I must admit that, from the comments I've seen, even Saints fans are starting to realise the problem is with Knowles, not the disciplinary panel or the referees. I'm also interested in what comes out: not because I thought it was the very worst tackle I've ever seen, but because I'm interested in what kind of message they are going to give to a guy who can't complete a single full game after suspension without belting someone round the head.

You just don't get it do you? Just because he sticks his arm out at head height, the opposition player has a duty of care to avoid his arm and NOT to wilfully attack the arm with his head.
Just imagine the damage that could be done to poor Morgan's arm by someone's head remaining on their shoulders! I mean, if they ran into his arm hard enough they could even cause a tingling sensation or light bruising - why isn't the disciplinary committee clamping down on these players' vicious attacks on Morgan's outstretched arm?
It's not fair I tell you, that poor boy needs the refs to look after him better

Play Minikin, with Wrench as substitute.
Wrench definitely needs to play though, to give him some game time, the next reserve game is too far into the future.

To be fair to Morgan his arm was only raised in the first place because he was explaining to the other player that he'd been to Tenerife for his holidays...*

He will most likely play Mata’utia there but why not Hayes, he as been included in the 21 a couple of times lately so why not give him the spot. On the other side if he did play Mata’utia as I suspect and he then gives Wrench the centre spot scenario is he plays a stormer and keeps it the following week.

Saints fans astonished we have a player banned, clearly forgot about McGuire, Philbin, Dudson and Vaughan must of just been pretend bans for those guys
