I do have a problem with the tackle...well the hit actually in so far as the timing off it 2 minutes form the end.... what was he trying to achieve ????

As I have said previously the Cas players had a certain mindset in those last 10 minutes IMHO. Its a hard full contact game so therefore no complaints really but I do believe what goes around comes around.

are you for real,jonny walker was just trying to put a hit on burgess and they clashed heads.no intent what so ever and you are quite right what goes around comes around and im sure over his career walker will be on the recieving end of a few tough tackles has do most players that play the game.

hope luke recovers in minimal time and is back playing in no time.

and thats a Sky Sports copyright video then ?
Someone needs to read and understand the AUP McFld


Some 'experts' might be able to explain the difference between these examples & Walker's hit on Burgess, but they look no different to me, and were no doubt applauded by the tacklers' team's fans at the time.

Hope the lad makes a speedy recovery.

Ok, pedant. Go on Youtube and look up 'Leeds Rhinos big hits.'

You do understand why video links from professional broadcast media aren't allowed anywhere on RLFans don't you ?

I hope you do anyway, I'd hate for you to get the legal bill.

It was a mickey poor attempt at a tackle which bordered on the reckless, and could have left both of them seriously injured. The clash of heads was accidental, the dancing around afterwards was not, or do you people have such thick skulls that you do not realise when there has been major head contact?

The chanting from the inbreds whilst the medical team were fitting the neck brace is about par for the course, and I doubt that we are going to miss your continued participation in SL

No compalints about the hit or the accidental clash of heads its a tough game and they are all big boys and as I have said karma will have its day.

What I do have a slight beef about is the mindset of some of the Cas players with 10 minutes to go. This was evident in the wardance afterwards whilst a fellow pro is badly injured on the floor. WELL OUT OF ORDER IN MY BOOK.
