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.

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?

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

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.
