Quote:Gaslight wrote noticed that the game against Hull F.C. and Castleford, a lot of tackles from Huddersfield players (mainly; Wild, Kirmond and Brown) were around the neck and head, looking at the RFL discipline reports, Wild and Kirmond have received a few warning letters already about tackling techniques - so have a fair few other Huddersfield players, so it isn't going un-noticed, the RFL seemingly don't have the bottle to dish out fines/bans to these players even though they are persistent with the "wrestling techniques".

The part Clarkey was looking at about how long they hold down in the tackle isn't the problem imo, most teams are slowing the PTB down too much now trying to copy the NRL last year.

I'd imagine a higher penalty count against Huddersfield is a reflection of Huddersfields gameplan - to grind teams down. They are going to give away penalties doing it, but that is one of the consequences of playing that sort of game. However, it does have its benefits at the same time. Huddersfield have done nothing differently to other teams except they have done it better and have been more clinical. All of the best teams push the boundaries, it is part of the game IMO.
