Ferres tackle

Post by Wigan_forever1985 »

Will be interesting to see if recent events effect the possible ban here, IMO it was much much worse than the tackle which results in the injury to Alex McKinnon and the culprit there got 7 games

Hudds would have won this without the sending off. Deserved to be sent off though and if the RFL are serious about dangerous tackles they need to put a mark down.

IMO it's the worst tackle I've seen in a while

He had no other influence either

Just hope the next time we see a spear tackle that the same happens and a red card and not put on report.

Changed the game the tackle and he cost them the game as much as Bentham.

If the tackle had been on a player with more weight than Lomas, would it have had the same result and looked as bad?

I don't for one minute think it was intentional, but it happened and Bentham did the right thing in producing the Red Card.

I disagree he had the opportunity to put lomax to the ground safely or indeed softly he basically pile drived him into the ground, just because lomax was uninjured shouldn't make it any less of an offence

Then you would see a 3 gave ban enough? That's what McLean got for his tackle. Although Ferres tackle was far worse even if outcome was better with no injury.

Suggest you watch it again. The tipping was initiated by Lomax grabbing Ferres leg so Lomax contributed to his downfall. Not saying it is not two to four matches but the full intent was not there. As for McKinnon, if it was not for him ducking his head it was not even a penalty. Sad to say but Seven matches is a knee jerk reaction to a horrific accident.
