When did the rules on tripping change, I thought the offence was a straight red?

To be fair I think Ben C was lucky that Hadley scored. If he hadn't they'd have had to look again and debate a penalty try and he'd have had to walk!

Blatant trip for me

Changed a few seasons ago IIRC. Don't agree with it personally - think tripping is cowardly and dangerous and can easily cause serious injury. Should have stayed a straight red IMO.

It changed a while ago.

To your benefit then....was worse than the useless lump of lairds red

Didn't Shaul trip Burns in the last derby and go unpunished? Stopped a try, too.

When Greg McCallam was the referee's coach in the 90s he deemed that a trip was another form of obstruction and should be punished as such.

The worst decision yesterday was when yeaman delayed the play the ball for a good 5 seconds to allow someone to get into dummy half. How the ref didn't penalise that I'll never know.

He's lucky cocakyne didn't kick him in the head never mind tripping him

Yes he did, and yes it did. You won't get a reply though, it's Cockayne hunting season.

Quite ironic that post, as it was your woman beater that got sent off.

cockayne hunting season starts 1st january and finishes 31st december to be fair

You were looking the other way earlier in the season then were you?

Was at work so didn't see it.....saw it yesterday as was there and it was a straight red for me.

2 Things.

1 Convenient that isn't it.

2 Learn the rules of RL.

Convenient that I was at work and didn't see it....my,sorry for having the gall to have a job.Learn the. Rules...I do know that tripping isn't a straight red as was changed but my opinion,on a HULL FC internet opinion forum is that it should be a red.



How convenient that I disagree with you

You can think it 'should' be all you want the FACT is that it isn't chief.

You want to be thankful really or you could have had another player sent off earlier in the season.



Or are we playing 'Different rules for FC'?

We'll if this player did trip then he should have walked...it should be a red for all players...how's that?....as for different rules...give over dopey....everyone knows that's reserved for the bigger clubs.....Mcllorums head high on peacock and suttons spear tackle or didn't you see them.

Yet on another thread you seem to be hinting that Yeaman on Burns without the ball is fine.

No doubt if the boot on the other foot you would be screaming blue murder.

As I've explained on the other thread, Yeaman didn't hit Burns off the ball.

I wouldn't bother Kosh......he sees what he wants too see

Oh the irony

How can I comment on something I didn't see...Jesus,you are thick.What about the gunner headbanger flattening Rankin...that was high

No it wasn't.

It was a poor decision against us which started Hulls mini revival.
