watts was stupid and will rightly cop a ban but crosby wasn't hurt at all whereas faurimo was knocked clean out, has suffered a brain injury and will miss at least a week of rugby. I'll bet that watts gets a longer ban than patton though

It doesn't excuse Watts I know, but if Thaler had been on top of his job and penalised Crosby like he should have done for interfering with Watt's and not allowing him to play the ball, there wouldn't have a problem.

It did not benefit us having Gale off the field. It wasn't the worst tackle you'll see but he got a 2 game ban on top of his red. He obviously has major issues with discipline. The majority of players won't get sent off 4 times in their 15 year career let alone 4 times in 11 months.
As pointed out, Gale played within 6 days and hence did not fail the concussion test.

Watts is a good player but is sadly as thick as thuk
In a televised tv game why would he ever wish to do that? A lengthy ban awaits for the regular at Red Hall this past year
If he ever wants to progress his career and to be an International player then he urgently needs to engage his brain otherwise he will always be remembered as Numb Nuts

For me thats the tragedy of it all. He's got the lot but will throw it all away if he continues like this. Not sure if it's been mentioned before but soes any one think connor ratchets things up and then takes a back seat while others get sent of. certainly seemed the case against Wire.

Of course it’s only ever the s squeaky clean types that get the international call ups (Morley, McDermott, Newton, Mason, etc)

It was stupid , but no way as bad as the patton sending off, the game had stopped and he took a cheap shot in frustration when hed just relaxed. Like jake said watts will probably get the bigger ban. And agree with watts , that was no headbutt, he bumped his head into crosby with no real intent to cause damage , didnt affect crosby at all

Not at all.
Jake has always been like that and long may it continue.
He started winding Hill up after Patton got sent off and Hill stood there arguing with the ref.
That had all cooled down when Watts had his brain explosion.

It shows how far down the pecking order Watts is when Scott Taylor gets a trip to OZ rather than him
Watts is a good player with a nice offload game in him but he certainly lacks the brains and application to make it as an international player judging by his current efforts shown,A bit like his best buddy Westerman
