Only way around it for Wellens is to say he’ll be talking to him about it or style it out and just say ‘it’s legal, so we’ll be going with them going forward’.
Was going to post the same. The one I saw from Bell, he hit the hip/midriff of Austin(?) so was lucky

Paul Wellens on Knowles horrific hip drop on Cooper.

2nd one was on the hip/thigh, so not too bad but the first was pretty much a carbon copy. No control of his body, risking his own safety and not able to ensure he wouldn’t injure his opponent. Wellens calls it out now or admits he doesn’t give a flyer but ignore it and he looks daft.

Just seen the other one online, didnt look good considering Wellen's previous comments. Bet he wont mention tonight unless questioned
Nothing at all in the post match but I can let him off on that (as he’s unlikely to have seen them). Once he sees them in the review, I’m sure he’ll call them out in his mid week press conference
What’s sick is that after finishing 2 players seasons and injuring 2 others last week when still continues this week and attempts to kneecap Dupree. Only goes to prove what I said.

I noticed that. Really poor from Asiata but typical Leigh fans with the blinkers on. Leigh couldn’t keep up with us today. Was too easy
