrite! I came off twitter blah, blah and then he says that?josie andrews wrote: ↑Tue Apr 11, 2023 4:59 pm Super League star slams "disgraceful tackle" that ended Wigan Warriors Mike Cooper’s season
Meanwhile, Saints head coach Paul Wellens has defended Knowles.
“We got a phone call from the Match Review Panel on Monday that Morgan Knowles had been charge with a Grade D,” Wellens said.
“What I would say in this situation is no coach or player wants players to suffer injuries but injuries are part and parcel of the sport. Ours is a collision sport and things can go wrong at times.
“I know Morgan Knowles as a person and how tough he plays the game and how honest a person is. He doesn’t go out on the field to injure players.
“I came off Twitter 12 months ago now for good reason, rugby league is about opinion and everyone has them. What social media does is it gives everyone a platform to share that opinion.”
