The slow play the balls, the risk of head injuries and the MRP coming after players is going to make things difficult. The Smith tackle he has mitigation with Farrell touching the player but league games shouldn’t count towards discipline in the WCC anyway, it would give Penrith an unfair advantage.

Watts does that all the time. Probably just about a red. I thought Keighran got hit with one as well when he dropped the ball.

Mago yet again changed the game when he came on.

I loathe what’s happened to our game over the last 5 years.

That’s never a red for me that.

Whilst i agree with the Watts decision and would have also understood if Smith went too i really think this season could be the last as a RL supporter. I just can't see myself enjoying it next season. I will see how it goes but i can see myself switching off after a few games and never switching back on. Rugby League just wont be rugby league without controversy and bad tackles. We can thank the thug Bobby Goulding and his mates for that one.

Nah don't see owt wrong with it the Smith tackle however was straight red he won't be playing for a while, shame with WCC round the corner still you have to overcome adversity.

Kevin Brown just compared Ash Handley's try to Martin Offiah's Wembley try.


Oreet Kev yeah

Mago and Dupree are immense tonight.
Thank goodness winter rugby is long gone!

Feels like watching a Challenge Cup match from the early 90's. BBC, Muddy pitch, early darkness

And they say sarcasim is dead!!

No it isn't

You are top of the league after your home win over the mighty London. You will stay there all season
