Nope.

It was their captain setting a fine example. Questioning refs is apparently much much worse even if its part of the captains role.

Oh yes. I have to say I was very disappointed to see their captain act in such a violent manner.

I am - not moaning about the defeat (proud of our efforts and felt we were competitive, so can't ask for much more against the World Club champs). My arguement was about Sinfield's attitude/value, not debating the loss.

Are you one of those that believes the claim on the KR boards that Sinfield spat at Bentham?

No - I think we're already there and proud of it! You see if the ordinary plebs hate you it means you are successful. Much like the Wigan of old or Man Utd at present. You have attained a level of performance of which they can only dream. Don't hurt your neck observing us on our pedestal! Mwah!

Violent?!! Accidental/clumsy more like. Vella is far from a dirty player. The incident (AFAIK) was not reported to the RL (well, Vella has had no disciplinary appearances yet anyway).
Best of luck to the guy, hate to see anyone get injured, but like I said, Vella is definitely not a violent guy.
